Curious from the plumbers opinion.....if a carpenter hits a pipe nailed into a stud where there no plate on the stud......who is responsiable ? I know $h1t happens in the field.....just curious what your take is on this.

I'm hijacking my own thread but Me TOO....I always use AC/MC cable for electrical runs. ROMEX® became legal out here in NYC just recently....but the only time I use ROMEX® is for LV short runs like undercabinet lights.
mn_nobody said:in my experience, the plumber is the one that needs to fix a sheetrock screw or nail accident, so ultimately he is responsible. the gc usually has to eat the extra time/material. always always always use nailplates. if your a 'rocker, and you hit a pipe, just save the plumber the trouble of having a slow leak in his final manometer test and TELL HIM! he might call you some names but he should be thankful
This is awkward, but...
