  what

  you're

  doing

• 2:09
  dark
• 2:10
  underworld
• 2:10
  of
• 2:11
  foundation
• 2:11
  repair
• 2:12
  and
• 2:12
  I
• 2:12
  don't
• 2:12
  want
• 2:12
  to
• 2:12
  go
• 2:12
  out
• 2:12
  and
• 2:12
  hammer
• 2:13
  on
• 2:13
  an
• 2:13
  industry
• 2:13
  out
• 2:14
  there.
• 2:14
  There's
• 2:15
  a
• 2:15
  lot
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  great
• 2:15
  people
• 2:16
  out
• 2:16
  there,
• 2:17
  but
• 2:17
  there's
• 2:17
  also
• 2:17
  a
• 2:18
  lot
• 2:18
  of
• 2:18
  one,
• 2:18
  a
• 2:18
  lot
• 2:19
  of
• 2:19
  people
• 2:19
  out
• 2:19
  there
• 2:20
  that
• 2:20
  are
• 2:20
  making
• 2:20
  millions
• 2:21
  of
• 2:21
  dollars
• 2:21
  a
• 2:22
  year
• 2:22
  with
• 2:22
  fear
• 2:23
  and
• 2:23
  lack
• 2:23
  of
• 2:23
  knowledge
• 2:24
  of
• 2:24
  homeowners,
• 2:25
  and
• 2:26
  they're
• 2:26
  getting
• 2:26
  rich
• 2:27
  off
• 2:27
  an
• 2:28
  unfortunate
• 2:28
  situation.
• 2:29
  That's
• 2:29
  exactly
• 2:30
  right.
• 2:31
  It's
• 2:31
  just
• 2:31
  shocking
• 2:32
  how
• 2:32
  much
• 2:32
  it
• 2:33
  is.
• 2:33
  We
• 2:33
  see
• 2:33
  people
• 2:33
  out
• 2:34
  there
• 2:34
  with

  duct
• 2:34
  cleaning
• 2:35
  and
• 2:35
  that
• 2:35
  kind
• 2:35
  of
• 2:35
  stuff,
• 2:36
  but
• 2:36
  I
• 2:36
  think
• 2:36
  our
• 2:37
  number
• 2:37
  one
• 2:38
  thing
• 2:38
  that's
• 2:39
  fleecing
• 2:39
  homeowners
• 2:40
  these
• 2:40
  days
• 2:41
  is
• 2:41
  broken
• 2:42
  foundations,
• 2:43
  cracks
• 2:43
  in
• 2:43
  the
• 2:43
  foundation,
• 2:44
  or
• 2:44
  even
• 2:44
  water
• 2:45
  in
• 2:45
  the
• 2:45
  basement.
• 2:46
  And
• 2:47
  I
• 2:47
  love
• 2:47
  what
• 2:47
  you've
• 2:47
  been
• 2:48
  doing,
• 2:49
  and
• 2:49
  it
• 2:49
  seemed
• 2:49
  like
• 2:49
  you've
• 2:50
  been
• 2:50
  doing
• 2:50
  this
• 2:50
  for
• 2:50
  a
• 2:51
  long
• 2:51
  time.
• 2:51
  Yeah,

  35
• 2:52
  years.
• 2:53
  And
• 2:54
  there's
• 2:54
  there
• 2:54
  is
• 2:55
  a
• 2:55
  tremendous,
• 2:55
  as
• 2:55
  you
• 2:56
  pointed
• 2:56
  out,
• 2:56
  there's
• 2:56
  a
• 2:56
  tremendous
• 2:57
  amount
• 2:57
  of
• 2:57
  myths
• 2:58

  won't
• 3:02
  get
• 3:02
  through
• 3:02
  them
• 3:02
  all
• 3:03
  because
• 3:03
  it'd

