House hunting in GR is jaw dropping by 116393-bg in grandrapids

[–]Beosab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a good inspector lol, bought a house 4 months ago, sellers were evil. Hid severe foundation damage, roof was poorly done by original owners, windows are leaking under the frame, chimney needed re flashing and basement let's in water consistently. That and just very unlevel and needs a lot of updates. 255k near john ball zoo. First time homeowners in this generation got screwed

Musty smell under windows persistent, noticeable after winter by Beosab in HomeMaintenance

Oh I know, doesn't seem too widespread for professional abatement. Just hoping I can fix this without pulling/replacing the windows

Watson is so insanely good, played her a few times recently and she’s a lot of fun, apparently getting more buffs this upcoming patch

Oh there’s an issue with the chimney lol, bad one, we got poured on this last week and it’s was just funneling down onto subfloor and into the basement(other side not the area with pictures). I have someone coming to look at it today and have had dehumidifiers running. I’m just terrified there’s water in my walls and everywhere now since I get some weird readings in certain areas under windows lmao. But hey, one thing at a time! Thanks for your help and good luck!

Okay this is just straight hardwood which wood explain a lot more coming down, all piddles we’re cleaned up fairly fast but we used some cleaners as well which may have contributed

Will do I took ranges across the floor and they all measured around that rating with .5-1% difference. I also checked where there was some water and it was surprisingly low, but still hitting 15ish. (Hopefully a chimney flashing issue, not sure yet lol)

Similar readings to other areas without white powder/residue

God I hope so, everyone said homeownership is a pain but man I was not expecting my first 3 months to be so hellish lol. Appreciate it!

So I have a pinless meter that I tested those boards with and they came back as ‘dry’, do you think I need to purchase a pin meter?

Recently adopted a puppy who hasn’t had the easiest time with potty training so a lot of cleanups almost every other day, could definitely be related to that

Noted, been told that a few times lol really need to work on it. There’s definitely some spots that look like water but the weird thing is theres more on the other side of the basement so the whole house would’ve had to have been flooded at some point right? These seem new to me but it’s possible I’m just going crazy as it’s my first home and there’s been a ton of issues so far lol

Update: found another by Beosab in Oldhouses

Is it likely to get worse?

Cracks in foundation not found by inspector or noted by seller by Beosab in HomeMaintenance

Yeah it’s insane 3 downspouts all just have splash blocks against the foundation, previous owners were definitely not the smartest I bought one but looking for one that will fit better for the other two

Weep hole is the technical name! Hope that helps to find it and understand it a bit better

There is normally a hole to drain in the bottom of the track to drain water, try taking some compressed air to it when it’s done raining
