EATON CREST APARTMENTS

EATONTOWN, NJ 07724







I RECENTLY MOVED TO A NEW APARTMENT IN EATONTOWN, NJ. THE APARTMENT IS WELL LOCATED AND THE FLOOR IS VERY NICE; HOWEVER, AS THE COLD WINTER SETS IN, THE WATER FROM CONDENSATION AND BLACK MOLD BEGAN TO APPEAR AROUND THE METAL WINDOW. THE PAINT AROUND THE WINDOWS STARTED TO COME OFF. AND CRACKS AND WATER AROUND THE WINDOWS ARE VERY COMMON



EVERY MORNING, I HAVE TO DRY THE WINDOWS FRAME. SOMETIMES WHEN I FORGET TO CLEAN THE FRAME, BY THE NEXT DAY A BLACK MOLD APPEARS NEAR THE CORNERS OF THE WINDOW.





I SPOKE WITH THE MAINTENANCE PEOPLE, AND I WAS TOLD THAT EVERY APARTMENT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. AND THAT ONLY SOLUTION WAS TO CHANGE THE WINDOWS TO AVOID WATER FROM COMING IN.



I TRY TO PUT PLASTIC TO COVER THE WINDOWS, BUT THE PLASTIC DON?T STICK BECAUSE OF TOO MUCH WATER COMES IN.



I WAS NOT EXPECTING THE WINDOWS TO BE REPLACED, BUT I ASKED IF THEY COULD PUT MORE SILICONE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOWS TO ALLEVIATE THE POOR INSULATION. BUT APPARENTLY THEY DID NOT LIKE MY IDEA THAT WAS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK.



MY PURPOSE IS NOT TO MAKE BAD PUBLICITY ABOUT EATON CREST APARTMENTS IN EATONTOWN, NJ. MY GOAL IS TO INFORM OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT THE POOR QUALITY OF THE WINDOWS DURING THE WINTER MONTHS.



BELOW IS A PICTURE TAKING DURING THE MONTH OF JANUARY 2002. (IT IS COLD OUTSIDE)



ALL OF THE PICTURES WERE TAKING FROM THE INSIDE OF APARTMENT. AS YOU CAN SEE THE WINDOWS ARE NOT PROVIDING A GOOD INSULATION DURING THE COLD MONTHS. AND TO MAKE THE SITUATION WORSE THE HEATING IS ALSO ELECTRIC AND IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN YOUR RENT.





PS: JAN 18 2003 WINDOWS WERE FROZEN AND CHUNKS OF ICE AROUND WINDOW(INSIDE)
