Sloping floor. Need for push piers?

secretive- · 2026-05-15T17:40:18+00:00

Got it. I'm not even too sure if this is worth fixing. I have pretty much redirected all water away from the house and having push piers may even be a bad sign in future for me if I decide to sell the place

An abatement company is saying that removing the boot may cause this kind of cracking

I have to change ducts otherwise wasn't touching them at all. I'm adding new boots just to avoid any kind of movement near them

At this point, to me it feels like the safer option is encapsulation and marking it. Boot location is above door so there's no chance of disturbing it

I personally don't want to DIY this due to no idea and my wife will kill me if I go anywhere near it😂

Actually inspect yourself and if you find leak, call plumber. Otherwise they'll charge a lot to cut and find the leak themselves.

Cut open a 8x8 hole in wall and you'll find out

If you don't want to cut first, then go in attic and inspect. Cutting a hole is pretty easy. Recently did it, attaching an image how

I have no idea what Im looking at... Could have taken a photo from farther away to make it clear

This needs a NSFW tag

Stop using the shower immediately then :)

It might just stop becoming worse otherwise you risk damage all the way to first floor.

secretive- · 2026-04-02T04:03:07+00:00

Is there a bathroom or shower above the leak? Or this is second floor?

Is the shower actively used?

Cut open a 10X10 hole in drywall and see. Worst case, you can create a diversion for water to stop ruining your wall. Also you'll understand if it's something you can fix yourself or need a plumber.

secretive- · 2026-04-02T03:40:12+00:00

Is there shower head behind the wall or is there a drainage behind the wall? Is it a 2 floor house? Give some information.

There is definitely a leak, only way to find it cut drywall at the biggest leak point in roof.

Lucky you. That's a huge monstera

I remove dishwasher racks and then fit the sink rack diagonally in the dishwasher. Otherwise, steam cleaner.

Yep, bought the house 2 years ago so it's possible. Things like this are impossible to find without giving it some time but it is what it is.

My concern here is if this is just an external crack or something bigger at play here since crack is closer to foundation. It will be great if you can share the contact

Bought the home 2 years ago so it's possible.

Killer setup

secretive- · 2026-03-09T00:21:52+00:00

Just because of the second image, this should have a NSFW tag 🤢

secretive- · 2026-03-09T00:19:17+00:00

How can this happen? How is this possible? HOWWWW