  amazing

  We

  have

  seen
• 3:43
  in
• 3:43
  my
• 3:43
  area
• 3:43
  here.
• 3:44
  Great
• 3:44
  example,
• 3:44
  Bob.
• 3:45
  We
• 3:45
  have
• 3:45
  a
• 3:46
  bunch
• 3:46
  of
• 3:46
  homes
• 3:46
  here
• 3:47
  in
• 3:47
  my
• 3:47
  Portland,
• 3:47
  Oregon
• 3:48
  metro
• 3:48
  area
• 3:49
  that
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  city
• 3:49
  of
• 3:49
  Portland
• 3:50
  did
• 3:50
  a
• 3:50
  disservice
• 3:51
  to.
• 3:52
  We
• 3:52
  have
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  bunch
• 3:52
  of
• 3:53
  homes
• 3:53
  between
• 3:53
  19
• 3:55
  to
• 3:55
  1930
• 3:57
  where
• 3:57
  they
• 3:57
  weren't
• 3:57
  washing
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  sand
• 3:59
  and
• 4:00
  just
• 4:01
  horrible
• 4:01
  concrete.
• 4:02
  And
• 4:03
  then
• 4:03
  about
• 4:03
  30
• 4:04
  or
• 4:04
  40
• 4:04
  years
• 4:05
  ago,
• 4:05
  they
• 4:06
  realized
• 4:06
  that
• 4:06
  all
• 4:06
  the
• 4:07
  storm
• 4:07
  drains
• 4:07
  coming
• 4:07
  off
• 4:08
  of
• 4:08
  people's
• 4:08
  gutters
• 4:08
  that
• 4:09
  they
• 4:09
  put
• 4:09
  into
• 4:09
  the
• 4:09
  sewer
• 4:10
  system,
• 4:10
  it
• 4:11
  was
• 4:11
  overwhelming
• 4:11
  the
• 4:11
  sewer
• 4:12
  system
• 4:12
  when
• 4:12
  you
• 4:12
  get
• 4:12
  our
• 4:12
  rain.
• 4:13
  So
• 4:13
  they
• 4:13
  paid
• 4:13
  people
• 4:14
  with
• 4:14
  tax
• 4:14
  rebates
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  disconnect
• 4:16
  those
• 4:16
  downspouts
• 4:18
  and
• 4:18
  drop
• 4:18
  those.
• 4:19
  Didn't
• 4:19
  tell
• 4:20
  them
• 4:20
  they
• 4:20
  had
• 4:20
  to
• 4:20
  do
• 4:20
  it.
• 4:20
  Right.
• 4:20
  They
• 4:20
  just
• 4:21
  capped
• 4:21
  off
• 4:21
  the.
• 4:22
  Put
• 4:22
  a
• 4:22
  lead
• 4:22
  seal
• 4:23
  and
• 4:23
  capped
• 4:23
  off
• 4:23
  the
• 4:24
  sewer
• 4:24
  drain
• 4:24
  there
• 4:25
  and
• 4:25
  dropped
• 4:25
  them
• 4:26
  right
• 4:26
  next
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  the
• 4:26
  foundation.
• 4:27
  Now
• 4:27
  we
• 4:28
  got
• 4:28
  100,000
• 4:28
  plus
• 4:29
  homes
• 4:29
  out
• 4:29
  there
• 4:29
  with
• 4:29
  foundation
• 4:30
  issues.
• 4:31
  Yep.
• 4:32
  Yeah,
• 4:32
  water
• 4:32
  is
• 4:32
  a
• 4:33
  catalyst
• 4:33
  for
• 4:33
  sure.
• 4:34
  It
• 4:34
  is
• 4:34
  shocking.
• 4:35
  I
• 4:35
  have
• 4:35
  been
• 4:36
  down
• 4:36
  in
• 4:36
  these
• 4:36
  homes
• 4:37
  before
• 4:37
  and
• 4:38
  I
• 4:38
  could
• 4:38
  get
• 4:38
  down
• 4:38
  there
• 4:39
  with
• 4:39
  a
• 4:40
  ballpoint
• 4:40
  pen
• 4:41
  and
• 4:41
  if
• 4:41
  I
• 4:41
  took
• 4:42
  15
• 4:42
  minutes,
• 4:43
  I
• 4:43
  could
• 4:43
  dig
• 4:43
  through
• 4:43
  to
• 4:44
  the
• 4:44
  exterior
• 4:44
  of
• 4:44
  the
• 4:44
  house.
• 4:45
  It's
• 4:45
  shocking.
• 4:46
  With
• 4:46
  what
• 4:46
  One
• 4:47
  of
• 4:47
  the
• 4:47
  biggest
• 4:47
  myths
• 4:48
  out
• 4:48
  there
• 4:48
  that
• 4:48
  I
• 4:48
  think
• 4:48
  we
• 4:48
  see
• 4:49
  is
• 4:49
  people
• 4:49
  go,
• 4:49
  dirt's
• 4:50
  dirt.
• 4:50
  Doesn't
• 4:51
  matter.
• 4:51
  Right.
• 4:51
  Let's
• 4:52
  talk
• 4:52
  about.
• 4:53
  It's
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  huge
• 4:54
  issue.
• 4:54
  It's
• 4:55
  a
• 4:55
  lot
• 4:55
  more
• 4:55
  complicated
• 4:56
  than
• 4:56
  people
• 4:56
  realize
• 4:57
  because
• 4:58
  dirt
• 4:58
  gets
• 4:58
  deposited
• 4:59
  in
• 4:59
  layers.
• 5:00
  And
• 5:00
  these
• 5:00
  layers,
• 5:01
  there
• 5:01
  could
• 5:01
  be
• 5:02
  10,
• 5:02
  20,
• 5:02
  30
• 5:03
  layers
• 5:03
  within
• 5:03
  a
• 5:03
  30
• 5:04
  foot
• 5:04
  depth.
• 5:05
  And
• 5:05
  each
• 5:05
  of
• 5:05
  them
• 5:05
  is
• 5:06
  a
• 5:06
  different
• 5:06
  mineral
• 5:06
  content,
• 5:07
  different
• 5:07
  affinities
• 5:08
  for
• 5:08
  water,
• 5:08
  different
• 5:08
  densities,
• 5:09
  different
• 5:09
  reactions
• 5:10
  to
• 5:10
  water.
• 5:11
  And
• 5:12
  they're
• 5:12
  not
• 5:12
  even
• 5:12
  layers.
• 5:13
  Some
• 5:13
  are
• 5:13
  fat,
• 5:14
  some
• 5:14
  are
• 5:14
  skinny,
• 5:14
  they
• 5:15
  move,
• 5:15
  they
• 5:15
  die
• 5:16
  out.
• 5:16
  There's
• 5:16
  rocks.
• 5:17
  It's
• 5:17
  very
• 5:17
  complicated.
• 5:18
  And
• 5:19
  there's
• 5:19
  a
• 5:19
  lot
• 5:19
  of
• 5:19
  things
• 5:19
  going
• 5:20
  on
• 5:20
  in
• 5:20
  each
• 5:20
  of
• 5:20
  these
• 5:21
  layers
• 5:21
  all
• 5:21
  at
• 5:21
  the
• 5:22
  same
• 5:22
  time.
• 5:23
  So
• 5:23
  that's
• 5:23
  why
• 5:24
  you
• 5:24
  really
• 5:24
  need
• 5:24
  geotechnical
• 5:25
  engineers.
• 5:25
  They
• 5:26
  understand
• 5:26
  this
• 5:26
  better
• 5:26
  than
• 5:27
  anybody
• 5:27
  else.
• 5:28
  Well,
• 5:28
  I
• 5:28
  think
• 5:28
  one
• 5:28
  of
• 5:28
  the
• 5:29
  worst
• 5:29
  things
• 5:29
  is
• 5:29
  if
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  have
• 5:30
  a
• 5:30
  fat
• 5:30
  layer
• 5:30
  of
• 5:30
  clay
• 5:31
  on
• 5:31
  one
• 5:31
  side
• 5:31
  of
• 5:31
  the
• 5:31
  House
• 5:32
  and
• 5:32
  not
• 5:32
  on
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  other
• 5:33
  side.
• 5:33
  Right.
• 5:34
  Got
• 5:34
  that
• 5:34
  ground
• 5:34
  expanding
• 5:35
  and
• 5:35
  contracting
• 5:36
  at
• 5:37
  way
• 5:37
  two
• 5:37
  different
• 5:37
  rates,
• 5:38
  which
• 5:39
  leads
• 5:39
  to
• 5:39
  foundation
• 5:39
  issues.
• 5:40
  Yep,
• 5:40
  that's
• 5:41
  right.
• 5:41
  Clays
• 5:41
  can
• 5:42
  be
• 5:42
  a
• 5:42
  very
• 5:42
  problematic
• 5:43
  source
• 5:44
  of
• 5:44
  problems.
• 5:45
  And
• 5:45
  as
• 5:45
  you
• 5:45
  mentioned,
• 5:46
  they.
• 5:46
  They
• 5:46
  can
• 5:47
  contract
• 5:47
  and
• 5:47
  expand.
• 5:48
  If
• 5:48
  you
• 5:48
  have
• 5:48
  wet
• 5:49
  and
• 5:49
  dry
• 5:49
  seasons,
• 5:51
  the
• 5:51
  key
• 5:51
  is
• 5:51
  changes
• 5:52
  in
• 5:52
  moisture.
• 5:53
  If
• 5:53
  you
• 5:53
  see
• 5:53
  a
• 5:53
  change
• 5:54
  in
• 5:54
  moisture,
