SBRC goes on to argue that the trial court was more concerned with quality standards than with function, and it contends in its brief that “Meadowbrook owners who wished to be assured that the construction of paved areas and carports would be in accordance with ‘sound’ engineering and construction standards were obligated to negotiate an express warranty to that effect in their deeds or by separate, surviving agreements.” While we agree with defendant that Rothberg requires neither perfection nor buyer satisfaction, we observe that the quoted proposition is antithetical to Rothberg’s adoption of an implied warranty of “good and workmanlike” building techniques. Here, the trial court’s findings respecting the condition of the roads and carports provided adequate *21support for its conclusion that the implied warranty of good workmanship had been breached.
