I agree Will, and that is the way it is in the Residential Market.
Unlike the Commercial Market here, we are liable for everything that goes wrong, and seen where we are liable for Architects mistakes too!
They come back and say, well you as the Contractor are the professionals and that is why you got the job, you should have been aware the Architect made a mistake.
How do you like that one?
Code Enforcement, my job two years ago, Certificate of occupancy, walk-thru, Took all of five minutes.
Invited him in one time to show him the design drawings were wrong and not per the NEC, asked for a letter of his aggreement, no way hose’.
Dosen’t really matter where you go, I have never seen a Code Enforcement that knows what he is looking at. At least in the same perspective as me.
That is the way it is, now page two. ha. ha.
