:45 mark and 2:25, the installation of an interior drainage system that did not stop water intrusion in basement from at least some exterior cracks in block wall
“Easily in the top 1% of all inspectors in the nation”
:50 at least 1 vertical crack and a horizontal crack down low, at top of first block from the floor… efflorescence. He says, the stains from moisture intrusion.
Well, lol the water/moisture intrusion is because there ARE exterior cracks in the block wall n so THOSE are what need to be fixed aka waterproofed on the exterior.
Gee, okay i guess lol, just thought a home inspector might think it’s kind of important to ‘get into’ the problems with having an INT system that does not stop water from getting in through existing exterior cracks in block wall, ummm, potential buyers might like to know this.
Well, I guess since you didn’t include a photo of a putty knife jammed in a wall crack, followed by some off-the-wall photos of some bizarre thing/person/MEME, the point wasn’t very clear…
In case you didn’t see it, that 2nd video is titled “Basement interior drain systems - what you need to know before spending your $$$”. It’s not exactly the same subject matter.
so you enjpy attacking honest contractors and cover for the INT system scammers huh lol
sorry your feelings got pinched after another Nachi inspector showed you how to better inform clients that had a moron fraudulent INT system instaled
His video says, ‘Basement inspection’, so you don’t think it’s important to show/inform clients of existing defects aka cracks n walls, leaky basement, and that an INT system was installed when it shouldn’t have been eh… that’s NOT part of a ‘basement inspection’? lol okay tough guy
some Nachi members cryyyyyyy about anything n everything, no sht
I found it interesting he did not even acknowledge the internal system was in place much less provide an opinion. He did note the sump was not working, big whoop. I question if he knew what he was looking at.
I think basic observation was lacking. That is the lesson I come away with here. Not the crusade against internal systems but rather understanding what an inspector will encounter, how to describe it and what to report on.
you were handed your hat, periid, how many basements, F walls have you inspected in Fla-land?
there are a few Nachi inspectors here who don’t mind my posts/videos, they apparently don’t feel a need to slam me as i think they can see a few of us are honest n experienced contractors and in today’s world that means more than it used to
told ya, Josh’s video above just showed you how to go about informing clients of SHTT they SHOULD know, jezuz lol go ahead n cry some more
Yeah Brian, that’s what hit me… a “basement inspection” where an INT system was installed when it should not have and the future cost of getting it done right goes to…buyers.
Crusade against INT systems? lol Well, they are frauds, they lie n cheat many homeowners. They out number me by a ton, so does their advertising etc, not even close.
As a home inspector, there is not much to report on other than components consistent with an internal system. As an inspector, you can only report on what you can see. It is a slippery slope reporting on hidden components or predicting future performance.
