Owners of Coquitlam condo tower file lawsuit alleging defects, mould five years after completion
Vancouver Sun
Condo owners in Coquitlam have sued developers and contractors over alleged construction defects and mould five years after the tower's completion.Summary
Residents of Coquitlam’s tallest condo tower, Clarke+Como, filed a lawsuit in B.C. Supreme Court against more than two dozen defendants, including developer Marcon Clarke, architects, engineering firms, and contractors, alleging construction defects such as misaligned windows and doors, missing sealant, cracked concrete, improper HVAC, and elevators that rattle, shake and free‑fall, which they claim have caused mould risk and interior damage. The suit says the building’s 2‑5‑10 warranty provider failed to repair reported defects, and owners seek damages for increased maintenance costs, loss of use, and diminished market value; none of the allegations have been proven in court.
