Starting another Napa renovation project this new year!
In addition to the planned kitchen and bathroom renovations, we uncovered some foundation issues that need to be addressed.
In the crawlspace, we observed multiple pier-and-post supports with improper bearing — including posts not fully contacting their concrete piers, gaps that had been shimmed, and some posts that were not adequately supporting the main girders.
It has also been a rainy season, so much of the crawlspace has been occupied with water so our first step before doing anything is to install a sump pump!