• 5:54
  you're
• 5:55
  going
• 5:55
  to
• 5:55
  have
• 5:55
  problems.
• 5:55
  If
• 5:55
  you
• 5:56
  have
• 5:56
  clays,
• 5:56
  it's
• 5:57
  one
• 5:57
  of.
• 5:57
  The
• 5:57
  things
• 5:57
  that
• 5:57
  happens
• 5:57
  around
• 5:58
  my
• 5:58
  area
• 5:58
  in
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  summertime
• 5:59
  here
• 5:59
  we
• 5:59
  have,
• 5:59
  we
• 6:00
  are
• 6:00
  very
• 6:00
  much
• 6:01
  a
• 6:01
  wet
• 6:01
  and
• 6:01
  dry
• 6:02
  season.
• 6:02
  Summertime,
• 6:03
  it's
• 6:03
  totally
• 6:04
  dry.
• 6:04
  We
• 6:04
  don't
• 6:04
  get
• 6:04
  rain
• 6:05
  and
• 6:05
  people's
• 6:06
  yards.
• 6:06
  You'll
• 6:06
  see
• 6:06
  the
• 6:06
  cracks
• 6:07
  in
• 6:07
  the
• 6:07
  clay.
• 6:07
  It
• 6:07
  looks
• 6:08
  like
• 6:08
  a
• 6:08
  dry
• 6:08
  lake
• 6:09
  bed.
• 6:09
  Yep.
• 6:10
  So
• 6:10
  I've
• 6:10
  been
• 6:10
  out
• 6:10
  with
• 6:10
  engineers
• 6:11
  and
• 6:11
  said,
• 6:11
  hey,
• 6:11
  can
• 6:12
  you
• 6:12
  make
• 6:12
  sure
• 6:12
  and
• 6:12
  water
• 6:13
  your
• 6:13
  flower
• 6:13
  beds
• 6:13
  around
• 6:14
  the
• 6:14
  outside
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  your
• 6:14
  lawn?
• 6:15
  It's
• 6:15
  probably
• 6:16
  going
• 6:16
  to
• 6:16
  save
• 6:16
  your
• 6:16
  foundation
• 6:17
  or
• 6:17
  at
• 6:17
  least
• 6:18
  help
• 6:18
  it.
• 6:19
  You
• 6:19
  know,
• 6:19
  that's
• 6:19
  interesting
• 6:19
  because
• 6:20
  that's
• 6:20
  what
• 6:20
  they
• 6:20
  do
• 6:20
  in
• 6:21
  Houston
• 6:21
  now
• 6:22
  in
• 6:22
  Phoenix,
• 6:23
  where
• 6:23
  it's
• 6:23
  a
• 6:23
  desert,
• 6:23
  you
• 6:24
  would
• 6:24
  never
• 6:24
  do
• 6:24
  that.
• 6:25
  So
• 6:25
  you
• 6:26
  have
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  talk
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  engineers
• 6:27
  and
• 6:28
  see
• 6:28
  what
• 6:28
  their
• 6:29
  recommendations
• 6:29
  are
• 6:30
  for
• 6:31
  that,
• 6:31
  because
• 6:32
  regionally
• 6:32
  they're
• 6:33
  going
• 6:33
  to
• 6:33
  change
• 6:33
  depending
• 6:34
  on
• 6:34
  annual
• 6:35
  rainfall,
• 6:36
  depending
• 6:36
  on
• 6:36
  soil
• 6:37
  conditions,
• 6:37
  depending
• 6:38
  on
• 6:38
  a
• 6:38
  lot
• 6:38
  of
• 6:38
  things.
• 6:39
  And
• 6:40
  you
• 6:40
  can
• 6:40
  save
• 6:40
  yourself
• 6:40
  a
• 6:41
  lot
• 6:41
  of
• 6:41
  trouble
• 6:41
  just
• 6:41
  with
• 6:42
  a
• 6:42
  smart
• 6:43
  conversation
• 6:43
  with
• 6:44
  a
• 6:44
  good
• 6:44
  geotechnical
• 6:45
  engineer
• 6:45
  and
• 6:45
  listen
• 6:46
  to
• 6:46
  their
• 6:46
  recommendations.
• 6:47
  That
• 6:48
  has
• 6:48
  always
• 6:48
  been
• 6:48
  my
• 6:49
  first
• 6:49
  thing.
• 6:49
  If
• 6:50
  you
• 6:50
  notice
• 6:50
  cracks
• 6:50
  in
• 6:51
  your
• 6:51
  foundation,
• 6:51
  cracks
• 6:52
  in
• 6:52
  the
• 6:53
  drywall,
• 6:53
  doors
• 6:54
  and
• 6:54
  stuff
• 6:54
  not
• 6:55
  opening,
• 6:55
  I've
• 6:56
  always
• 6:56
  said
• 6:56
  before,
• 6:56
  you
• 6:57
  call
• 6:58
  that
• 6:58
  foundation
• 6:58
  company,
• 6:59
  call
• 6:59
  the
• 6:59
  engineer
• 7:00
  first
• 7:00
  and
• 7:00
  get
• 7:00
  their
• 7:00
  recommendations.
• 7:01
  What
• 7:01
  do
• 7:01
  you
• 7:01
  think
• 7:02
  about
• 7:02
  that?
• 7:02
  That
• 7:02
  is
• 7:02
  my
• 7:02
  number
• 7:03
  one
• 7:03
  recommendation,
• 7:04
  and
• 7:04
  I'll
• 7:04
  tell
• 7:04
  you
• 7:04
  why.
• 7:05
  There's
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  bunch
• 7:05
  of
• 7:05
  reasons.
• 7:06
  But
• 7:06
  let's
• 7:06
  just
• 7:07
  take
• 7:07
  Susie's
• 7:08
  Q
• 7:08
  homeowner.
• 7:08
  She
• 7:09
  calls
• 7:09
  out
• 7:09
  three
• 7:09
  contractors.
• 7:10
  One
• 7:10
  contractor
• 7:11
  says,
• 7:11
  oh,
• 7:11
  you
• 7:11
  need
• 7:11
  15
• 7:12
  peers
• 7:12
  on
• 7:12
  this
• 7:12
  side
• 7:13
  of
• 7:13
  the
• 7:13
  house.
• 7:13
  The
• 7:13
  other
• 7:13
  one
• 7:13
  says
• 7:14
  you
• 7:14
  need,
• 7:14
  oh,
• 7:14
  no,
• 7:14
  you
• 7:14
  need
• 7:14
  12
• 7:14
  on
• 7:15
  this
• 7:15
  side
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  the
• 7:15
  house.
• 7:15
  And
• 7:16
  the
• 7:16
  other
• 7:16
  one
• 7:16
  says,
• 7:16
  no,
• 7:16
  you
• 7:17
  need
• 7:17
  25
• 7:17
  all
• 7:17
  the
• 7:18
  way
• 7:18
  around.
• 7:18
  Now,
• 7:18
  as
• 7:19
  a
• 7:19
  homeowner,
• 7:20
  how
• 7:20
  would
• 7:21
  you
• 7:21
  know?
• 7:21
  You
• 7:21
  don't.
• 7:22
  You're
• 7:22
  not
• 7:22
  a
• 7:22
  professional.
• 7:22
  You
• 7:23
  have
• 7:23
  no
• 7:23
  idea.
• 7:24
  And
• 7:25
  that's
• 7:25
  what
• 7:25
  these
• 7:26
  companies
• 7:26
  bank
• 7:26
  on.
• 7:27
  They're
• 7:27
  banking
• 7:27
  on
• 7:28
  the
• 7:28
  fact
• 7:28
  that
• 7:28
  their
• 7:28
  proposal
• 7:29
  is
• 7:29
  different
• 7:30
  so
• 7:30
  they
• 7:30
  don't
• 7:30
  have
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  compare
• 7:31
  apples
• 7:31
  to
• 7:31
  apples.
• 7:32
  And
• 7:32
  so
• 7:32
  then
• 7:33
  in
• 7:33
  the
• 7:33
  end,
• 7:33
  you
• 7:34
  just
• 7:34
  end
• 7:34
  up
• 7:34
  going
• 7:35
  with
• 7:35
  the
• 7:35
  guy
• 7:35
  you're
• 7:35
  most
• 7:35
  comfortable
• 7:36
  with,
• 7:36
  which
• 7:36
  is
• 7:36
  the
• 7:37
  best
• 7:37
  salesman,
• 7:38
  which
• 7:38
  probably
• 7:38
  is
• 7:39
  the
• 7:39
  least
• 7:39
  qualified
• 7:40
  to
• 7:40
  act
• 7:40
  as
• 7:40
  an
• 7:41
  engineer,
• 7:41
  because
• 7:41
  that's
• 7:41
  what
• 7:42
  these
• 7:42
  sales
• 7:42
  consultants
• 7:43
  are
• 7:43
  doing.
• 7:43
  They're
• 7:44
  doing
• 7:44
  geotechnical
• 7:45
  and
• 7:45
  structural
• 7:45
  engineering
• 7:46
  without
• 7:46
  a
• 7:46
  license,
• 7:47
  basically,
• 7:48
  yeah.
• 7:48
  And
• 7:48
  if
• 7:48
  you've
• 7:48
  got
• 7:49
  a
• 7:49
  clay
• 7:49
  soil
• 7:49
  issue,
• 7:50
  maybe
• 7:50
  those
• 7:50
  piles
• 7:51
  are
• 7:51
  not
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  answer.
