re: If contractor digs and breaks work another contractor has done, who is responsible?

Years ago when I was working for a commercial GC I had a little concrete company my boss loved. The guy did shoddy work on anything aside from sidewalks. Had him pour a 6’ elevated handicapped ramp. His forms gave out on the vertical wall and the top was about 3’ wider than the bottom. Looked like shite. Had to tear it all out and redo it.

So you and your boss didn’t look at what was formed up before he placed the concrete?

He may be responsible but that’s idiotic that no one from your GC firm checked prior-especially if you knew he did “shoddy” work.
