Z Construction did a horrendous, unprofessional job. They removed the entire roof and left the house sitting exposed to rain and snow all winter. Perry Zender clamed under oath that he did not cover the exposed house because covering it was not stipulated in his contract!!!! He then rebuilt my home without the necessary permits and code compliance. He double charged and also charged for services not performed. Without a framing permit Z Construction rebuilt the house on the fly with numerous engineering and construction defects. Perry Zender substituted a lessor model furnace for the high efficiency model contracted for and pocketed an upcharge of over 100%. The entire new house was not attached to the foundation nor built code compliant. Perry Zender tried to deny that he had removed all the walls until he saw I had photos of just the remaining floor. Professional building inspectors and engineers including those of Z Construction testified that the building was subpar and at risk for collapse in extenuating circumstances such as a mild earthquake. The claim was settled last year in arbitration with Z Construction paying more than $300,000.00 for defective building, my attorney fees, and their own. KIRO TV in Seattle did an investigative news segment on the building of my house and is currently being provided with all documentation for an update. While Perry Zender denied responsibility during the arbitration, he had already filed lawsuits against six of his sub-contractors in Whatcom County Superior Court the month before arbitration began. Ironically, some of those sub-contractors have contacted me to help deal with the lawsuits filed against them by Perry Zender.
