3/16/21: There is a hairline crack in the stucco beneath the outside light near the floor on the screened in porch & across the bottom of the front of the house see photos below. Turned all water on first, let it run during the entire service call & flushed the toilet several times per client. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. Visual check of the dock & boat ramp photos below. Duck droppings are on the dock.3/16/21: Brought in a package of iron out tablets for the bathrooms and placed a tablet into each toilet tank for iron build up prevention see photo below. All of the water supply valves inside the residence have excessive corrosion on them. There are hairline cracks in the dining room ceiling above the table, the master bedroom ceiling that runs the entire length of the bedroom in front of the closet doors & the front guest bedroom in front of the closet doors. There are no water stains & do not feel wet. The top screen is torn on the right side lanai screen door. The half bathroom ceiling has a hairline crack several feet long. Both bathroom faucets leak from the traps when water is running, I have tagged them as such. The bathroom bathtub faucet handles drip when water is running, I have tagged them as such.
3/15/21: Removed the old refrigerator from the garage, taped the doors closed with gorilla tape & put it down at the curb for collection see photo below. The new refrigerator has been delivered & installed in the kitchen see photo below. I turned the breaker on to make sure the new refrigerator was working then turned it back off & left the doors open before leaving.
3/15/21: Watered 3 interior plants. Kept thermostat at 74 based on current humidity level inside your home.
3/15/21: Went back to the residence to check on the cleaning status. The residence smells like it has been ionized but it still clearly has not been cleaned see photo of hair that was next to the same toilet from before below. The entire residence is still dirty & now with even more shoe prints on the tile floors from whoever came here last. The carpets still have not even been vacuumed? My concern for the client is that for $900 the residence should have been cleaned throughly. The old refrigerator is also still in the garage causing the garage to smell rancid. If the old refrigerator is not removed from the garage soon it may cause the inside of the residence to start to smell bad again.
3/15/21: Toilets are off at valves as previously reported. Guest bath tub fixture valve is leaking, previously reported. Watered 0 plants on the lanai. Removed pest control sign from front yard. Raised shutter up then down. The neighbors said they purchased a new hose for the pool area.

Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. Weeds are growing in the front landscape bed.
3/15/21: There are now 3 large ant hills on the property as well as several smaller hills out in the yard. One I reported a month ago with a photo and two new hills, photos below. It has been my experience that left unresolved it is only a matter of time before they find there way inside. The freezer still has the primary shelf thick in ice but no new ice has formed. Moved thermostat back up to 78 based on humidity level today.
3/15/21: The boat motor appears to have been leaking something see photos below. Brought in a package of iron out tablets for the toilets and placed a tablet in the guest bathroom toilet see photo below. The humidity level was back under 60% inside the residence after making the last adjustments. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Rabbits have been digging holes in the yard.

Brought in one new 18x30x1 pleated air filter, a three pack of 14x14x1, a three pack of 12x12x1 for the ac and replaced all four dirty filters throughout the residence see photos below. I wrote the date of installation on on all the new air filters. The water level was low in the spa again almost below the jets. I ran water into the spa during the entire service call again to help keep the water level up photo below. Weeds are growing in the lanai pavers. There are cracks in the stucco on both sides of the house. The stain on the master bathroom ceiling has not changed in appearance. The guest bathroom shower has grout coming out in the corners.

3/12/21: The residence does not appear to have been cleaned at all. Nothing has even been moved or any of my closet doors or same cabinets have been closed? It does not smell clean & there is still a foul odor throughout the residence. The carpets are still dirty & do not even have vacuum marks on them? The tile floors still appear to have a film on them? Dirt is still in some of the corners etc? The microwave & range are still dirty? The sinks, toilets & showers are still dirty as well? The same dog hair that was on the upstairs guest bathroom floor is still there? See photos below. It is my professional opinion that the residence did not get cleaned whatsoever. The old refrigerator has been removed from the kitchen & placed in the garage which is still emitting a foul odor. The front door frame & threshold were damaged when they moved the refrigerator out see photos of the damaged door frame, threshold & the side of the refrigerator where they hit the door frame below. I left the lockbox on the door when leaving in case Servpro needs to come back & actually clean the residence. I also left the water main on & turned the water heater on so they have hot water to clean with no excuses! The gold Toyota sedan was also blocking the driveway when I arrived again.
