Homeowners Michael and Joyce Halloran of Ellington discovered cracks in their basement walls last September. They then learned the walls are collapsing and fixing them will cost over $150,000. They claim the problem is due to faulty concrete. They aren’t alone. The problem is affecting hundreds of Connecticut homeowners, mostly in the northeastern section of the state.
The problem is already the subject of an investigation by the state Office of the Attorney General. Now the situation has led to a class action filed on behalf of homeowners against their insurance companies, which have reportedly refused to pay to fix the problems.
