Re: Formal Complaint: D'Amato Brothers/Watch Hill Builders and Montville Building
Department
In response to your recent complaint I met with you today at the above referenced address to
inspect the issues you referred to as Building Code Violations. As a result of my inspection, I
have contacted your builder (John D'Amato) and he has agreed to make the following
corrections:
1) Rear Deck
A) Anchor deck posts to concrete piers
B) Add nails to joist hangers
C) Double 2x8 end joists to cover exposed nails and stiffen deck railing
2) Caulk around Bilco basement door
3) Add GFI protection to furnace service outlet
4) Add collar ties in attic space of house
5) Relocate dryer vent discharge
When you have removed stored items from garage Mr. D'Amato will meet with me to inspect
the floor in order to try to determine the cause for the cracks and apparent settling that has
occurred. At that time, he will schedule repairs listed above.
In addition to the issues addressed in your letter, my inspection revealed that your gas installer
had connected your appliances without calling for the required pressure test inspection. He
contacted the office this afternoon and the inspection is scheduled for Oct. 18, 2000.
If you have any questions or if I can be of further assistance, please call me at the Building
