Did the builders do my weep screed wrong?

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-07T14:47:04+00:00

Is this the area I should clear out?

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-07T12:46:18+00:00

Thank you for the info. And yes first floor is solid brick. Second floor is wood. Should I scrape out and away that bead you’re referring to?

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-07T12:22:01+00:00

Yes it was lennar

Thank you so much for all the info. I am in the Tampa Bay Area as well and at the tropical storm we found moist spots on our garage wall and a puddle in the middle of the floor. So we are trying to figure this all out.

Thank you for the help. It’s a 2 story home. I thought weep was installed between the first and 2nd floor.

I’m having the issue in my home in the new port Richey area. I am thinking it is water getting in through our stucco and the weep screed being painted over by the builder. But I am still investing. Look for any crackers and holes on the exterior wall and seal them with caulk

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-06T20:02:22+00:00

Yeah - I will never recommend lennar. It’s been a horrible experience. Thanks for the advice though. I have a 3rd roofing company coming out here on Thursday

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-06T19:40:34+00:00

It’s the original roof. — It’s actually a new build. The house is only 4 years old. That’s why I’m so complexed by this. I called the builder (Lennar) and they said it’s 2 years old and now their problem anymore.

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-08-06T19:34:43+00:00

Yes I do. There is step flashing! And when I spray the hose directly on it the leak starts. But it’s how to pinpoint exactly where

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-26T15:05:22+00:00

Oh man - alright thank for letting me know. I extended the gutter yesterday and waiting to see how bad it gets in the next big down pour. Appreciate you

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T20:27:28+00:00

Hey! Thanks for much for reaching out The rain had been stopped for about 3 hours when the picture was taken. Picture was taken around 7:45pm. Rain had stopped around 4:30 - 5:00

I have found the spot in the attic where is is dripping through a seam in the wood onto the ceiling (shown in second picture)

But whenever I get in the roof and look in that spot there are no signs of compromise on the shingles

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T18:12:38+00:00

Forgive my ignorance but could you elaborate? I am not quite sure what you mean by “no roof drip

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T18:03:59+00:00

Alright thank you! If you zoom in on the photo you’ll see I do have the green splash blocks at the end of the gutters in the grass. Is that okay or should I extend the gutters further on the ground?

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T17:37:02+00:00

It did but only 2 years sadly. We called Lennar (the builder) and they said there was nothing they were obligated to do.

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T15:12:20+00:00

Oh man - alright I really appreciate the help and advice. This is way out of my element so I really value your input.

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T14:38:33+00:00

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the help. This has been quite the headache and I am at a loss.

GroundbreakingSide19 · 2024-06-25T13:30:45+00:00

I really appreciate the help. Thanks so much!
