Incoming Projects at the Farm

The home inspection highlighted several immediate repairs and desired upgrades:

  • High Priority: Primary Bath Floor & Plumbing:
    • Repair: Serious rot in floor under the shower. Needs structural repair ASAP.
    • Upgrade: Relocate water heater from crawlspace to a bathroom closet.
    • Upgrade: Replace existing 35gal tank with a high-capacity 85gal electric tank (to support Erin"s legendary hot showers).
  • Front Door Threshold: Rot detected under font door. Requires sistering a 2x8 board to existing structure. (Contractor project: tight crawlspace access.)
  • Back Deck: Poor condition; likely demolition and rebuild project.
