Certainly, you will not be alone. The overall quality of construction in Spain has been erratic and has encompassed excellent building on the one hand and some very poor construction on the other. This is particularly true of properties built during the boom years when some constructors lacked skilled workers or the proper supervision their projects deserved.
However – there are normally recourses available to you to recover from construction problems in Spain (even if your builder has disappeared!). That said, as always, you should act as soon as you notice a potential problem both for safety reasons and because the sooner you act the sooner that remedial action can be undertaken. Equally, there is always the possibility that your Decenal (Spanish 10 year building guarantee) may be on the point of expiring…
