Waterproof! And Not.

Our basement has been interior french drained!

It really helps to turn the well off before disconnecting it.

More... carefully removing the water tank.

Good thing we're getting a new water heater?

Construction adhesived the command center since we had to chop the base.

It's so gravely!

And shadowy.

Working on the sump pump.

Our foundation has weep holes!  Now it can cry.

Cement poured.

Woot, new pump, with a backup battery pump too, in case.

Looking sharp!

So lovely.  And our furnace will be staying away from the wall for a while.

Unfortunately, other parts of our house are not as waterproofed.

Our fireplace and chimney!

Was leaking, so we had to remove it.

Handy dandy home depot bucket.  Oh how you complete my life.

So wet!

Don't worry guys, we got this.  We're pros.

But we really do need our siding fixed ASAP.

On a brighter note, our house is finally getting slowly jacked up!

Nine home depot buckets!  Be still my heart.

Needed to dig the dirt out and flared to create a deep enough and wide enough footer foundation for the poles!

This is how we keep buildings up in Michigan.

Eventually the beam will be at the line!  Maybe.

Meanwhile, DH and I have been busy too!

We transported pipes to the house in a safe manner.

DH created pipes!  And started hooking them up!

I cleaned the studs of drywall screws and construction adhesive.

We put up blocks to stop air flow!

Pods!

Red stuff!
