Ran into a funny situation and curious about everyone’s opinion. This is more of a general contractor question rather than Carpentry, but most of us work for GC’s and have been in positions like this, so let’s have at it. I’ll remove the thread if this isn’t a good place for it.

Entire house is skim coated. Whose job is it to clean the (massive amount of) remaining dust off the walls & ceiling?

• the tapers? They created it.
• the painters? They’re the ones who need it gone.
• the carpenters? Since the GC likes to treat us like their bitch anyway.

I know who will be cleaning the walls (me, carpenter). But philosophically, whose job is it?

Have some fun with it, who else has situations like this they run into all the time?
