Maksimuk also noticed a van parked in front of the residence with signage that read, "Work for Less 719 578-8000 ColoradoWorkForLess.com Handyman, Plumbing, Electrical,Remodels, HVAC & More" Maksimuk observed the worker, Ron Fresquez, attempting to encase a painted wood window frame with sheet aluminum by hammering the metal to the contour of the painted wood frame. In doing so, paint chips fell on the concrete patio floor. Mr. Fresquez did this repeatedly on multiple areas around the window. Maksimuk identified himself to Mr. Fresquez and explained the purpose of the visit. A separate inspection report was prepared for Ron Fresquez Handyman. During this time, Robert Washington exited the house and asked, "What's going on?" Maksimuk briefly observed the interior of the house. The interior, where visible, had what appeared to be newly painted walls and possible tarps on the floor. There was no furniture visible or household decorations or other items which indicated there were no occupants currently living there. Maksimuk asked Mr. Fresquez if he was working for "Work for Less". Mr. Fresquez stated he was working for Mr. Washington on this one project and was acting as an independent contractor. He said he does normally work for Mr. Washington's company, "Work For Less". Maksimuk then asked Mr. Washington, "is this your house?" He replied "yes". Maksimuk asked Mr. Washington, "do you currently live here?" Mr. Washington glanced over his left shoulder and quickly looked at the front door and with hesitation replied, "yes". As Maksimuk was obtaining Mr. Fresquez's information for the report, Mr. Washington re-entered the house. A few moments later, the door opened and Mr. Washington exited the house, narrowly opening the door and quickly closing it behind him. This time, Maksimuk was not able to view any portion of the interior of the house. Mr. Washington told Maksimuk that he knew that all this was about lead paint. He said, when a certain amount of paint is disturbed, certain things like putting plastic on the ground must be done to contain the mess. He further said, I think it has to be done when more than 6-square feet are disturbed. Maksimuk observed the exterior of the house was freshly painted and paint chips were on the ground in many areas. Mr. Washington stated "the paint chips are there because I painted the exterior of the house myself about 2-weeks ago". Based on the inspector's observations, this house is likely a rental property and the painting work performed by Mr. Washington would be a regulated RRP activity. Public records show Mr. Washington currently lives at 26 Bridle Trail, Pueblo CO 81005, not at the inspected location. Facility Name: Work For Less Photo #: P3080671 P3080672 P3080673 P3080674 PHOTO LOG Subject House with Mr. Fresquez working on Window Time 01:28 ICIS #: 3601516614 Notes Rear View of Mr. Fresquez visible House with Mr. Fresquez working on Window 01:29 Front View of Mr. Fresquez visible Work For Less van in front of house 01:39 Front of House - No Workers in photo 02:01 Date: 03/08/2023 4 OF 6 Facility Name: Work For Less Photo #: Subject PHOTO LOG Time ICIS #: 3601516614 Notes Date: 03/08/2023 AGE NK P BLA 5 OF 6 Document No. R8QP-2015 RO Effective Date 4/19/2016 EPA Region 8 402c Renovation, Repair, and Painting Rule Inspection List 6 OF 6 Facility Name: Work For Less ICIS #: 3601516614 RECORD OF REVIEW Inspector Inspector who prepared report: Christopher Maksimuk Signature: Maksimuk, Christopher Reviewed by: Kristin Jendrek Digitally signed by Maksimuk, Christopher Date: 2023.05.16 15:23:23 -06'00' Reviewer Date report completed: Signature: Digitally signed by KRISTIN JENDREK Date: 2023.05.16 16:19:11 -06'00' Date: 05/16/2023 1/3/2020 11:04 AM
