Dear Mr. Wallace:
Following up my letter to the Maurers on November tenth, I want
to let you know that we finished all the work you requested of
me.
It took a little longer than five days because Mr. Maurer did
not telephone me, and I had to telephone each time for an appoint-
ment to. work.
I hope that this completes our work and that you can close this
case':

Dear Mr. Maurer:
yesterday I received your letter in regard to water entering your
house.
As you know, I went to your house and water -proofed under the
front door threshold. We did caulking at the southwest corner
of the house which :should stop any seepage in that area.
I had a roofer inspect your house for your satisfaction. He
said that the roof is all in good condition with no chance of
leaking.
I also had other people look, as I did myself, very carefully
all around your house especially the cast wall near the furnace
room. That area looks perfect, and I don't see how a house
could get water in that area. Please move your trash barrels
away from the outside furnace vents. Water coming off the roof..
could hit the closed tops of the barrels and be splashing through
the vents to the furnace area.
You told me that the house did not get any water in it during the
last rain. I suggest that we wait and see when it rains again.
I sincerely hope that no water will get in your home. however,
If it should, please call me immediately for me to see.
Copies to:
State Contractors' Board,
Mr. Stanley Wallace.
City of Costa Mesa,
Mr. Richard Hanhart.
Very truly yours,
Michael D. Kay

Attention: Mr. Arthur R. McKenzie
Regarding: Residence, Construction Problems.
Gentlemen:
The residence, located at the above address, was sold as a complete
dwelling. However, it has been in various stages of construction
since occupancy, which began in September 1968, and is still unfinished.
The attached list of construction problems is a compilation of lists,
that have been submitted to the contractor, Michael D. Kay, to date.
Many of the items are in violation of the Uniform Building Code and the
State Housing laws. Since it is my understanding that the city is the
enforcement agency for these laws, I am submitting the list and
requesting your help in obtaining action.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Respectfully,
Robert W. Maurer 7/
