ep.22 we started building
Added 2024-07-29 13:00:13 +0000 UTCWhat goes into fixing a water-damaged wall? A lot more than you might think. What started as a small repair quickly expanded to include sill plates, rim joists, floor joists—you name it. Join us as we discuss the ins and outs of identifying the root of the damage, the work involved in making replacements, and what it takes to fit in the new pieces. We conclude this episode by answering some questions from our Q&A: What is your favorite new tool? What do you love most about rebuilding?

Question!! Watching the YouTube video now....did the same builder, build the neighbors homes?? And if so has the uncovering of so many issues in the peanut house alarmed them??

2024-07-31 19:46:05 +0000 UTCI wish I remembered more about this. But I graduated in geology 24 years ago and I remember a professor talking about asbestos and how it's not always as dangerous as you think. There are some kinds that are dangerous but most of it, like probably what was in your house, isn't dangerous. I'm assuming that's why the inspector didn't worry about touching it. But I don't remember the specifics anymore unfortunately. Really crazy huh?!