• 7:52
  Right.
• 7:53
  It
• 7:53
  could
• 7:53
  be
• 7:53
  a
• 7:53
  heat
• 7:54
  problem
• 7:54
  and
• 7:54
  it
• 7:55
  may
• 7:55
  not
• 7:55
  need
• 7:55
  underpinning
• 7:56
  at
• 7:56
  all.
• 7:57
  You
• 7:57
  may
• 7:57
  just
• 7:57
  need
• 7:57
  to
• 7:57
  fix
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  drainage.
• 7:58
  There's
• 7:58
  lots
• 7:59
  of
• 7:59
  things.
• 7:59
  I
• 7:59
  need
• 7:59
  to
• 8:00
  monitor
• 8:00
  it.
• 8:00
  One
• 8:00
  of
• 8:00
  the,
• 8:01
  one
• 8:01
  of
• 8:01
  the
• 8:01
  myths
• 8:01
  is,
• 8:01
  ah,
• 8:02
  we
• 8:02
  got
• 8:02
  cracks,
• 8:02
  we
• 8:02
  got
• 8:02
  to
• 8:03
  underpin
• 8:03
  it
• 8:03
  right
• 8:03
  away.
• 8:03
  No,
• 8:04
  that's
• 8:04
  not
• 8:04
  true.
• 8:05
  You
• 8:05
  can
• 8:05
  monitor
• 8:05
  it.
• 8:06
  Get
• 8:06
  a
• 8:06
  good
• 8:06
  geotechnical
• 8:07
  engineer,
• 8:07
  a
• 8:07
  forensic
• 8:08
  engineer
• 8:08
  out
• 8:08
  there.
• 8:09
  He
• 8:09
  may
• 8:10
  say,
• 8:10
  hey,
• 8:11
  yeah,
• 8:11
  you've
• 8:11
  got
• 8:11
  some
• 8:12
  problems,
• 8:12
  but
• 8:12
  it's
• 8:12
  not
• 8:13
  the
• 8:13
  end
• 8:13
  of
• 8:13
  the
• 8:13
  world.
• 8:14
  Or
• 8:14
  hey,
• 8:15
  let's
• 8:15
  monitor
• 8:15
  it
• 8:15
  for
• 8:16
  six
• 8:16
  months
• 8:16
  to
• 8:16
  a
• 8:17
  year
• 8:17
  and
• 8:17
  see
• 8:17
  how
• 8:17
  much
• 8:17
  it's
• 8:18
  still
• 8:18
  moving.
• 8:18
  It
• 8:18
  may
• 8:18
  be
• 8:18
  all
• 8:19
  done
• 8:19
  moving.
• 8:20
  Those
• 8:20
  are
• 8:20
  the
• 8:20
  kinds
• 8:20
  of
• 8:21
  things
• 8:21
  that
• 8:21
  you're
• 8:21
  going
• 8:21
  to
• 8:21
  get
• 8:21
  from
• 8:22
  engineers.
• 8:22
  Now,
• 8:23
  engineer
• 8:23
  is
• 8:23
  not
• 8:24
  going
• 8:24
  to
• 8:24
  be
• 8:24
  free.
• 8:25
  Foundation
• 8:25
  repair
• 8:26
  companies,
• 8:26
  they're
• 8:26
  going
• 8:26
  to
• 8:26
  send
• 8:27
  out
• 8:27
  their
• 8:28
  analysis,
• 8:28
  which
• 8:29
  is
• 8:29
  basically
• 8:29
  a
• 8:29
  sales
• 8:30
  pitch
• 8:30
  disguised
• 8:31
  as
• 8:31
  analysis
• 8:31
  for
• 8:32
  free.
• 8:32
  But
• 8:33
  look
• 8:33
  at
• 8:33
  it
• 8:33
  this
• 8:33
  way.
• 8:34
  Would
• 8:34
  you
• 8:34
  go
• 8:34
  to
• 8:34
  a
• 8:34
  doctor
• 8:35
  and
• 8:35
  pay
• 8:35
  good
• 8:36
  money
• 8:36
  if
• 8:36
  you
• 8:36
  had
• 8:36
  a
• 8:36
  serious
• 8:37
  problem,
• 8:37
  or
• 8:38
  would
• 8:38
  you
• 8:38
  go
• 8:38
  for
• 8:38
  free
• 8:38
  to
• 8:39
  a
• 8:39
  pharmaceutical
• 8:39
  rep?
• 8:40
  That's
• 8:40
  about
• 8:41
  what
• 8:41
  it
• 8:41
  turns
• 8:41
  into.
• 8:42
  You're
• 8:42
  right.
• 8:42
  And
• 8:43
  you
• 8:43
  know
• 8:43
  what?
• 8:43
  If
• 8:44
  you
• 8:44
  get
• 8:44
  a
• 8:44
  good
• 8:44
  geotechnical
• 8:45
  engineer
• 8:45
  and
• 8:46
  he
• 8:46
  says,
• 8:46
  okay,
• 8:47
  yeah,
• 8:47
  it's
• 8:48
  still
• 8:48
  moving,
• 8:48
  yeah,
• 8:48
  we
• 8:49
  need
• 8:49
  to
• 8:49
  fix
• 8:49
  it,
• 8:49
  we
• 8:49
  need
• 8:50
  to
• 8:50
  underpin
• 8:50
  it.
• 8:51
  Now
• 8:51
  he'll
• 8:52
  say,
• 8:52
  he'll
• 8:52
  give
• 8:53
  you
• 8:53
  a
• 8:53
  plan
• 8:53
  that
• 8:53
  says,
• 8:54
  put
• 8:54
  in
• 8:55
  13
• 8:55
  peers
• 8:56
  right
• 8:56
  here.
• 8:57
  No
• 8:57
  more,
• 8:57
  no
• 8:57
  less.
• 8:58
  Well,
• 8:58
  now,
• 8:58
  that's
• 8:59
  right.
• 8:59
  And
• 9:00
  you
• 9:00
  can
• 9:00
  go
• 9:00
  get
• 9:00
  that
• 9:00
  three
• 9:01
  bids.
• 9:01
  And
• 9:02
  guess
• 9:02
  what?
• 9:02
  All
• 9:02
  those
• 9:02
  guys
• 9:03
  are
• 9:03
  going
• 9:03
  to
• 9:03
  sharpen
• 9:03
  their
• 9:03
  pencil
• 9:04
  because
• 9:04
  they
• 9:04
  know
• 9:04
  they're
• 9:04
  bidding
• 9:05
  apples
• 9:05
  to
• 9:05
  apples.
• 9:06
  You're
• 9:06
  probably
• 9:06
  going
• 9:07
  to
• 9:07
  save
• 9:07
  the
• 9:07
  money
• 9:07
  that
• 9:08
  you
• 9:08
  spent
• 9:08
  and
• 9:08
  more
• 9:09
  with
• 9:10
  the
• 9:10
  engineer.
• 9:11
  And
• 9:11
  the
• 9:11
  beautiful
• 9:12
  thing
• 9:12
  is,
• 9:12
  if
• 9:12
  you
• 9:13
  go
• 9:13
  to
• 9:13
  sell
• 9:13
  that
• 9:13
  house
• 9:13
  one
• 9:14
  day,
• 9:14
  you
• 9:14
  go,
• 9:14
  here's
• 9:15
  the
• 9:15
  engineer's
• 9:15
  report
• 9:16
  stamped,
• 9:17
  and
• 9:17
  here's
• 9:18
  the
• 9:18
  fix
• 9:18
  that
• 9:18
  I
• 9:19
  had
• 9:19
  done.
• 9:19
  It
• 9:19
  is
• 9:19
  good
• 9:20
  to
• 9:20
  gold
• 9:21
  versus
• 9:21
  the
• 9:22
  foundation
• 9:22
  salesperson
• 9:23
  talked
• 9:23
  me
• 9:24
  into
• 9:24
  doing.
• 9:24
  Well.
• 9:25
  And
• 9:25
  let
• 9:25
  me
• 9:25
  tell
• 9:25
  you,
• 9:26
  all
• 9:26
  these
• 9:26
  foundation
• 9:27
  repair
• 9:27
  companies,
• 9:27
  they
• 9:28
  give
• 9:28
  a
• 9:28
  lifetime
• 9:28
  warranty,
• 9:29
  right?
• 9:29
  That's
• 9:30
  not
• 9:30
  worth
• 9:30
  the
• 9:30
  paper
• 9:30
  it's
• 9:31
  written
• 9:31
  on.
• 9:31
  There
• 9:32
  are
• 9:32
  so
• 9:32
  many
• 9:32
  get
• 9:33
  out
• 9:33
  of
• 9:33
  jail
• 9:33
  free
• 9:33
  cards
• 9:34
  in
• 9:34
  that
• 9:34
  thing.
• 9:34
  I'll
• 9:34
  give
• 9:35
  you
• 9:35
  an
• 9:35
  example.
• 9:36
  So
• 9:36
  five
• 9:36
  years
• 9:37
  later,
• 9:37
  the
• 9:37
  homeowner
• 9:38
  calls
• 9:38
  the
• 9:38
  contractor
• 9:39
  and
• 9:39
  says,
• 9:39
  hello,
• 9:40
  yeah,
• 9:40
  my
• 9:41
  house
• 9:41
  is
• 9:41
  cracking
• 9:41
  all
• 9:42
  up
• 9:42
  again.
• 9:42
  Your
• 9:42
  foundation
• 9:43
  fix
• 9:43
  isn't
• 9:43
  working.
• 9:43
  Come
• 9:44
  out
• 9:44
  here
• 9:44
  and
• 9:44
  honor
• 9:44
  your
• 9:45
  lifetime
• 9:45
  warranty.
• 9:46
  So
• 9:46
  then
• 9:46
  the
• 9:46
  foundation
• 9:47
  repair
• 9:47
  salesman
• 9:48
  or
• 9:48
  contractor
• 9:49
  sends
• 9:49
  out
• 9:49
  a
• 9:50
  really
• 9:50
  experienced
• 9:51
  guy
• 9:51
  and
• 9:51
  he
• 9:52
  says,
• 9:52
  oh,
• 9:53
  well,
• 9:53
  this
• 9:53
  problem
• 9:54
  is
• 9:54
  from
• 9:54
  Heave.
• 9:55
  And
• 9:55

