OPINION
SPURLOCK, Justice.
This is a construction contract case. A contractor sued for the cost of certain “extras” in addition to the contract price for the construction and purchase of a triplex. The purchasers counterclaimed seeking damages for defects in workmanship and deviations from the plans and specifications of the contract. The main question presented for review is whether the remedial cost is a proper measure of damages in view of the fact that the purchasers sold the triplex to a third party before the trial of this case without remedying the defects.
We reverse and remand.
