|
|
| We ran into a problem while we were having our house built. The entire frame is up and the roof is on. They are working on the inside at the moment. We have thick square block windows in your basement and we noticed 2 of them were cracked. Could they have cracked because of the builders? |

| It's strange seeing such thick windows crack. I would say it is because the house is still settling a little. When the house shifts there is a good chance something is going to give. |

| It's nothing out of the norm. We've had this happen a few times while building houses. It's up to the contractor to replace them though. |

Thanks for the replies everyone, I just heard back from the contractor and he said he will see what he can do to replace them. I really hope it all works out for the best.  |
