In our 55+ community, all owners have light domes that automatically turn on in the evening. The domes are maintained by Garden Patio Villas and taken care of when there are issues with these lights. These dome lights are very valuable because they are also our night lighting within our home owners association.
This past week we got a call that one of the lights were out. Joe, our Maintenance Coordinator takes care of replacing them. When the new light bulb didn’t work, he looked inside and with a new kit realized this was a much bigger problem then expected!
Joe, called Ralph, another handyman who is also an Owner in our association to help work on the problem. Together they realized ants were inside and ate some of the metal!
These pictures show both men working hard on Lemon Tree. To make the story short, they had to replace conduit, add new cable and piping. The next day Ralph added cement at the base to make certain this wouldn’t happen again
This all originated from a tree that previously was there and fell on the light dome, many, many years ago!. This project, if an Electrician had done the work, would have been a much bigger bill! Thanks to Joe and Ralph for their hard work so our Association, Garden Patio Villas, can continue to improve and keep our costs to a minimum!
