The saga continues .......... more poor quality

Riverside still refuses to take care of ANY of their poor workmanship. We went through Mediation and of course that failed as they are unwilling to do anything. Now we are waiting to see if we have to go through forced arbitration as they had that nice little clause in our contract. If they fail to do so in a certain period of time, which I hope happens, then the CCB can take over the case and come out and look at this stuff. We have lived there over a year and still no resolution. This is the worst experience hands down I have ever had with any purchase (large or small).

We continue to find more problems and have to do fixes ourselves as its getting ridiculous to wait this long and not have the enjoyment of our first home and dream house.


Our garage floor is now breaking up (see below):






We also found that the pseudo shutters on the front of our house don't go up high enough and you can see the bare wood that they mount to behind them. The front of our house is mostly stone and they didn't cover this bare area with the stone either (It was only a $15,000 add on , so what the hell right?)
We have also recently noticed that in both of our upstairs bathroom, the paint is sagging / peeling off around the shower areas. Why? I have no idea. I'm sure it probably because of moisture, but you would think they would prep this area knowing that this is a high moisture area. I have never seen this in any other home or apartment we have rented so I know its not typical.
More updates to come............
