    Default Threat of Legal Action

    My question involves business law in the state of: Wisconsin

    My Company was contracted by two individuals to build a garage/ house. In my contract it lists the work to be included in my bid which includes roofing. The property owners signed a contract with a separate roofing company and paid them directly. Now the homeowner is claiming that his roof is leaking and damaging the inside drywall. I contacted the homeowner and inspected the damage which was minimal. Because of snow buildup on the roof, the company who installed the roof and myself assured the owner that when the snow melted enough we would come back out and fix the problem. Now he is threatening to take legal action against my company for a whole new roof. Does he have any legal grounds?

    Anyone can sue anyone else at any time for anything but that doesn't mean they will win.

    Based on your post of only minimal damage & offer to fix the problem, in my opinion, I don't see a case for a whole new roof.
