Q: I installed doors in a residential property and have been facing ongoing problems with the customer regarding water leaks. I install automatic doors for commercial use but the customer requested that it be installed in their home. The customer did not erect a canopy which I believed would provide protection as to the elements but now wants the door removed at my expense. I would like advice on my legal position here.
