Apparently EQC is now trying to avoid meeting its liabilities for earthquake damage by trying to identify damage to houses that allegedly arose from weathertight issues. Homeowners ought not accept EQC’s version of events and ought to engage a building surveyor to investigate the causes of damage. If damage is caused by earthquake, EQC is liable.