• 9:56
  says
• 9:56
  right
• 9:56
  here
• 9:56
  in
• 9:56
  our
• 9:56

  our
• 9:57
  peers
• 9:58

  fix
• 9:58
  Heave.
• 9:59
  So,

  You're

  a

  professional

  no

  right

  something
• 14:55
  wrong,

  good.
• 16:03
  That
• 16:04
  is
• 16:04
  absolutely
• 16:05
  not
• 16:05
  true.
• 16:05
  And
• 16:05
  I'll
• 16:05
  tell
• 16:06
  you
• 16:06
  why.
• 16:07
  Because
• 16:07
  an
• 16:07
  engineer
• 16:08
  cannot
• 16:09
  put
• 16:09
  his
• 16:09
  seal
• 16:09
  to
• 16:10
  anything
• 16:10
  that
• 16:10
  he
• 16:10
  did
• 16:11
  not
• 16:11
  gather
• 16:11
  the
• 16:11
  data
• 16:11
  for
• 16:12
  or
• 16:13
  somebody
• 16:13
  under
• 16:13
  his
• 16:14
  direct
• 16:14
  employee
• 16:15
  gathered
• 16:15
  the
• 16:15
  data
• 16:15
  for,
• 16:16
  which
• 16:16
  means
• 16:16
  if
• 16:17
  somebody
• 16:17
  from
• 16:17
  another
• 16:17
  company
• 16:18
  gathered
• 16:18
  the
• 16:18
  data,
• 16:19
  the
• 16:19
  engineer
• 16:19
  cannot
• 16:20
  put
• 16:20
  his
• 16:20
  seal
• 16:20
  to
• 16:20
  it.
• 16:21
  So,
• 16:21
  in
• 16:21
  fact,
• 16:22
  when
• 16:22
  you
• 16:22
  go
• 16:23
  to
• 16:23
  pull
• 16:23
  permits,
• 16:23
  the
• 16:24
  only
• 16:24
  requirement
• 16:25
  that
• 16:25
  the
• 16:25
  city
• 16:25
  has
• 16:26
  for
• 16:26
  the
• 16:27
  engineer
• 16:27
  to
• 16:27
  put
• 16:27
  his
• 16:27
  seal
• 16:28
  to
• 16:28
  is
• 16:29
  a
• 16:29
  spacing
• 16:29
  calculation.
• 16:30
  For
• 16:30
  piers,
• 16:31
  all
• 16:31
  they
• 16:31
  want
• 16:31
  to
• 16:31
  do
• 16:31
  is
• 16:31
  make
• 16:32
  sure
• 16:32
  you're
• 16:32
  not
• 16:32
  putting
• 16:32
  them
• 16:32
  too
• 16:33
  far
• 16:33
  apart
• 16:33
  so
• 16:33
  that
• 16:33
  the
• 16:34
  house
• 16:34
  droops
• 16:34
  between
• 16:34
  the
• 16:35
  piers.
• 16:35
  It's
• 16:35
  not
• 16:36
  that
• 16:36
  hard
• 16:36
  to
• 16:36
  do.
• 16:37
  A
• 16:37
  monkey
• 16:37
  could
• 16:37
  do
• 16:37
  that
• 16:38
  calculation.
• 16:39
  It's
• 16:39
  super
• 16:39
  easy.
• 16:40
  Most
• 16:40
  of
• 16:40
  the
• 16:40
  time,
• 16:40
  it's
• 16:40
  either
• 16:41
  6ft
• 16:41
  or
• 16:41
  8ft,
• 16:42
  unless
• 16:42
  it's
• 16:42
  a
• 16:42
  really
• 16:42
  old
• 16:43
  house
• 16:43
  without
• 16:43
  rebar
• 16:44
  in
• 16:44
  the
• 16:44
  footings
• 16:44
  or
• 16:44
  something.
• 16:45
  But
• 16:45
  the
• 16:45
  fact
• 16:46
  of
• 16:46
  the
• 16:46
  matter
• 16:46
  is,
• 16:47
  you
• 16:47
  could
• 16:47
  have
• 16:48
  peers
• 16:48
  on
• 16:49
  the
• 16:49
  wrong
• 16:49
  side
• 16:49
  of
• 16:49
  the
• 16:49
  house.
• 16:50
  You
• 16:50
  could
• 16:50
  have
• 16:50
  too
• 16:50
  many
• 16:50
  peers.
• 16:51
  You
• 16:51
  could
• 16:51
  have
• 16:51
  peers
• 16:52
  that
• 16:52
  aren't
• 16:52
  needed
• 16:52
  at
• 16:53
  all.
• 16:53
  There's
• 16:54
  nothing
• 16:54
  in
• 16:54
  the
• 16:54
  Permian
• 16:55
  process
• 16:55
  that
• 16:55
  corrects
• 16:56
  for
• 16:56
  any
• 16:56
  of
• 16:56
  those
• 16:56
  errors
• 16:57
  at
• 16:57
  all.
• 16:57
  And
• 16:57
  the
• 16:57
  engineer
• 16:58
  will
• 16:58
  not
• 16:59
  be
• 16:59
  able
• 16:59
  to
• 16:59
  fix
• 16:59
  any
• 16:59
  of
• 17:00
  those
• 17:00
  because
• 17:00
  he
• 17:00
  did
• 17:01
  not
• 17:01
  gather
• 17:01
  the
• 17:01
  data,
• 17:02
  he
• 17:02
  didn't
• 17:02
  understand
• 17:03
  the
• 17:03
  problem,
• 17:03
  and
• 17:04
  he
• 17:04
  didn't
• 17:04
  design
• 17:04
  the
• 17:05
  fix
• 17:05
  to
• 17:05
  the
• 17:05
  problem.
• 17:06
  Let
• 17:06
  me
• 17:06
  give
• 17:07
  you
• 17:07
  an
• 17:07
  example.
• 17:07
  I
• 17:08
  had
• 17:08
  a
• 17:08
  homeowner
• 17:08
  up
• 17:08
  here
• 17:09
  in
• 17:09
  Show
• 17:09
  Low
• 17:10
  who
• 17:10
  they
• 17:11
  had
• 17:11
  a
• 17:11
  block
• 17:11
  stem
• 17:12
  wall
• 17:12
  that
• 17:12
  never
• 17:13
  got
• 17:13
  grouted,
• 17:15
  and
• 17:15
  it
• 17:15
  had
• 17:16
  moved
• 17:17
  out
• 17:17
  from
• 17:17
  the
• 17:17
  house,
• 17:18
  and
• 17:18
  the
• 17:19
  house
• 17:19
  was
• 17:19
  sitting
• 17:19
  on,
• 17:19
  like,
• 17:20
  the.
• 17:20
  The
• 17:20
  last
• 17:21
  inch
• 17:21
  and
• 17:21
  a
• 17:21
  half
• 17:21
  of
• 17:22
  block.
• 17:22
  And
• 17:23
  so
• 17:23
  the
• 17:23
  foundation
• 17:24
  company
• 17:24
  told
• 17:24
  her,
• 17:25
  oh,
• 17:25
  yeah,
• 17:25
  when
• 17:25
  we
• 17:26
  underpinned
• 17:26
  this,
• 17:26
  we're
• 17:26
  going
• 17:27
  to
• 17:27
  rotate
• 17:27
  that
• 17:27
  right
• 17:27
  back
• 17:28
  into
• 17:28
  place.
• 17:29
  Well,
• 17:29
  they
• 17:29
  underpinned
• 17:30
  it,
• 17:30
  and
• 17:31
  it
• 17:31
  didn't
• 17:31
  rotate
• 17:32
  back
• 17:32
  into
• 17:32
  place.
• 17:33
  And
• 17:33
  so
• 17:33
  then
• 17:33
  they.
• 17:33
  And
• 17:34
  they
• 17:34
  pulled
• 17:34
  a
• 17:34
  permit.
• 17:35
  They
• 17:35
  had
• 17:35
  an
• 17:35
  engineer
• 17:36
  put
• 17:36
  a
• 17:36
  seal
• 17:36
  on
• 17:36
  the
• 17:37
  drawings,
• 17:38
  the
• 17:38
  whole
• 17:38
  ball
• 17:39
  of
• 17:39
  wax.
• 17:39
  But
• 17:39
  when
• 17:40
  she
• 17:40
  said,
• 17:40
  hey,
• 17:41
  the
• 17:41
  reason
• 17:41
  I
• 17:42
  called
• 17:42
  you
• 17:42
  is
• 17:42
  for
• 17:43
  this,
• 17:43
  can
• 17:43
  you.
• 17:43
  What
• 17:44
  happened?
• 17:44
  And
• 17:44
  they're
• 17:45
  like,
• 17:45
  well,
• 17:45
  if
• 17:45
  you
• 17:46
  really
• 17:46
  want
• 17:46
  that
• 17:46
  fixed,
• 17:47
  we're
• 17:47
  going
• 17:47
  to
• 17:47
  have
• 17:47
  to
• 17:48
  hire
• 17:48
  a
• 17:48
  mason
• 17:49
  contractor.
• 17:50
  It's
• 17:50
  going
• 17:50
  to
• 17:50
  cost
• 17:51
  you
• 17:51
  another
• 17:51
  $27,000.
• 17:52
  And
• 17:52
  she's.
• 17:53
  So
• 17:53
  I
• 17:54
  called
• 17:54
  the
• 17:54
  engineer,
• 17:54
  I
• 17:55
  said,
• 17:55
  hey,
• 17:55
  so
• 17:56
  what's
• 17:56
  the
• 17:56
  deal?
• 17:56
  How
• 17:56
  come
• 17:56
  you
• 17:57
  didn't
• 17:57
  address
• 17:57
  this
• 17:57
  problem?
• 17:58
  And
• 17:58
  he's.
• 17:58
  I
• 17:58
  didn't
• 17:58
  even
• 17:59
  know
• 17:59
  about
• 17:59
  that
• 17:59
  problem.
• 18:00
  They
• 18:00
  just
• 18:00
  told
• 18:00
  me
• 18:00
  they
• 18:01
  wanted
• 18:01
  peers
• 18:01
  at
• 18:01
  a
• 18:01
  certain
• 18:02
  spot,
• 18:02
  and
• 18:02
  I
• 18:02
  did
• 18:02
  a
• 18:03
  spacing
• 18:03
  calc,
• 18:03
  and
• 18:04
  that's
• 18:04
  exactly
• 18:04
  what
• 18:05
  happens.
• 18:05
  Ah,
• 18:06
  that's
• 18:07
  brutal.
• 18:07
  And
• 18:07
  I
• 18:07
  tell
• 18:07
  you
• 18:08
  what,
• 18:08
  I
• 18:08
  have
• 18:08
  had
• 18:08
  more
• 18:09
  issues,
• 18:09
  especially
• 18:10
  in
• 18:10
  my
• 18:10
  area
• 18:10
  where
• 18:11
  it's
• 18:11
  wet
• 18:11
  with
• 18:12
  CMU
• 18:12
  block
• 18:12
  foundations
• 18:13
  like
• 18:13
  that,
• 18:13
  concrete
• 18:14
  block
• 18:14
  foundations.
• 18:15
  Because
• 18:16
  many
• 18:16
  times
• 18:16
  here
• 18:16
  in
• 18:17
  our
• 18:17
  area,
• 18:17
  when
• 18:17
  they
• 18:17
  built
• 18:18
  these
• 18:18
  homes,
• 18:18
  especially
• 18:19
  20,
• 18:19
  30,
• 18:20
  40,
• 18:20
  50
• 18:20
  years
• 18:20
  ago,
• 18:21
  whatever
• 18:21
  they
• 18:21
  were,
• 18:22
  the
• 18:22
  inside
• 18:22
  of
• 18:22
  those
• 18:22
  hollow
• 18:23
  blocks
• 18:23
  didn't
• 18:23
  get
• 18:24
  filled
• 18:24
  up.
• 18:24
  And
• 18:24
  so
• 18:24
  you
• 18:25
  can
• 18:25
  have
• 18:25
  a
• 18:25
  leak
• 18:25
  someplace
• 18:26
  on
• 18:26
  the
• 18:26
  other
• 18:26
  side
• 18:27
  of
• 18:27
  the
• 18:27
  house.
• 18:27
  Yep.
• 18:28
  And
• 18:28
  it
• 18:28
  just
• 18:29
  leaks
• 18:29
  through
• 18:29
  and
• 18:30
  comes
• 18:30
  out
• 18:30
  on
• 18:30
  the
• 18:30
  other
• 18:30
  side
• 18:31
  of
• 18:31
  the
• 18:31
  house
• 18:31
  over
• 18:31
  there.
• 18:32
  The
• 18:32
  only
• 18:33
  way
• 18:33
  you
• 18:33
  can
• 18:33
  waterproof
• 18:34
  that
• 18:34
  foundation
• 18:35
  is
• 18:35
  from
• 18:35
  the
• 18:35
  outside,
• 18:36
  because
• 18:36
  otherwise
• 18:37
  you're
• 18:37
  chasing
• 18:37
  it
• 18:38
  forever.
• 18:38
  It's.
• 18:38
  It's
• 18:38
  impossible.
• 18:39
  Right,
• 18:40
  I
• 18:40
  agree.
• 18:41
  It's
• 18:41
  just
• 18:41
  I.
• 18:41
  Every
• 18:42
  time
• 18:42
  I
• 18:42
  see
• 18:42
  those,
• 18:42
  I
• 18:43
  go,
• 18:43
  oh,
• 18:43
  man,
• 18:44
  if
• 18:44
  that
• 18:44
  thing
• 18:45
  starts
• 18:45
  leaking,
• 18:46
  it's
• 18:46
  an
• 18:46
  excavation
• 18:47
  project.
• 18:48
  It
• 18:48
  is
• 18:48
  a
• 18:48
  problem.
• 18:49
  So
• 18:49
  what
• 18:50
  do
• 18:50
  you
• 18:50
  see
• 18:50
  out
• 18:50
  there?
• 18:51
  When.
• 18:51
  What.
• 18:51
  What's
• 18:52
  the
• 18:52
  best
• 18:53
  mode
• 18:53
  for
• 18:53
  people
• 18:54
  to
• 18:54
  go
• 18:54
  down
• 18:54
  when
• 18:55
  they
• 18:55
  go,
• 18:55
  okay,
• 18:55
  I
• 18:55
  think
• 18:56
  I
• 18:56
  have
• 18:56
  a
• 18:56
  problem.
• 18:57
  Whether
• 18:57
  it's
• 18:58
  a
• 18:58
  house
• 18:58
  sinking
• 18:59
  or
• 19:00
  appears
• 19:00
  to
• 19:00
  be
• 19:00
  sinking
• 19:02
  or
• 19:03
  any
• 19:03
  of
• 19:03
  these

  say

  I

  the
• 19:17
  matter

  is
• 19:18
  that
• 19:18
  most
• 19:19
  of
• 19:19
  the
• 19:19
  time

  a

  putting

  them
• 19:28
  in

  need

• 19:35
  be

  of

  is

  the
• 19:36
  diagnosis.
• 19:37
  Once
• 19:37
  you.
• 19:37
  Once
• 19:38
  you
• 19:38
  get

