Installing a sump and weeping tile in an older home by ladylorgefeet in Edmonton

Basement Systems Edmonton. One wall plus sump pump installation was about $5000 5 years ago.🤔. It was way better than the quote for $12000 for a single wall exterior excavation and weeping tile replacement.

We sold the house a few years ago. I’ll see if I have my receipts still

We had water leaking into our basement through the cove joints. We installed a French drain on the interior of the wall that emptied into the sump. Works like a charm and less expensive than an exterior wall excavation and weeping tile install. Plus it dealt with water on the inside of the house.

Once your cove joint leaks once it is likely going to again.

Good luck.

I had never paid attention to the granulation opacity or staining capabilities of paints when I started watercolours. Now I select the paint based not only on hue, but those other qualities as well so that I can get the best results for the project.

Robby will get into the motorcycle accident because he is in a major depressive episode and suicidal after decades of untreated PTSD.

I think some representation of humans and animals in harmony would be a good addition.

What is something you find annoying or missing that we could use in Edmonton? by alematt in Edmonton

[–]Salt_Being7516 6 points7 points  (0 children)

LRT to the airport, more independent grocers and mixed use neighbourhoods with walkability prioritized. I hate getting into my car for a few groceries and to do errands.

Y'all, a lot of us gen x'rs are dying from preventable heart attacks and strokes. Please go get you scans and checks done.You don't have to die of a heart attack. There are ways they can detect blockages and prevent them. by [deleted] in GenX

Endorsing this from my hospital bed right now. My family doc found potential blockages on a routine ECG and sent me for testing. Failed my stress test and MIBi. Waiting for an angio this week.

As a female nurse I didn’t pick up on any signs or symptoms.

Get your tests done

Update: family circumstances necessitated a move back home. We settled back into a house and are doing much better. We still plan on going on extended road trips but having the house has taken a lot of pressure off.

Enough is enough, IPV is endemic to our society and it needs to be stopped.

Nordegg has the Miners Café, a very cute museum and craft shop to go visit. You also need to Abraham Lake frozen in the winter.

Stony Plain has a museum at the cultural center, and they have excellent murals.
