Tim talks about new changes at his Web site and his help videos uploaded on http://video.Google.com. He answers callers' questions about a bad thermostat, dead electrical outlets, condensation on a stone wall, musty clothes above a crawlspace and foundation crack repair.
Foundation drain tile is a critical component in new construction. This pipe and the clean gravel that surrounds it quickly moves water away from your foundation. If water is not drawn away from a foundation, it can leak into a basement or crawlspace.
Frost inside an attic is a sign that something is terribly wrong. Water vapor is condensing on the cold roof surfaces and then freezing. The source of the water must be found and stopped. Wood rot and mold are a reality if the frost continues to form.
Some residential lots are not very flat. Building a slab house on this sloping ground can create extra work and expense. Constructing a full basement is perhaps a better choice in this situation.
