Contractor denies blame for Carifesta Ave defects

Contractor H Nauth and Sons, which worked on upgrading Carifesta Avenue, is not accepting blame for the current defects that have been appearing along the road.

Speaking to Stabroek News yesterday, a spokesperson from the company, who did not want to be named, explained that its contract only covered overlaying the road that was already there, while the median and installation of the lights would have been done by Dynamic Engineering.

“We weren’t required to do the groundwork. It wasn’t our construction responsibility, since we were only responsible for overlaying… What happens under the surface is not our problem,” the source said.
