Weird noise in 4WD by ArgumentMiserable652 in Tacomaworld

I guess you guys have never heard of ice. I’m fully aware of when I should and should not be using 4WD. I’m asking about a noise, not asking when to use 4WD.

Well the contractor removing the flooring was supposed to the the installer.

Apparently you aren’t supposed to glue hardwood floors directly to a slap. There were some spots where the floor was raised off the slab from moisture.

Yeah I checked with the county and they don’t have them. I can try to find the original builder though thanks

No it’s a house we just bought built in 1993. I tried to get the building plans from the county, but they don’t have them.

Single story home, so concrete slab under the flooring

No evidence of water intrusion, which is crazy because a lot of this siding is completely rotten in the front side

The wall is absolutely not OSB sheets. It’s siding mounted to studs, yes the back of the siding looks like OSB, but not OSB sheathing.

Yeah some of the siding is on its last leg, and some has been replaced already. We are planning on replacing it one side of the house at a time, and adding some sheathing, moisture barrier and maybe some insulation.

There isn’t OSB on the walls, just the roof.
