Climbing Silver LLC has taken legal action against a construction company, accusing it of negligence that led to significant property damage. The complaint was filed by Climbing Silver LLC in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, on an unspecified date, targeting AA Soto Construction LLC as the defendant.
The lawsuit stems from a contract entered into on March 14, 2023, between Climbing Silver LLC and AA Soto Construction LLC for painting services on a property located at 857 Peralta St., Pittsburgh. According to the plaintiff, the work was completed negligently by AA Soto Construction LLC and its agents. The plaintiff claims that improper surface preparation and the use of unsuitable materials led to severe issues with the property's vinyl siding. Specifically, they allege that the defendant failed to advise them about the potential consequences of using a dark paint color on vinyl siding, which can absorb heat and cause warping. Despite being notified about these issues in June 2024, AA Soto Construction allegedly denied any fault related to their work.
The complaint outlines how the siding continued to deteriorate over time due to what Climbing Silver describes as negligent practices by AA Soto Construction. This included inadequate priming and preparation of surfaces before painting. By August 2024, Climbing Silver discovered that these issues were directly linked to the improper methods employed by AA Soto Construction during their contracted work.
Climbing Silver is seeking damages not exceeding $50,000 for repairs or replacement of the damaged vinyl siding. They argue that AA Soto Construction breached its duty of care by failing to perform its obligations under the contract in a competent manner. The lawsuit accuses AA Soto Construction of negligence for not taking reasonable measures to ensure proper compatibility and expansion properties when applying paint and additives.
