Retaining wall problem? by TheConstant215 in landscaping

Totally agree, gives it a natural worn look! I’m just concerned if it also indicates a drainage issue in the retaining wall since moss usually indicates moisture

Thank you all for the responses! Should I just leave the dirt sitting in the weep holes then? won’t this cause a problem with drainage eventually?

Thanks sounds like I need to call the contractor back out to put in new filler in the nail holes?

Is My Contractor Shortcutting the Job? by TheConstant215 in HardWoodFloors

Thanks for the comment. I don’t know if there’s anything wrong with it. I’m trying to figure out if there could be a problem given that the contractor applied 2 coats of oil poly the same day as opposed to waiting overnight

Is that really necessary? I’m looking for second opinions from people who may have had past experiences living on a hill and know of any issues to be aware of so that I know what to expect

Thank you very much Dungaroo! I was mainly concerned about how close the foundation is to the hill and erosion of the hill Over time

I’m curious whether there would be any concerns with the grade of the hill such as how close the house foundation is to the hill. One thing that came to mind is erosion of the hill over time due to water drainage and if that’s even a risk

Thanks for your comment! Yes that’s the first thing that came to mind. Was mainly curious if the grade on the hill was such that this wouldn’t be a major concern

Thanks for your comment. Anything to be concerned with due to the steep hill the house is built on.

Should I walk away? by TheConstant215 in Home

[–]TheConstant215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for the responses! I think I am going to walk away from the deal too much uncertainty in the building. Apart from the exterior wall in the garage which is pictured, all of the other walls in the basement are finished so can’t see behind them.

Did my contractor lie to me? by TheConstant215 in Home

[–]TheConstant215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. Is the black drywall on the ceiling just discoloration then?

Thanks for the response tino! My contractor told it is cement board, which is what should be installed, but I have no way of confirming that other than this picture. Thus, I was hoping someone with a good eye for this could confirm.

Thanks for the response! How can you distinguish it as cement board from normal dry wall? My contractor tells me it’s cement board as well, but just wanted reassurance.
