    This series has been so valuable to me that I subscribed. We had a new concrete patio poured off of the sliding doors that once led to a wooden deck. The patio slope away from the house is very adequate but vertical siding was cut to length so that the step down from house to patio was minimal which exposed the rim joist under that door to moisture wicking from the cement at the bottom which would of course spread to the entire member. I searched YT for ideas on sealing and finishing that area from water intrusion from rain splash and snow accumulation. I had a few ideas but no specific product knowledge or effective technique. This series has helped me immensely in coming up with a plan that will contribute greatly to a long term prevention of water damage to the rim joist. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in your content.

    Thank you for the super informative video. It is greatly appreciated. Do you have a series on lifting and supporting the structure? Also, how long would the structure be safe lifted like that? I ask because I am facing the need to replace the foundation under my garage. Everything is out of whack. Doors, roof, rafters, one wall is 6” off the foundation…

      This is the playlist from those repairs. The garage can be left lifted for several weeks or longer provided it is supported properly.

      @@detroitdiy not seeing any video about lifting the structure. I have a general idea, but am worried about the current structure falling over while I am lifting it. The plan was to create angles inside the garage from the walls to the roof and then place 2x12’s on the inside and out. Then lift it a little at a time on each of the 4 corners. Is a bottle jack recommended? Or are there large structure jacks that can be used?

    • @detroitdiy
      @detroitdiy  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Bottle Jack's work fine. 4 five tons are more than enough. Could probably use 3 ton jacks.
