Dryer Vent

[Wen...@aol.com]

Dear Abhijit, Clair and all Resident at Hartland Square

 

Earlier this month I notice water dripping from the ceiling onto the stairway railing in my unit. I reported  it to Clair and she dispatch a contractor to inspect and determine the cause. The contractor determined there is a leak in the roof and we are in the process of resolving this. But what is very alarming is that the contractor observed and reported that the DRYER VENT was DISCONNECTED and lint was being deposited in the attic insulation.

 

We have used the same contractor, CLEAR TUBES  MR HARRISON, to clean and certify the dryer vent every year since the BOARD have negotiate a discounted rate and have vouch his credentials. The last time he did our dryer vent was October last year. I find it extremely difficult to understand how the vent could become disconnected between then and now. Especially as no one else have had access to our attic.   

 

A high level of trust and professionalism is required in situation like this. The contractor is expected to clean and verify the safety of the vent and we on the hand trust him with our safety. Have anyone ever back check his work. The big question is this an unfortunate accident or is it a reflection of the quality of his work?  I would like to get some feed back from other community members regarding their experience with this contractor.

Dear Caleb

I have been using the same contractor and had no issues till date. While the Board has negotiated the prices with the contractor, there is no pressure on the residents to use the same contractor and that was made clear to every one.

"All home owners are free to utilize any vent cleaning service of their choice as long as the contractor performing the work is insured. The board, as previously communicated has negotiated a discounted fee of $45 for this service through Harrison Tube Cleaning, residents are however in no way obligated to use this company."

Regards

Sashi

Hi,

I actually pay extra for the contractor to get up the attic and clean it from there. Last year, the contractor agreed that it needed to be cleaned from the attic. I use ProClean cleaning services and pay them $75 to do that.

Hi 

        Did anyone received the package by mistake intended for Sumeet Khurana, 2353 berkshire lane, North Brunswick. It was delivered on 16th Jul (Sunday).  It has a knee cap and onion cutter in that.

Appreciate the response.

Thanks

Sumeet Khurana
