    I was told that if the EC uses tradespeople provided by the SM then it is the SM’s responsibility to ensure they are licensed, insured, qualifiied etc.  If the EC chooses their own tradespeople, the onus is on them to ensure that all is above board.  If not and something happens, then it falls back on the EC.

    Your EC seems to be suffering from the same condition as mine.  The “it’s all OK, we have insurance” syndrome.  But as Jimmy just said and has pointed out previously, they are not covered for absolutely everything, and probably not for making a bad or uninformed decision.  It is easy to get information in this day of the internet so for me there is no excuse.
