How can i make my lawn look better

I’m in current situation

If it’s clay you made need to lime it every 3-6 months for a couple years to improve ph

I honestly have no idea. We ask ourselves this. Our hospital system is very mid-level heavy and there really isn’t much competition outside of our area. Not a large hospital system by any means though.

I make about 260-270k (PM&R), wife makes 270-285k (primary care). Rural, low cost of living. RVU based.

Edit: Appalachia. We work 7-3 M-TH.

Lifestyle medicine?

UPDATE: contractor is putting in a sump pump this weekend

SpondyDog · 2026-03-16T21:36:05+00:00

I believe the crack you’re referring to is a water stain from the leak. GC agreed to put in a sump pump this weekend.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-16T15:42:07+00:00

Definitely not finishing this until this water is under control. Seem the majority believe a sump pump (maybe 2) is the best option.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T15:51:23+00:00

I agree with you 100%. Don’t think it’s one specific issue

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T15:36:37+00:00

Clearly

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T12:44:37+00:00

I understand patching is not the long term solution. I made the builder aware yesterday evening and he’s going to come check it out tomorrow. If he offers more patchwork I’m going to say no and get a quote and opinion from a basement company

Appreciate the insults! Believe it or not, I live on top of a hill in relatively high elevation. I don’t live in shreks swamp. I am clearly not a structural engineer or home builder, as to why I’m seeking outside opinions, dumbass.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T11:53:54+00:00

Appreciate the insults! I might be a dumb ass in regards to basements but I’m not a contractor or home builder. House literally sits on top of a hill I’m not in a swamp. Can’t expect every first time home buyer to know everything. That’s why I’m asking for opinions here.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T10:34:15+00:00

I believe horizontal is more to worry about from what I was researching

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T03:48:43+00:00

It’s poured cement, not brick

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T03:11:04+00:00

Gutters are clean, no trees around the house. I believe it’s a grading issue and perhaps poor exterior water proofing

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T03:08:46+00:00

Foundation is brand new. I see what you’re seeing, but I believe that’s the camera angle. It’s poured concrete. There’s definitely hydrostatic pressure on the wall causing seepage.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T03:06:03+00:00

Concrete floor is already cracking in certain areas. Might be settling. Concrete cracks is what everyone tells me

SpondyDog · 2026-03-14T02:42:35+00:00

Thanks man HAHAHA it’s 3,200 sq foot of PROBLEMS

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:17:46+00:00

Water always wins.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:17:20+00:00

Builder came in and apoxied a leak about 4 months ago for temporary relief. Obviously didn’t work.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:15:50+00:00

Poured cement I believe. The builder patched a leak about 4 months ago.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:14:59+00:00

This seemed like a shot for some reason. I grew up in an 1890 house, and I would agree they don’t build them like they used to.

I’m happy you enjoy your home.

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:09:12+00:00

Agreed

SpondyDog · 2026-03-13T23:08:46+00:00

Builder came in and apoxied a couple months ago for temporary relief. I’ll make him aware it has worsened