  plan.
• 19:39
  One
• 19:39
  of
• 19:40
  the
• 19:40
  things
• 19:40
  that
• 19:40
  I
• 19:40
  would
• 19:40
  do,
• 19:41
  because
• 19:42
  most
• 19:42
  of
• 19:42
  the
• 19:42
  time,
• 19:43
  city
• 19:43
  inspectors
• 19:44
  don't
• 19:44
  really
• 19:44
  understand
• 19:45
  what's
• 19:45
  going
• 19:45
  on
• 19:45
  with
• 19:45
  this
• 19:46
  kind
• 19:46
  of
• 19:46
  stuff,
• 19:46
  and
• 19:46
  so
• 19:46
  then
• 19:47
  they
• 19:47
  hire
• 19:47
  us.
• 19:47
  They
• 19:48
  want
• 19:48
  you
• 19:48
  to
• 19:48
  hire
• 19:48
  a
• 19:48
  special
• 19:49
  inspector.
• 19:50
  Well,
• 19:50
  a
• 19:50
  lot
• 19:50
  of
• 19:50
  times
• 19:51
  the
• 19:51
  city
• 19:51
  leaves
• 19:51
  it
• 19:51
  up
• 19:52
  the
• 19:52
  contractor
• 19:52
  to
• 19:52
  hire
• 19:53
  their
• 19:53
  own
• 19:53
  special
• 19:53
  inspector.
• 19:54
  Well,
• 19:54
  that's
• 19:54
  like
• 19:54
  the
• 19:54
  fox
• 19:55
  guarding
• 19:55
  the
• 19:55
  hen
• 19:55
  house.
• 19:56
  That's
• 19:56
  dumb.
• 19:56
  Why
• 19:56
  would
• 19:56
  you
• 19:57
  do
• 19:57
  that?
• 19:57
  The
• 19:58
  better
• 19:58
  way
• 19:58
  is
• 19:58
  to
• 19:58
  have
• 19:59
  the
• 19:59
  engineer
• 19:59
  that
• 19:59
  designs
• 20:00
  the
• 20:00
  plan
• 20:00
  be
• 20:01
  the
• 20:01
  special
• 20:01
  inspector.
• 20:02
  He's
• 20:02
  the
• 20:02
  one
• 20:02
  that
• 20:03
  holds
• 20:03
  the
• 20:03
  contractor
• 20:04
  accountable.
• 20:04
  And
• 20:04
  if
• 20:05
  the
• 20:05
  contractor
• 20:05
  doesn't
• 20:06
  get
• 20:06
  something
• 20:06
  right,
• 20:06
  he's
• 20:07
  going
• 20:07
  to
• 20:07
  insist
• 20:07
  because
• 20:08
  he's
• 20:08
  going
• 20:08
  to
• 20:08
  put
• 20:08
  his
• 20:08
  seal
• 20:09
  on
• 20:09
  it.
• 20:09
  Right.
• 20:10
  And
• 20:10
  guess
• 20:10
  what?
• 20:11
  Here's
• 20:11
  what
• 20:11
  happens.
• 20:11
  A
• 20:12
  lot
• 20:12
  of
• 20:12
  times
• 20:12
  you
• 20:12
  get
• 20:12
  halfway
• 20:13
  through
• 20:13
  the
• 20:13
  project,
• 20:14
  and
• 20:15
  what
• 20:15
  happens?
• 20:15
  Oh,
• 20:16
  Mr.
• 20:16
  Jones.
• 20:17
  Yeah.
• 20:17
  We're
• 20:18
  going
• 20:18
  to
• 20:18
  need
• 20:18
  to
• 20:18
  add
• 20:18
  five
• 20:19
  more
• 20:19
  peers
• 20:19
  to
• 20:19
  your
• 20:20
  project.
• 20:21
  How's
• 20:21
  the
• 20:21
  homeowner
• 20:22
  know
• 20:22
  that?
• 20:22
  They're
• 20:22
  like,
• 20:23
  I
• 20:23
  have
• 20:23
  no
• 20:23
  idea.
• 20:23
  If
• 20:24
  they
• 20:24
  push
• 20:24
  back
• 20:24
  and
• 20:24
  go,
• 20:25
  well,
• 20:26
  no,
• 20:26
  I
• 20:26
  don't
• 20:26
  want
• 20:26
  to
• 20:26
  add
• 20:26
  five
• 20:27
  peers.
• 20:27
  Then
• 20:27
  the
• 20:27
  contractor
• 20:28
  says,
• 20:28
  well,
• 20:28
  okay,
• 20:29
  then
• 20:29
  we
• 20:29

  extra
• 20:33
  $25,000.
• 20:34
  And
• 20:35
  the
• 20:35
  fact
• 20:35
  of
• 20:35
  the
• 20:36
  matter
• 20:36
  is,

