We bought a CYV in Duval in 2007 and have had a lot of problem with water leaks around the windows. The home is block and stucco. Home warranty kept telling us that ANY cracks in the stucco will cause water to leak in. Our carpet was soaked after TS Fay and after numerous other sever storms. After having the builder come out and tell us the same thing numerous times and having all the cracks filled in and still having the carpets wet, they finally sent the window company out. Now this took two years to get to this point. After the guy from the window company resealed all the joints in the window frames I think it is finally corrected. But they would not listen to us. We have a stucco home in AZ and have never had water leaks onto our carpet there and some of the cracks in our stucco here is at least a dime wide.
