My professional background is in residential Energy Efficiency consulting, so I am familiar with retrofit projects as they relate to occupant comfort, improving energy bills, improving indoor air quality, and health & safety.

And this is an electrical work for a Fortune 500 company who is listed in the Fortune Top 50, so safety to them is of the utmost importance and making sure you have a complete understanding of electrical and controls skills.Thanks everyone in advance...

A little food for thought.

These issues are not a safety or health concern, so it's not required by law to be rectified in a week, correct?

@Jason DiClemente Prinarily it would be for peace of mind to reduce any safety issues with Natural Gas/CO.

I’d have to see the porch to know if it’s a safety issue, but if it is then do it. 

I want to get a good deal, but my highest priority is my personal safety.

Just some food for thought.

I've found the single most important element to your safety is for borrower to have skin in the game.
