Home Inspection Holtsville: Improper Foundation Support

631-902-6761

And the local municipility passed this???

Home Inspection Holtsville: This added concrete block foundation was improperly installed onto an original foundation.

There is no sill plate for support, and the vertical 4 by 4's resting in the soil supporting this addition will rot over time. The agent stated the local municipality passed off this house so it is obvious nobody went inside from the town of Brookhaven (also known as Crookhaven).

The girder is one piece of lumber instead of two, and is not resting in a girder pocket, but on 4 by 4's in the soil which can rot and be infested with termites.


Don’t be ridiculous, call Meticulous!
