Dealer poured foundation in the wrong spot what to do???

Post by Dave C. » Fri Apr 22, 2005 7:26 pm

We are buying a home from Merit and they have poured footers/foundation today on our acre with the j-hook anchors imbedded into the concrete. The problem is we wanted and had on the plans that the home would sit 25 ft off the side property line. So today they poured the concrete and it is now 25 ft in the front of the house (perfect) and 31 ft at the rear to the property line (not acceptable). It is now sitting sideways on the acre. I even asked when they were out to dig the footers... why does it look crooked ...is that an optical illusion? I was told it was fine it was squared off and just fine, so I figured they know their job and it was ok. They poured 3 and a half truck loads of concrete (aprox. 30 yards) in the wrong location. What should I do....make them take it all out? Im am so upset that nobody caught this. I am waiting to hear back from the dealer and best of all....our home will be here on Mon.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

The footing contractor should have listened....Call the dealer and have him make it right....