  and

  now
• 20:39
  the
• 20:39
  contractor
• 20:40
  comes
• 20:40
  and

  says,

  They're

  be
• 20:48
  a

  lot
• 20:48
  more

  And

  not

  orders

• 23:50
  out
• 23:51
  there
• 23:51
  with
• 23:52
  technology
• 23:52
  and
• 23:52
  stuff?
• 23:53
  There's
• 23:53
  lots
• 23:53
  of
• 23:53
  different
• 23:53
  ways
• 23:54
  to
• 23:54
  fix
• 23:54
  concrete
• 23:55
  now,
• 23:55
  and
• 23:56
  we're
• 23:56
  seeing
• 23:56
  more
• 23:57
  and
• 23:57
  more
• 23:57
  from
• 23:58
  trees
• 23:58
  getting
• 23:58
  bigger
• 23:59
  and
• 23:59
  other
• 24:00
  environmental
• 24:00
  things
• 24:00
  outside
• 24:01
  of
• 24:01
  the
• 24:01
  house,
• 24:02
  we're
• 24:02
  seeing
• 24:02
  those
• 24:03
  Boeing
• 24:04
  foundations
• 24:04
  where
• 24:05
  you
• 24:05
  got
• 24:05
  horizontal
• 24:06
  cracks,
• 24:06
  things
• 24:06
  like
• 24:07
  that.
• 24:07
  What
• 24:08
  is
• 24:08
  your
• 24:08
  favorite
• 24:08
  way
• 24:09
  to
• 24:09
  deal
• 24:09
  with
• 24:09
  that?
• 24:10
  And
• 24:10
  of
• 24:10
  course,
• 24:10
  that's
• 24:11
  not.
• 24:11
  There's
• 24:11
  not
• 24:11
  a
• 24:11
  one
• 24:11
  fix
• 24:12
  all.
• 24:12
  But
• 24:12
  what's
• 24:12
  your
• 24:12
  favorite?
• 24:13
  For
• 24:13
  sure,
• 24:14
  honestly,
• 24:14
  if
• 24:15
  you're
• 24:15
  going
• 24:15
  to
• 24:15
  put
• 24:15
  a
• 24:15
  pier
• 24:16
  in
• 24:16
  the
• 24:16
  ground
• 24:17
  to
• 24:17
  fix
• 24:17
  a
• 24:17
  foundation,
• 24:18
  a
• 24:18
  helical
• 24:18
  pier
• 24:19
  or
• 24:19
  a
• 24:19
  push
• 24:19
  pier,
• 24:20
  you
• 24:20
  could
• 24:20
  do
• 24:20
  a
• 24:20
  micropile,
• 24:21
  but
• 24:21
  nobody's
• 24:21
  going
• 24:22
  to
• 24:22
  do
• 24:22
  that.
• 24:22
  Nobody's
• 24:22
  going
• 24:22
  to
• 24:23
  spend
• 24:23
  that
• 24:23
  kind
• 24:23
  of
• 24:23
  money
• 24:23
  unless
• 24:23
  you're
• 24:24
  in
• 24:24
  a
• 24:24
  really
• 24:24
  rocky
• 24:24
  situation.
• 24:26
  I
• 24:26
  have
• 24:26
  a
• 24:26
  friend
• 24:26
  who
• 24:26
  owns
• 24:26
  a
• 24:27
  business
• 24:27
  up
• 24:27
  there
• 24:27
  in
• 24:27
  Reno,
• 24:28
  and
• 24:28
  it's
• 24:28
  all
• 24:28
  rock,
• 24:29
  so
• 24:29
  that's
• 24:29
  mostly
• 24:29
  what
• 24:29
  they
• 24:30
  do.
• 24:30
  But
• 24:30
  other
• 24:30
  than
• 24:30
  that,
• 24:31
  push
• 24:31
  piers,
• 24:32
  helical
• 24:32
  piers
• 24:32
  are
• 24:32
  going
• 24:32
  to
• 24:33
  work
• 24:33
  great.
• 24:33
  The
• 24:33
  question
• 24:34
  is,
• 24:34
  is
• 24:34
  that
• 24:34
  fixed
• 24:35
  the
• 24:35
  problem
• 24:36
  if
• 24:36
  you've
• 24:36
  got
• 24:36
  a
• 24:36
  heat
• 24:36
  problem?
• 24:37
  Well,
• 24:37
  now
• 24:37
  what?
• 24:38
  Well,
• 24:38
  I
• 24:38
  developed
• 24:39
  a
• 24:39
  patented
• 24:39
  system
• 24:40
  that
• 24:41
  dries
• 24:41
  out
• 24:42
  the
• 24:42
  clays
• 24:43
  underneath
• 24:43
  the
• 24:44
  foundation
• 24:44
  called
• 24:44
  the
• 24:45
  moisture
• 24:45
  level
• 24:45
  system,
• 24:46
  and
• 24:46
  it
• 24:46
  runs
• 24:46
  air
• 24:47
  through
• 24:47
  the
• 24:47
  gravel
• 24:48
  layer
• 24:48
  that's
• 24:48
  right
• 24:48
  under
• 24:48
  the
• 24:49
  concrete.
• 24:49
  And
• 24:49
  then
• 24:50
  it
• 24:50
  dries
• 24:50
  out
• 24:51
  those
• 24:51
  clays
• 24:51
  over
• 24:51
  time.
• 24:52
  And
• 24:53
  the
• 24:53
  idea
• 24:53
  is
• 24:53
  to
• 24:54
  keep
• 24:54
  them
• 24:54
  from,
• 24:55
  to
• 24:55
  stop
• 24:55
  them
• 24:55
  from
• 24:56
  swelling.
• 24:56
  Right.
• 24:57
  And
• 24:57
  it,
• 24:58
  it
• 24:58
  does
• 24:58
  work.
• 24:59
  It
• 24:59
  removed
• 24:59
  about
• 25:00
  26
• 25:01
  gallons
• 25:01
  of
• 25:01
  water
• 25:02
  every
• 25:02
  day
• 25:03
  on
• 25:03
  the
• 25:03
  average.
• 25:04
  Pretty
• 25:04
  good
• 25:04
  little
• 25:05
  system.
• 25:05
  Another
• 25:06
  innovation
• 25:06
  that
• 25:07
  I'm
• 25:07
  working
• 25:07
  on
• 25:08
  is
• 25:09
  interior
• 25:09
  floor
• 25:09
  slab.
• 25:10
  If
• 25:10
  you
• 25:10
  want
• 25:10
  to
• 25:11
  raise
• 25:11
  up
• 25:11
  an
• 25:11
  interior
• 25:11
  floor
• 25:12
  slab,
• 25:12
  let's
• 25:12
  say
• 25:12
  it's
• 25:13
  on
• 25:13
  clays
• 25:13
  and
• 25:13
  you
• 25:13
  don't
• 25:13
  want
• 25:14
  to
• 25:14
  put
• 25:14
  a
• 25:14
  foam
• 25:14
  underneath
• 25:15
  there.
• 25:15
  Well,
• 25:16
  you
• 25:16
  raise
• 25:16
  it
• 25:16
  up
• 25:16
  with
• 25:17
  foam
• 25:17
  and
• 25:18
  now
• 25:18
  those
• 25:18
  clays
• 25:18
  get
• 25:18
  wet.
• 25:19
  Oh
• 25:20
  man.
• 25:20
  Now
• 25:20
  you're
• 25:20
  going
• 25:21
  to
• 25:21
  really
• 25:21
  heave
• 25:21
  like
• 25:21
  crazy.
• 25:22
  Right.
• 25:22
  So
• 25:22
  that's
• 25:22
  a
• 25:22
  scary
• 25:23
  situation.
• 25:23
  You
• 25:23
  don't
• 25:24
  want
• 25:24
  to
• 25:24
  do
• 25:24
  that.
• 25:24
  But
• 25:25
  if
• 25:25
  you
• 25:25
  have
• 25:25
  to
• 25:25
  put
• 25:25
  in
• 25:26
  piers,
• 25:27
  you
• 25:27
  have
• 25:27
  to
• 25:27
  core
• 25:27
  in
• 25:28
  8
• 25:28
  inch
• 25:28
  holes
• 25:29
  in
• 25:29
  the
• 25:29
  slab
• 25:30
  every
• 25:30
  4ft
• 25:30
  on
• 25:31
  center.
• 25:32
  You
• 25:32
  just
• 25:32
  destroyed
• 25:33
  the
• 25:33
  integrity
• 25:33
  of
• 25:34
  the
• 25:34
  slab.
• 25:35
  And
• 25:35
  you
• 25:35
  spent
• 25:36
  about
• 25:37
  $300,000
• 25:38
  just
• 25:38
  to
• 25:39
  raise
• 25:39
  up
• 25:39
  a
• 25:39
  floor
• 25:39
  slab.
• 25:40
  Nobody's
• 25:40
  going
• 25:40
  to
• 25:40
  do
• 25:41
  that.
• 25:41
  Well,
• 25:42
  I've
• 25:42
  developed
• 25:43
  a
• 25:43
  system
• 25:43
  where
• 25:43
  you
• 25:43
  can
• 25:44
  core
• 25:44
  an
• 25:44
  inch
• 25:44
  and
• 25:44
  a
• 25:44
  half
• 25:45
  hole
• 25:45
  and
• 25:45
  use
• 25:46
  that
• 25:46
  to
• 25:46
  raise
• 25:46
  up
• 25:47
  a
• 25:47
  slab.
• 25:48
  Super
• 25:48
  cheap
• 25:48
  battery
• 25:49
  driven
• 25:49
  equipment,
• 25:50
  no
• 25:51
  hydraulics
• 25:51
  needed
• 25:52
  and
• 25:53
  super
• 25:53
  cheap,
• 25:53
  super
• 25:54
  fast.
• 25:55
  And
• 25:55
  stay
• 25:56
  tuned.
• 25:56
  We're
• 25:56
  doing
• 25:56
  the
• 25:57
  testing
• 25:57
  on
• 25:57
  this
• 25:57
  system
• 25:57
  right
• 25:58
  now.
• 25:59
  That
• 25:59
  is
• 25:59
  awesome.
• 26:00
  That
• 26:00
  is
• 26:00
  awesome.
• 26:01
  You
• 26:01
  just
• 26:01
  reminded
• 26:02
  me
• 26:02
  of
• 26:02
  the
• 26:03
  worst
• 26:03
  foundation
• 26:04
  nightmare
• 26:04
  I
• 26:05
  had
• 26:05
  walked
• 26:05
  into.
• 26:06
  And
• 26:07
  you've
• 26:07
  probably
• 26:07
  seen
• 26:07
  this
• 26:08
  before,
• 26:08
  but
• 26:08
  for
• 26:08
  me
• 26:09
  is
• 26:09
  only
• 26:09
  a
• 26:09
  couple
• 26:09
  of
• 26:10
  years
• 26:10
  in
• 26:10
  the
• 26:10
  industry.
• 26:11
  Somebody
• 26:11
  had
• 26:11
  put
• 26:11
  in
• 26:12
  a
• 26:12
  trough
• 26:12
  drain
• 26:13
  system
• 26:13
  around
• 26:13
  the
• 26:13
  house,
• 26:13
  one
• 26:14
  of
• 26:14
  those
• 26:14
  systems
• 26:15
  around
• 26:15
  the
• 26:15
  basement.
• 26:15
  And
• 26:16
  they
• 26:16
  kept
• 26:16
  going
• 26:17
  through
• 26:17
  sump
• 26:17
  pumps,
• 26:18
  but
• 26:18
  they
• 26:18
  were
• 26:18
  going
• 26:19
  through
• 26:19
  good
• 26:19
  sump
• 26:19
  pumps
• 26:19
  like
• 26:20
  zoellers
• 26:20
  every
• 26:20
  couple
• 26:20
  of
• 26:21
  years.
• 26:21
  And
• 26:21
  I'm
• 26:21
  like,
• 26:21
  oh,
• 26:22
  something's
• 26:22
  up.
• 26:23
  So
• 26:23
  go
• 26:23
  in
• 26:23
  there
• 26:23
  and
• 26:24
  I
• 26:24
  look
• 26:24
  it
• 26:24
  up
• 26:24
  and
• 26:24
  I'm
• 26:25
  like,
• 26:25
  well,
• 26:25
  you
• 26:25
  got
• 26:25
  a
• 26:25
  lot
• 26:25
  of
• 26:25
  dirt
• 26:26
  in
• 26:26
  the
• 26:26
  bottom
• 26:26
  of
• 26:26
  this.
• 26:26
  So
• 26:27
  I
• 26:27
  went
• 26:27
  around
• 26:27
  and
• 26:27
  peeled
• 26:28
  stuff
• 26:28
  back,
• 26:29
  put
• 26:29
  my
• 26:30
  inspection
• 26:30
  cam
• 26:30
  under
• 26:31
  the
• 26:31
  foundation
• 26:31
  wall
• 26:31
  and
• 26:32
  they
• 26:32
  had
• 26:32
  a
• 26:32
  12
• 26:32
  by
• 26:33
  24
• 26:33
  inch
• 26:33
  void
• 26:34
  under
• 26:35
  the
• 26:35
  entire
• 26:36
  foundation
• 26:37
  wall.
• 26:37
  This
• 26:37
  1920s
• 26:38
  home,
• 26:39
  wow.
• 26:39
  Water
• 26:39
  had
• 26:40
  been
• 26:40
  coming
• 26:40
  in
• 26:40
  underneath
• 26:41
  that
• 26:41
  and
• 26:42
  just
• 26:42
  washing
• 26:43
  it
• 26:43
  out.
• 26:43
  Yeah,
• 26:44
  washing
• 26:44
  it
• 26:44
  out.
• 26:45
  So
• 26:45
  the
• 26:45
  only
• 26:46
  thing
• 26:47
  holding
• 26:47
  up
• 26:47
  this
• 26:48
  was
• 26:48
  the
• 26:48
  tension
• 26:49
  from
• 26:49
  the
• 26:49
  dirt
• 26:50
  outside
• 26:51
  and
• 26:51
  the
• 26:51
  slab
• 26:51
  that
• 26:52
  was
• 26:52
  holding
• 26:52
  things
• 26:52
  were
• 26:53
  they
• 26:53
  there?
• 26:53
  And
• 26:53
  I
• 26:53
  just
• 26:54
  went,
• 26:54
  man,
• 26:54
  you
• 26:54
  got
• 26:55
  a
• 26:55
  huge
• 26:55
  problem
• 26:55
  here
• 26:56
  and
• 26:56
  you
• 26:56
  need
• 26:56
  to
• 26:57
  go
• 26:57
  talk
• 26:57
  to
• 26:57
  an
• 26:58
  engineer
• 26:58
  and

