to my mailbox for 238 Southern Belle Drive, Coppell, Texas, I called and
spoke to you on 10/08/2013 at 6:42 p.m. During that call we agreed that
I would be present at my house on 10/09/2013 no later than 6:30 p.m. to
show you the irrigation system, as requested in the letter. On
10/09/2013, at 6:20 p.m. I arrived to my residence at 238 Southern Belle
Drive, Coppell, Texas. I then sat in my front yard on the swing until
6:50 waiting and then went inside my house to wait. You and and a group
of men knocked multiple times on the door to house across the street,
but did not come to my house to speak with me. At 7:11 p.m. I called and
spoke to you questioning why nobody came to my house, at which time you
advised that you did not see me in my front yard waiting and that you
would catch up with me in two months when you were working on my side of
the street. An agreement that seemed reasonable to me. Regardless, I
marked the six functioning sprinkler heads after turning them on and
confirming their proper functioning on the evening of 10/10/2013, after
seeing cuts in the drive way and tire marks in the lawn closest to
southern belle drive (referred to as "the tree lawn" hereafter because I
do not know the official term) with small stakes of wood, in case you
needed them identified. Today, 10/11/2013, three of those six wooden
stakes are missing -- probably because of the machinery that drove over
the tree lawn and buried them. Because of the severity of the damage to
the tree lawn, I would believe that the sprinkler heads it this area are
most likely now broken and not functioning. I recognize that with
construction comes damaged property, both of which do not bother me.
However, your letter states, "We will replace your system just as we
find it on 10/9/13, nothing more but nothing less." Considering Pavecon
representatives did not do a walk through with me on the original agreed
upon date, could you or someone please confirm that I will not have any
issues with the replacement and required repares to the property upon
completion of the construction? Meaning, Pavecon will replace the
irrigation system and repair the tree lawn.
