Asked on Feb 20th, 2018 on Breach of Contract - Florida
More details to this question:
We had new kitchen cabinets built and installed by a local contractor in 2015. In 2016 drywood termites revealed themselves in various areas of the new cabinetry. We did not have drywood termites before. We have hire a pest control company to deal with the problem. After twenty-five visits, the termites are still apparent. Do we have a case against the contractor to receive restitution?

I would expect low under the facts presented - with discovery 1 year later. This would require an expert entymologist to support such a claim. Other than that its a home owners claim to start.
