Leaky roof angers condo owner
I bought a condominium in Mainlands of Tamarac by the Gulf on Aug. 16, 2000. Our maintenance fee is $177 a month. Among other things, it covers repair or replacement of the roof. My home was built in 1969, so it's 32 years old. This past May, I had several leaks. When the repairmen came to fix it, I learned that the same general area had been repaired before. I have had work done on my house five different times in the last five months, in several different locations. There have been leaks in the garage, kitchen, living and bedrooms. The repair crew had a vinyl cover over my roof for most of the summer. There are five-gallon buckets in my attic right now.
