My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: Massachusetts. We won a $25,000 prize to have our basement remodeled but because our basement's ceiling height doesn't meet building codes they will not be able able to get a permit to do the remodel. There is an alternative cash prize of $10,000 that we are trying to figure out if we qualify for.
In the rules for the prize it states:
The Prize (the finished basement) does not include, without limitation, labor and materials related to painting, staining, flooring, egress code-related issues, or HVAC systems. Finished basement installation subject to any applicable local building codes and regulations,including, without limitation, if applicable, the issuance of valid building permit(s).
Upon installation of the finished basement, Owens Corning will be deemed to have awarded the Prize to the winner with the winner assuming full ownership and responsibility for the Prize. If winner’s residence does not have a basement, or the
winner’s basement is not in a suitable condition (e.g., without limitation, no water, mold, or structural damage and in compliance with local building codes and regulations) for the Prize (the finished basement) as determined in the sole discretion of Owens Corning, or winner resides in a geographic area in which Owens Corning does not have a participating franchise in good standing that is authorized to install the finished basement at the time of Prize award, Owens Corning will consider the Prize (the finished basement) to be unavailable. ]If Prize is unavailable for the above or any other reasons, Owens Corning, will instead award winner an alternate cash prize of $10,000 (USD). The final determination as to which prize is awarded will be at the sole discretion of Owens Corning.
