To the Editor:

I have written to this column before and am writing this as a follow-up. I lost my home to Sandy and had a new one built 9 feet up on pilings. We are an elderly handicapped couple. I am a veteran of two wars and not too mobile.

Take it from my experience: Beware of builders with fancy advertisements and brochures. When problems occur, there is no help for new home owners.
