Huh?


And I should pay about eight grand for this?


??




All that disclaimer means is that the contractor isn't making any claims
above and beyond those of the manufacturer nor are they providing any
warranty beyond that of the manufacturer.


But that isn't what that section of the contract actually
says. If that is what they meant, then they should have
said there are no warranties beyond that provided by
manufacturer. I'd cross them off my list immediately,
as they are obviously too stupid to write a contract.
Plus it;s not unreasonable to expect some warranty
on their work too.


They did day that. Besides, they did not write it, some lawyer did.
Certainly not a deal breaker for me if everything else is in line.

If there is a warranty on their work, it is written in the contract.
That differs from express or implied warranties.
