There Are Deadlines in Texas


When it comes to construction defect claims in Texas, timing matters.

  • You typically have 10 years from the date your pool was completed to file a claim.
  • Depending on the type of warranty provided, that timeline may shrink to just six years.
  • If your pool is part of a larger development or HOA project, different timelines could apply.

Even if your builder has made repairs or offered temporary fixes, the clock may still be ticking. The sooner you reach out, the more likely we can secure the documentation and expert evaluation needed to build a strong case.

Don’t let a negligent builder run out the clock on your right to compensation. Contact Wenholz Law today.

Signs Your Pool May Have a Construction Defect

Not all pool problems are obvious at first. Many homeowners across Dallas are discovering major defects that started with small signs. If you notice any of the following, your pool may have been improperly built:

  • Cracks that keep reappearing after being repaired
  • Gel-like substances seeping from concrete joints
  • Uneven surfaces or flaking concrete
  • Leaks that worsen over time
  • Shifting tiles or separation from the pool shell

Even if your builder already attempted repairs, you may still have a case if the problem persists. We can help investigate and determine if legal action is warranted.

Who Can Be Held Responsible?

When a pool begins to break down due to poor construction, the builder isn’t always the only party at fault. Several entities may share liability, depending on how your pool was designed, built, and managed.

  • General contractors and subcontractors may be responsible for using the wrong materials or failing to follow proper concrete mixing procedures.
  • Developers or HOAs that oversaw the project may have ignored red flags or failed to verify construction quality.
  • In some cases, engineers or design professionals could share blame if the original plans were flawed.

If you’ve been denied help or dismissed by the builder, legal action may be your best option. At Wenholz Law, we work to uncover who’s truly responsible, and build a case that holds them accountable.
