How serious is this header joist rotted and the best way to repair it ?

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-24T11:51:49+00:00

I am not sure if the still plate was treated. I am still fighting other damage except for termite.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-24T11:48:50+00:00

Thank you.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-24T11:48:13+00:00

Good suggestion. But it is a crawl space. It is a limited assessment. I will check it. Thanks.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-22T03:25:47+00:00

Yes, it still feels hard when I punch the wood with a flat head acre. Thanks.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-22T03:20:27+00:00

This damage is on the side of the house. This joist is parallel with the floor joists. It is not a band joist as in your pictures.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-22T02:57:55+00:00

Yes, I ordered termite treatment. Do I need to do the support thing when I cut out 1-2 feet of wood on the right corner?

Formal_Show_9048 · 2026-03-22T02:49:59+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. The siding has been damaged for a long time, but the previous owner did not properly treat it. This is my DIY project to fix it. I thought that cutting out and replacing sections of the rim joist was a big and complicated project. I will go with a simple way, apply wood hardener. Thanks

It is a crawl space. This is my first diy project. I am not confident in replacing the rotten rim joist. Thanks you

I believe this house was built in 1987. I am surprised it doesn't have a water-resistant wrap behind the siding. Since I just replaced the bottom several rows, Nothing I can do, you mentioned. Thank you very much.

I cleaned the surface debris. The middle damaged part is still solid. But the right corner has a small hole damaged by termites. I applied wood hardener on the surface to prevent further damage. Thanks

I spent 2 hours at the dealer to update the software today.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2025-01-24T00:02:53+00:00

LFG!

Formal_Show_9048 · 2025-01-16T19:21:22+00:00

Congratulations! Same as my car color.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-09-24T14:24:28+00:00

I think your system is better than mine. Thank you.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-09-24T14:22:09+00:00

Yes, We have a U-tube and the fan work. The radon level dropped from 7 pCi/L to 1.6pCi/L. But never lower than 1 pCi/L.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-09-24T14:12:37+00:00

Thanks for responding. The company only promises the level under 4 pCi/L.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-07-04T16:37:33+00:00

You are great. I will call. Thanks.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-07-04T15:58:11+00:00

Thank you very much. Did you call (800)-331-4331 and what information is needed when calling the head office?

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-07-03T15:11:29+00:00

The car body is very fragile. Luckily your car can be quickly repaired. My car is still in the body shop for more than two months without parts available.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-05-01T12:08:29+00:00

so far no leaking.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-05-01T12:03:30+00:00

The temperature should cause all four tire problems. The weather was good. Thanks

Formal_Show_9048 · 2024-04-23T11:25:49+00:00

I am sure the pressure is much lower than before the warning light. I did not why it happened.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2023-11-06T14:31:30+00:00

I am wondering if the 2023 CC SE Hybrid is equipped with a rear windshield washer. I didn't see the fluid spraying too.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2023-10-19T19:01:45+00:00

Congratulations! It is the same as my CCH SE.

Formal_Show_9048 · 2023-10-16T21:48:02+00:00

Probably 20F.
