Rather than immerse your self in technical legal labels, consider that in the absence of an agreement limiting warranties -- which it sounds as if you don't have -- a contractor impliedly warrants that his work will be done in a workmanlike manner. That warranty was breached here. The concern you then have is whether the statute of limitations has run on this claim, which it has not.

The Finance Code defines “commercial loan” to mean a loan that is made primarily for business, commercial, investment, agricultural, or similar purposes.
