Liability after damage to your floor

Questioner

Good afternoon, our new kitchen was installed last week. The kitchen looks good and has been neatly installed. Now it turns out that when we removed the carpet (which we had put down on the floor for protection) there was a large stain in our wooden floor. How can I hold a company liable for the damage? Thank you in advance.

Lawyer

Good afternoon, if it has been established that the damage to your wooden floor was caused by the installation of the kitchen, you can hold the company liable by registered letter. If liability is acknowledged, your legal costs will often be reimbursed by the other party or their insurer. So you do not have to pay any costs. If you wish, I can help you with this by contacting me directly.
