8/3/23: New roof construction progress photos below. Did not see any water intrusions inside the residence at this time. The sidewalk leading up to the entrance of the building is currently damaged & taped off. Left the alarm system deactivated when leaving.

8/3/23: Additional service call photos.
8/3/23: Renovation progress photos below. Made sure the water heater, range & ice maker were off. The downstairs ac air filter is extremely dirty & not the correct size see photo below. A new air filter of the correct size is needed. The downstairs ac thermostat had a low battery warning on the display. I replaced the batteries with two new AA batteries provided in the hallway closet removing the low battery warning. The upstairs custom washable ac air filter is also dirty & needs to be washed/replaced. Unable to run water in the upstairs sink or flush the toilet as they both have been temporarily disconnected for renovation. All storm shutters are closed.
8/3/23: The water main valve to the home does not have a handle so there’s no way to turn the water off. I walked the house twice to insure that no water was running in sinks, showers, tubs and toilets.
8/3/23: New roof construction progress photos below. Checked damp rid bucket in master bedroom closet. Storm shutters on lanai are closed.
8/3/23: All large damp rid buckets throughout the residence are full. Watered the plant on the lanai using the teapot. All storm shutters are closed.

8/3/23: The inside of the residence does not appear to have changed in appearance since the last service call. The fallen section of insulation foam board in the attic has been repaired since the last service call see photo below. There is corrosion on one of the pipes above the water heater. It can wait until the client returns to repair. The breaker panel is old & needs to be replaced. Client will address when they return. Front porch screens are damaged & waiting to be replaced.
8/3/23: Damaged window screens have not been replaced yet. The garage overhead door needs new weather stripping on the bottom as light is starting to shine through allowing leaves etc to pass underneath the door. Checked all damp rid buckets. Large damp rid buckets will need to be replaced soon. Water was off in #603.
8/3/23: Mini fridge in kitchen is off & door open.
8/3/23: Made sure the water heater, range & ice maker were off. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence on both floors when i arrived. I lowered the humidistat to 55% for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Upstairs bedroom is currently under renovation. Was unable to run water in the upstairs bathroom as it is packed full with furniture. Storm shutters on lanai are closed. One of the storm shutters is broken & partially open.

8/2/23: I started the car and it idled during the service call.
8/2/23: Both chargers for vehicles in the garage had power and lights. The smoke detector in the hall leading to the guest bedrooms is chirping. It needs the battery replaced. The AC system is running and it is cooling. I did check the vent air temperature but it appears it’s just not keeping up with the very hot temperatures we’ve had today. At one point it was over 95°. It has cooled down here a little bit because we’ve got rain coming, so I’m not concerned about the readings on the thermostat for your air conditioner.
8/2/23: I walked the house twice at the end to be sure all valves and showers were off. I also made sure the toilets were not running either. I do this because the water main is to remain on. The lawn is browning a bit, as previously reported.
8/2/23: The pool cage is gone as you know. The browning in the yard persists. When I first walked in to your home, your conditioner was not running, and there was no reading on the thermostat itself. I went to the circuit breaker box to see if we had any tripped major breakers that were not, and I went to the HVAC air handler closet to find that the two breakers on the front of that unit had tripped. I reset them in the system began to run and cool. The smoke detector in the hall leading to the guest bedrooms is chirping, indicating a low battery.
8/2/23: Some browning of the yard reported previously. Photo of the lake below.
8/2/23: I didn’t run the master bathroom tub as it appeared it may still be getting installed. The pool is at least an inch below the skimmer port, pump is off.
8/2/23: Drive by. Unlocked the pool bathroom door. Roofers were present working on the roof when I arrived.
8/2/23: Water heater fitting damp and corroded at threads as reported previously. Gopher tortoise hole under the one corner of the pool cage is inactive. The front armadillo hole behind the front window appears inactive. The side armadillo hole appears to be inactive. The right kitchen sink trap is leaking at the metal sink nut, previously reported. Visual check of the car, 3 tires appear a bit low the back passenger tire is flat. The pool cage still has better than 60% of the screening missing up top. Bushes around the pool need some trimming, photos below. The water main was on upon arrival and off upon departure. Some of the popcorn ceiling next to the vent by the refrigerator in the kitchen has come loose and fallen down on the floor. I don’t think it’s a roof leak as much as it might be just condensation from the vent that is loose in the popcorn ceiling just to the side of it.
8/2/23: Some browning in the yard, reported previously. There is a water spot in the master bath shower, reported previously. The water main was on upon arrival and off upon departure. There is one small piece of facia that has slipped on the lanai, but other than that I couldn’t see any damage around the house inside or out from the roofers.
