The court found that the defendant had assumed responsibility for site security and insured the risk, agreed with the plaintiff to pay for replacement and reinstallation work and paid HK$250,000 as an advance for those loss claims; therefore the plaintiff provided valid consideration in agreeing to redo the works under the defendant's schedule and is entitled to judgment for HK$444,320 and HK$171,859.30; the defendant's counterclaim for overpayment is dismissed.
