This situation is considered civil because it involves a dispute between two private parties—the homeowner and the builder—regarding a contractual obligation. The homeowner is seeking compensation for damages resulting from the builder's failure to perform the work to the agreed-upon standards. Civil law addresses conflicts like this, where one party claims that another has not fulfilled their responsibilities, typically resolved through monetary compensation or order to fulfill the contract.
