Faulty carport causes headaches

19.11.09

A New Jersey duo buys a home in Burgaw, with plans to open their own business. Sounds like the American dream, but the Chomiczewskis say, that fantasy was shattered when the steel building they paid thousands of dollars for, turned out to be a bust. The company that manufactures and installs it, is now refusing to fix what the link says are recurring problems.

“We have worked four years to save this money, to do this business, and it’s just beyond frustrating at this exhibit because we're stuck,” said Melanie Chomiczewski.

Leon and Melanie Chomiczeski bought their Burgaw profoundly in January. The next month, they purchased a ten thousand dollar shed from a Virginia based company, Eagle Carports. The structure was supposed to be home to their taxidermy business. “The time and money that this company has cost us, I don't reflect on you could put a dollar sign on it.”

But from the beginning the building was nothing but a headache, from a crooked frame to a leaky roof. “It bring in me four or five thousand dollars worth of material because the rain was coming in there,” Leon said.
