Rains Property Inspections

Who has ever seen one of these? I’ve been in thousands of homes. This is only the 2nd corner toilet I’ve come across. The first one in a 35 YO Ponte Vedra home. This one in a 100 YO riverside home. I ‘m not sure why I think it’s funny but it damn sure is to me!
Let me know if you have ever seen one of these.

Always great to get a message like this before vacay!
I’ll be back and booking beginning 7-29.

Interesting story from this week. I got a call from a homeowner who wanted to know if I could come right now that the patio cover project ongoing at the rear of their home had experienced water intrusion during the tie in to the existing roof. The contractor was drying the area and telling them that it was now dry and they would skim some drywall and repaint tomorrow. Ok OK I’m on my way. 3 miles from home no problem.

You can see in the photos what they have. Wet Wet Wet. They need professional water extraction paid for by the contractor. Not their workers trying to be extractors.

Don’t let contractors tell you how it’s going to go.

They just keep coming! Have a great weekend everyone!

We’ve got a “Rains Ready” home in Nocatee. This home has been inspected and the report is available for potential buyers to make their best offer with any issues already on the table!
I expect this beauty to go quickly.

From why are my feet wet? to why is this room so hot? It’s only Tuesday!

Sometimes you have to more careful than usual on a roof!
The client had recently had their ductwork replaced in the attic. I’m guessing the installer was having a bad day. Yes the screws are pointing straight up. That’s how dude decided he would attach the support webbing. lol! You can’t make this up!

’s a couple of fun pics from a new construction inspection this week. What you see here is a plumbing vent that still has the cap left on from pressure testing. Then the lazy roofer just said screw it and put his lead boot over it. “Not My Job”. Who cares if doesn’t drain well or smells back up.
Next is a water heater sitting on a small chunk of concrete. This will damage the tank over time.
Call RPI. We see stuff you don’t.

I freshed up the side graphics on the Subie today. The 3 year old stuff was looking pretty tired. Still not sure what the future of this 190,000 mile car will be. Do I give it to Brylee this winter or do I get her a be**er and keep driving this. It’s got new wheel bearings and new breaks. Drives like new!

Why have we been doing things backwards?

Started the day with a polybutylene plumbed Middleburg mobile home built in 1995 with a 1989 water heater and finished with a 5000sq ft beauty on Ponte Vedra. Polar opposites. Dang I love what I do! You get to see it all!
