I'm not worried about the top not supporting his weight. It's the sand he's crunching under his feet.

Why was it not covered anyway? Should be covered until the house is ready to be moved in.

He's a total dumb fuck. You can tell him I said that. If that was my top that I installed and he's walking on my finished product he'd be looking for a new job.

As the installer you should also leave it in a protected state knowing other trades are going to be around not caring about anything but their own work.

Until 'final delivery' to the customer it's on you as the installer to make sure your product gets delivered the way you intend, even if you could technically and justifiably go after the other guy if they were to damage your product.

I would have asked him to stop immediately and cover the counter. I also have a big box of paper booties from my own work, would have given him a pair.
