So, the temperature in january caused the roof melt to fall, tearing our customers deck off the back of their house. This exposed some siding rot, which (once explored) showed something a little more.....significant.
Due to prolonged water damage happening along the rim joist and sill plate of the house, the framing in between the dogs of the foundation has disintegrated on one side. This is causing a belly to form on the back of the house (right where those 2 sliding doors are) which means: we have to jack up the entire back of the house 1¾" to set this section on a new support beam with 4 lolly columns to support the weight; while we simultaneously reframe the rotted out section, replace and correct the rim joist, strip and resheath the back middle section of the house, remove both sliders to put french doors in, replace the window, and end up building a new pressure treated 12x16 deck off the back.
Phew, that was a mouthful. Keep a lookout, this one is gonna get interesting.
