enough bashing

The installer had no way to know that he would start a fire. It probably had nothing to do with being careless. tell me how you would know that you created a spark large enough to start a fire inside a wall. Walls are full of nails steel strips and other assorted materials that could cause a spark. yes this is unfortunate but realisticly this could happen to any installer in any house. this just happened to be his unlucky day

I don't think it is bashing to point out bad process. And if this installer rolled up with the biggest drill they could find and a 1" masonry bit and just started chugging away then he is a threat to society. That might work fine 90% of the time via dumb luck, but it is asking for trouble.

There is always two ways to do any job, the right way and the easy way. At a minimum the guy needed to try to locate the studs and stay away from them to minimize the chance of hitting something. Now the homeowner should've vetted this process as well, but I don't know exactly what happened.
