I assume you have some sort of contract? Your recourse would be outlined there. I'd be very surprised if it was longer than 6 months to a year, and decks might be excluded.

When I did property management in the YC my boss refused to take any clients with flat roofs. So stupid unless you are in AZ or something.

At this point I'm torn between wondering what Fred saw and thinking it's better if I never know.

A while. Regardless of what the contract says, you may have recourse. I’m no attorney. #thanksregulation

Depends on the state and most contracts you should sign say "as allowable by jurisdiction of the project". Your neighbor to the west allows six years. Not sure for WY. And a lot of times the contracts favors the prime so it may depend on what you signed unless you have a high dollar attorney. If it's leaking, I'd try to find damage from leakage outside the contractors work and file an insurance claim. The adjusters will assign fault which sets precedence for faulty work. That is if your contractor carried appropriate insurance. The claim will most likely have a "your work" exclusion so it won't pay for the deck but at least if you sue, you'll have expert witnesses pointing a finger and you didn't have to pay for them.

Sounds like we don’t have any recourse with the ‘contractor’, as we fired him when it was clear he was incompetent. We hired someone else to finish up some aspects, (and withheld that amount from the original ‘contractor’) but we didn’t know about the leaking until much later.

Vibes. Sorta sounds like a "how to to hire a contractor". These "deck over live space" projects are very popular. I'd say the are the most frequently fucked up assembly, even more that shower pans.
What was the scope of work? Was is engineered or design/build? There are lots of flat roof designs that work but they are not cheap or easy. Its amazing how many property owners want to half ass things. You start writing, "homeowner designed non-engineered repair" and "no warranty of suitability" into the contract and people start back stepping.

Yup, the flat roofs on Adobe style homes is the only time, imo, a flat roof should be used. It's the architecture of those homes. We put a small flat side roof on a house in TSV that was not an Adobe style and I was just shaking my head the whole time. It's so normal in NM nobody thinks to do otherwise in certain instances. Good grief
