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.

What do you need to sue a contractor that put a lien on my home without finishing the job in illinois?
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.
