HomeMy WebLinkAbout7 & 9 Connemara Way Inspection reports and rental certificates.Good Afternoon Richard,
I am writing to provide you with an overview of findings following the recent inspection of #7 and #9 Connemara Way done by Assistant Director of the Yarmouth Health Department, Barry
Lewis. Overall, the property is in satisfactory condition, but there are a few notable issues that require your attention.
1. Smoke Detector Issue (#9):
* The smoke detector was tested and is working but is currently on the wall and needs to be relocated to the ceiling.
2. Toilet Leak (#7):
* The toilet is leaking which is impacting the bathroom below. Probable Cause: A likely easy wax gasket fix is needed.
3. Mildew in Bathroom (#7):
* Small amounts of mildew next to the vent on the ceiling were observed. The tenant mentioned having painted over other mildew, so that was not evident at time of the inspection.
4. Attic Insulation and Draftiness (#7):
* The tenant reported inadequate attic insulation, resulting in draftiness. Note: Recognizing the distinctive needs of the tenant’s children, we stress the urgency of addressing this
matter promptly to prioritize their comfort and safety.
The rental certificates will be issued; however, we require your follow-up on these issues within 30 days. Please provide photo evidence of repairs, or if you prefer, we can arrange
an in-person follow-up inspection. Timely addressing of maintenance concerns is crucial for tenant health and safety, as well as for safeguarding the long-term condition of your property.
If you have any questions or require further details, please feel free to contact Assistant Director of Health, Barry Lewis at blewis@yamouth.ma.us
Thank you for your continued commitment to maintaining the quality of your property.
Thank you and Kind Regards,
Debra Bruinooge
