Building question

12 years ago

last modified: 12 years ago

I am building a house in a new community. All my paperwork that they had me sign off on and also all advertisement says my downstairs ceilings are 10'10 and my upstairs ceilings are 11'2. The drywall was just completed and we were measuring upstairs ceilings and they are all about 9'6. Do we have any recourse on this with builder? When I questioned it they blew it off to "marketing typo error". That's not really acceptable to me considering I thought I was getting 2 more feet of ceiling.

Not acceptable to me neighter. Was this a contract you signed? If so, hold builder to it. It should've been checked for typo's before papers were submitted to you
