Question juridique clé
Whether the contractor's claim for electrical installation work is subject to the five-year limitation period for artisans' work under Art. 128 ch. 3 CO.
Solution extraite
Yes. Complete electrical installation of a villa, even with some coordination and correction of prior defective work, remained artisan work under the statute.
Motifs extraits
Artisan work is manual, traditional, and of limited scope; electrical installation falls within that category. The need to inspect and redo earlier work reinforced the manual and individual skill component. The recourse challenge to the factual findings was insufficiently reasoned.
