We supplied the light fixtures for a project. The fixtures were specified by the architect. Two fixtures were installed and quickly died so we ordered replacements.
We returned to the job Tuesday to install the fixtures and finish a few punch list items. One of the fixtures was damaged in shipment thus necesitating a return visit by us to install. I called my supply house and they want me to file a claim with the shipper. I explained that I will be charging for 3 hours of time for our return visit. The job is 1.5 hours from the shop.
I don't think I should be filing for a claim. My position is the supply house should be handling this. My supply house emailed a claim form to the office.
Opinions ?
