Re 17 Beacon Street
Dear Ms. Ross,
Per my inspection of Friday August 12,2011, I would like to counter some of the items
identified by Cartus Relocation.
41 Concrete pad at Front Stairs --- I agree the pad should be repaired and or replaced
#2 Missing window wells. ---The cellar windows are 18 to 24 inches above grade. There is no
need for window wells.
#3 Chimney problems---I agree the chimney needs to be repaired.
#4 Downspouts missing--- I agree ,downspouts need to be replaced
45Exterior windows–basement level . Two windows have been replaced with plywood inserts to
allow ducts and hoses to pass through. The cellar has other operable windows and is not a
conditioned space.The windows do not need to be present.
#6Structural slab--- The cellar floor is a non structural slab. It is typical for a home of this age to
have a fairly crude slab. The floor does not impact the structure of the house.
47 Hand rails--- I agree Rails need to added
#8 Water penetration --The source of the water appears to be Hydrostatic pressure due to the
fairly high water table and proximity to Collins cove. Proper sump pumps need to be maintained
#9 Electrical Panel double lugged—I agree a qualified Electrician needs to address
910 Smoke detector--- I agree ,hardwired smoke needs to installed.
411 Heating System—I disagree , the boiler has rust along the outer edge of the steel jacket. This
is common due to the proximity of the steel to the concrete but has no impact on the operation of
the boiler itself
#12 Pressure Relief Valve—Repair had already been completed at the time of my inspection
#13 Drain Pipes-- Unless the walls were opened up during a renovation, no upgrades would be
required for venting
#14 Possible Abestos—Agreed

#15Composition Board siding—The home has vinyl siding on it.
#16 Heating system Heat exchanger---I disagree. The home has a steam boiler and therefore no
heat exchanger
