Igor,


That's some high tech stuff. Makes me wonder how many of them got trapped in there.

Why are you freaking on your home inspections? Calm down.
Just show your client how to correct this fiasco and write it up.
You're going to have a nervous breakdown!

Hi David,


I guess I freak because this is a new home. It's in the 250k price range. There are multiple people responsible for supervising the construction. There is no excuse for this type of blatant incompetence. The coke bottle I can understand. The lack of roof to brick flashings is a major boo boo.

Inside the structure there was a simpson strong wall that was mislocated as well. Basically, it wasn't tied in to anything of structural significance. I had to call it out to a structural expert.

Maybe freak is too strong a word but I did say "holy sh!t" out loud when I noticed the flashing in the pictures.
