The better question would be whether you're likely to win, as it is simple to sue for most things.
Not knowing any details, this could be a reasonably strong case. Some things to consider would be:
1. Did the contract stipulate any particular type of materials?
2. If not, did the contract stipulate any particular quality of materials?
3. How defective are these materials? Would reasonable neutral parties agree they're defective? Do the defects make what is being built dangerous? Less attractive? Less desirable to you on a personal level?
These are only some of the things that should be considered. If this is more than a hypothetical question, I would recommend talking to an attorney.
Yes, you can sue a contractor for using defective materials if it can be proven that they knowingly used substandard materials or breached their contract by not providing materials of agreed-upon quality. Legal action can be taken to seek compensation for any financial losses or damages incurred as a result of the defective materials. It's important to gather evidence and consult with a legal professional to assess the strength of your case.
It depends on the specific details of the situation and the contract terms between the business, owner, and contractor. The business could potentially sue the owner for non-payment depending on the legal agreements in place, but it would be advisable to consult with a legal professional for guidance on the best course of action.
Yes, if a contractor intentionally fails to provide services agreed upon with the client and accepts payment for those services, they can be charged with theft of service. This may involve situations where the contractor does not complete the work, performs substandard work, or engages in fraudulent practices.
It depends on the specific circumstances and the laws in your jurisdiction. If there was no signed contract and you didn't agree to hire the contractor, it may be difficult for the contractor to successfully sue you. However, it's always best to seek legal advice to fully understand your rights and obligations in this situation.
Under the principle of strict liability, anyone involved in the chain of distribution of a defective product can be sued, including manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. These parties can also sue each other for indemnification or contribution if one is found liable for damages caused by a defective product.

Did you pay the contractor? If not, he had the right to lien your property. If you want to sue the contractor, you need to be able to prove that he did not finish the job. For example, if he put an addition on your house and did not roof it, you need to show in the contract where it states the work included roofing the addition.
