Flip RIGHT or kindly Quit!

I am a real estate agent, daughter of an well known architect. We have been building houses for over 40 years. I took to real estate because I just love houses and the job site,  I love everything about real estate... but.. can I just ask why don't flips start with the roof, or offer a roof cert? COE last week, rain this week, new flip is flooding, the ceilings are urinating all over the "plush carpet", the textured walls are now 99% wet, and I have a crying new millennial buyer soaking tears in IPA's by the growler full! - where is my flipper--- uhhhh yes he would be skiing! Home warranty won't cover secondary damage,  my RR form saying that the flipper/owner is committed to his contractual obligation to make any necessary repairs to any roof damage that should come- well he must have known it was coming and he  was hoping we would run it all through insurance, so he wouldn't have to pay for a new roof... not likely here!!! Good greif!  I would love to sell flips but haven't found one I can actually be proud of!.. Attorney anyone?   

Signed, 

Frusterated agent...

Please advise.
