The brick section is where the under part of the house is. But...due to the floods in 2010 and being on a creek, I lost the air condition and I am pretty sure the water is what caused this. I however was a lot better off then so many around me during that time. Sounds like you are getting your place in order, here is hoping that you don't have anymore issues.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211965720334593365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2655671648854655720.post-65960416775931864162018-07-14T13:46:50.791-04:002018-07-14T13:46:50.791-04:00So glad to have given you a chuckle.

We live near the top of a hill so we would really be in trouble if we suffered from flooding! I love the word "persnickety" - in Britain we say "pernickety" but it definitely sounds better with that extra "s". Hope your house problems are sorted soon.Around My Kitchen Tablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840917368903178857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2655671648854655720.post-67618186303399568492018-07-14T07:12:52.745-04:002018-07-14T07:12:52.745-04:00Oh my gosh an entire year you've been going th...Oh my gosh an entire year you've been going through that? I know people constantly under remodel and its daunting and some end up divorced. I bet you feel good with a sealed secure weatherproof place again. I've been painting the cat yard fence after finding a bargain on stain at Walmart, I mean an unbelievable there must be something wrong with it bargain. But many boards actually need replaced not repainted, but that's for another day. Two sides I've finished now, but only on the outside. And I took down the old compost pile that won't compost anything, too dry and too full of roots and did so on the hottest day of the year.

That ceiling needs paint too, it is all bubbled, but we never had a leak. pilch92https://www.blogger.com/profile/12263559408792146826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2655671648854655720.post-26129380325997749542018-07-13T20:39:55.178-04:002018-07-13T20:39:55.178-04:00It's good to have a contractor you trust.It's good to have a contractor you trust.Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.com
