The story behind the dispute is the kind that tends to land on a contractor’s CGL desk. According to the filing, the Association alleges Jack’s Tile was hired in November 2018 under what it describes as a design-build contract totaling $422,100 to tear out the old tiling on the property’s “Plaza Deck,” replace the underlayment, and install fresh waterproofing, tiling, and resurfacing. Sometime after the work wrapped up, the Association alleges, water began showing up where it should not have been – leaking into retail spaces on the deck and into tenant-occupied areas below.