  an
• 26:58
  attorney
• 26:59
  at
• 26:59
  the
• 26:59
  same
• 26:59
  time.
• 27:00
  Yep,
• 27:00
  exactly
• 27:01
  right.
• 27:01
  Because
• 27:02
  you
• 27:02
  got
• 27:02
  a
• 27:02
  big
• 27:02
  problem
• 27:02
  because.
• 27:03
  What
• 27:03
  do
• 27:03
  you
• 27:03
  mean?
• 27:03
  I
• 27:03
  go
• 27:03
  look
• 27:03
  at
• 27:04
  my
• 27:04
  camera
• 27:04
  right
• 27:04
  here
• 27:04
  and
• 27:04
  that
• 27:05
  inspection
• 27:05
  camera
• 27:05
  told
• 27:06
  so
• 27:06
  many
• 27:06
  things.
• 27:06
  I'm
• 27:06
  like,
• 27:07
  there
• 27:07
  is
• 27:07
  your
• 27:08
  house
• 27:08
  is
• 27:08
  floating
• 27:08
  on
• 27:09
  Air
• 27:09
  right
• 27:09
  now.
• 27:09
  And
• 27:10
  if
• 27:10
  we
• 27:10
  have
• 27:10
  a
• 27:10
  small
• 27:11
  earthquake,
• 27:12
  those
• 27:12
  posts
• 27:13
  are
• 27:13
  on
• 27:13
  the
• 27:13
  slab.
• 27:13
  So
• 27:13
  it's
• 27:14
  going
• 27:14
  to
• 27:14
  push
• 27:14
  up
• 27:14
  that
• 27:15
  foot.
• 27:15
  So
• 27:15
  you're
• 27:15
  going
• 27:15
  to
• 27:16
  have
• 27:16
  a
• 27:16
  serious
• 27:16
  problem.
• 27:16
  And
• 27:17
  I
• 27:17
  didn't,
• 27:17
  don't
• 27:17
  know
• 27:17
  what
• 27:17
  happened
• 27:18
  after
• 27:18
  that,
• 27:18
  but
• 27:18
  I
• 27:18
  felt
• 27:18
  bad
• 27:19
  because
• 27:19
  that
• 27:19
  was
• 27:20
  probably
• 27:20
  a
• 27:20
  house
• 27:21
  that
• 27:21
  needed
• 27:21
  a
• 27:21
  new
• 27:21
  foundation.
• 27:22
  Yeah.
• 27:22
  And
• 27:23
  that's
• 27:23
  a
• 27:23
  total
• 27:23
  rebuild.
• 27:24
  You
• 27:24
  know,
• 27:24
  that's
• 27:25
  not
• 27:25
  a
• 27:25
  cheap
• 27:25
  fix.
• 27:26
  You
• 27:26
  know,
• 27:26
  I've
• 27:26
  done
• 27:27
  in
• 27:27
  the
• 27:27
  past
• 27:27
  on
• 27:28
  those
• 27:28
  situations.
• 27:28
  I
• 27:28
  don't
• 27:29
  know
• 27:29
  if
• 27:29
  you've
• 27:29
  ever
• 27:29
  done
• 27:29
  this
• 27:29
  before.
• 27:30
  We
• 27:30
  did
• 27:30
  new
• 27:31
  interior
• 27:31
  foundations.
• 27:32
  Have
• 27:32
  you
• 27:32
  ever
• 27:32
  seen
• 27:33
  that
• 27:33
  done?
• 27:33
  Yeah,
• 27:34
  I
• 27:34
  haven't
• 27:34
  done
• 27:34
  too
• 27:34
  much
• 27:34
  of
• 27:35
  that.
• 27:35
  One
• 27:35
  of
• 27:35
  the
• 27:35
  things
• 27:36
  that
• 27:36
  we
• 27:36
  did
• 27:36
  is
• 27:36
  we
• 27:36
  used
• 27:37
  a
• 27:37
  modified
• 27:37
  push
• 27:38
  pier
• 27:39
  and
• 27:39
  drove
• 27:39
  it
• 27:39
  down
• 27:40
  on
• 27:41
  the
• 27:41
  interior
• 27:41
  in
• 27:41
  the
• 27:42
  crawl
• 27:42
  space.
• 27:42
  And
• 27:42
  that
• 27:42
  worked
• 27:43
  pretty
• 27:43
  dang
• 27:43
  good.
• 27:44
  Yeah.
• 27:44
  Nice.
• 27:45
  We've
• 27:45
  done
• 27:45
  those
• 27:46
  in
• 27:46
  the
• 27:46
  past
• 27:46
  where
• 27:46
  it's
• 27:47
  a,
• 27:48
  maybe
• 27:48
  a
• 27:48
  historical
• 27:48
  building
• 27:49
  and
• 27:49
  it's
• 27:49
  brick
• 27:49
  on
• 27:50
  the
• 27:50
  outside
• 27:50
  and
• 27:51
  it's
• 27:51
  all
• 27:51
  coming
• 27:51
  apart
• 27:52
  and
• 27:52
  you
• 27:52
  still
• 27:53
  try
• 27:53
  to
• 27:53
  head
• 27:54
  instead
• 27:54
  of
• 27:54
  them
• 27:54
  coming
• 27:54
  in
• 27:55
  and
• 27:55
  lifting
• 27:55
  the
• 27:55
  house
• 27:55
  up
• 27:56
  and
• 27:56
  doing
• 27:56
  the
• 27:56
  brick,
• 27:56
  because
• 27:57
  it
• 27:57
  was
• 27:57
  historical,
• 27:58
  doing
• 27:58
  it
• 27:58
  on
• 27:58
  the
• 27:59
  inside
• 27:59
  to
• 27:59
  do
• 27:59
  it.
• 27:59
  But
• 27:59
  the
• 27:59
  problem
• 27:59
  is
• 28:00
  one,
• 28:00
  you
• 28:00
  got
• 28:00
  to
• 28:00
  gut
• 28:01
  the
• 28:01
  house
• 28:01
  down
• 28:01
  there,
• 28:02
  take
• 28:02
  all
• 28:02
  the
• 28:02
  H
• 28:02
  vac
• 28:03
  or
• 28:03
  whatever's
• 28:03
  in
• 28:03
  the
• 28:03
  basement
• 28:04
  and
• 28:04
  it's
• 28:04
  a
• 28:04
  quite
• 28:05
  the
• 28:05
  big
• 28:05
  project.
• 28:05
  But
• 28:06
  better
• 28:06
  than
• 28:06
  jacking
• 28:07
  the
• 28:07
  house
• 28:07
  up
• 28:07
  and
• 28:07
  moving
• 28:07
  everybody
• 28:08
  out
• 28:08
  of
• 28:08
  the
• 28:08
  house,
• 28:08
  right?
• 28:09
  Yeah,
• 28:09
  that's
• 28:09
  right.
• 28:10
  What
• 28:10
  do
• 28:11
  you
• 28:11
  think
• 28:11
  of
• 28:11
  carbon
• 28:11
  fiber
• 28:12
  as
• 28:12
  a
• 28:12
  repair
• 28:13
  tool
• 28:13
  out
• 28:13
  there
• 28:13
  for
• 28:13
  cracks?
• 28:14
  Have
• 28:14
  you
• 28:14
  used
• 28:14
  that
• 28:15
  a
• 28:15
  lot?
• 28:15
  Sure,
• 28:16
  yeah.
• 28:16
  Carbon
• 28:16
  fiber
• 28:17
  is
• 28:17
  a
• 28:17
  great
• 28:17
  tool.
• 28:18
  You
• 28:18
  just
• 28:18
  got
• 28:18
  to
• 28:18
  know
• 28:18
  when
• 28:18
  to
• 28:19
  use
• 28:19
  it.
• 28:19
  Right.
• 28:19
  Sometimes
• 28:20
  people
• 28:20
  think
• 28:20
  it's
• 28:20
  great
• 28:20
  for
• 28:21
  everything
• 28:21
  and
• 28:21
  it's
• 28:21
  not.
• 28:22
  It's
• 28:22
  a
• 28:23
  very
• 28:23
  Strong
• 28:23
  product.
• 28:24
  It's
• 28:24
  10
• 28:24
  times
• 28:24
  stronger
• 28:25
  than
• 28:25
  steel
• 28:25
  for
• 28:25
  the
• 28:25
  weight
• 28:26
  and
• 28:27
  it
• 28:27
  works
• 28:27
  great.
• 28:28
  I
• 28:28
  have
• 28:28
  a
• 28:28
  3D
• 28:28
  printer
• 28:29
  that
• 28:29
  prints
• 28:29
  3D
• 28:30
  carbon
• 28:30
  fiber
• 28:31
  pieces
• 28:32
  and
• 28:32
  that's
• 28:32
  for
• 28:32
  another
• 28:32
  system
• 28:33
  that
• 28:33
  I'm
• 28:33
  working
• 28:33
  on.
• 28:34
  But
• 28:35
  yeah,
• 28:35
  it's
• 28:35
  great.
• 28:36
  I
• 28:36
  used
• 28:36
  it
• 28:36
  in
• 28:37
  slabs
• 28:37
  a
• 28:37
  lot.
• 28:37
  So
• 28:38
  I
• 28:38
  would
• 28:38
  use
• 28:38
  a
• 28:38
  laminate
• 28:39
  which
• 28:39
  is
• 28:39
  like
• 28:39
  a
• 28:40
  16th
• 28:40
  of
• 28:40
  an
• 28:40
  inch
• 28:41
  by
• 28:41
  18
• 28:42
  inches
• 28:42
  long
• 28:42
  by
• 28:43
  2
• 28:43
  inches
• 28:43
  tall.
• 28:44
  And
• 28:45
  it's
• 28:45
  extruded.
• 28:46
  So
• 28:46
  it's
• 28:46
  more
• 28:46
  carbon
• 28:47
  fiber
• 28:47
  than
• 28:47
  epoxy,
• 28:48
  which
• 28:48
  strangely
• 28:49
  enough,
• 28:49
  makes
• 28:49
  it
• 28:49
  stronger.
• 28:50
  Because
• 28:50
  the
• 28:50
  carbon
• 28:50
  fiber
• 28:51
  is
• 28:51
  stronger
• 28:51
  than
• 28:51
  the
• 28:51
  epoxy.
• 28:52
  Exactly.
• 28:53
  When
• 28:53
  you
• 28:53
  extrude
• 28:54
  it,
• 28:54
  you
• 28:54
  get
• 28:55
  about
• 28:55
  seven
• 28:55
  times
• 28:55
  the
• 28:56
  strength
• 28:56
  of
• 28:56
  regular
• 28:56
  carbon
• 28:57
  fiber.
• 28:58
  And
• 28:58
  what
• 28:58
  you
• 28:58
  do
• 28:59
  is
• 28:59
  if
• 28:59
  you
• 28:59
  have
• 28:59
  a
• 28:59
  crack
• 29:00
  that
• 29:00
  snakes
• 29:00
  across
• 29:00
  the
• 29:01
  floor,
• 29:02
  you
• 29:02
  saw
• 29:02
  cut
• 29:03
  these
• 29:03
  channels
• 29:04
  in
• 29:04
  and
• 29:04
  you
• 29:04
  just
• 29:05
  slip
• 29:05
  them
• 29:05
  in.
• 29:05
  The
• 29:05
  old
• 29:06
  way
• 29:06
  is
• 29:06
  to
• 29:07
  cut
• 29:07
  it
• 29:07
  a
• 29:07
  1
• 29:08
  inch
• 29:09
  chisel
• 29:09
  it
• 29:09
  out.
• 29:09
  Throw
• 29:10
  a
• 29:10
  rebar
• 29:10
  in
• 29:10
  there
• 29:10
  and
• 29:11
  epoxy
• 29:11
  it
• 29:11
  in.
• 29:12
  Yeah,
• 29:12
  that's
• 29:13
  really
• 29:13
  a
• 29:13
  really
• 29:14
  difficult
• 29:15
  and
• 29:15
  odd.
• 29:15
  We
• 29:16
  would
• 29:16
  just
• 29:16
  saw
• 29:17
  cut
• 29:17
  it,
• 29:18
  slide
• 29:18
  these
• 29:18
  in.
• 29:19
  And
• 29:19
  we
• 29:19
  would
• 29:19
  use
• 29:19
  a
• 29:20
  polyurea
• 29:20
  instead
• 29:21
  of
• 29:21
  an
• 29:21
  epoxy.
• 29:21
  And
• 29:21
  a
• 29:22
  polyurea
• 29:22
  sets
• 29:22
  up
• 29:23
  very
• 29:23
  quickly.
• 29:24
  And
• 29:24
  it's
• 29:25
  so
• 29:25
  thin.
• 29:26
  It's
• 29:26
  like
• 29:26
  thinner
• 29:27
  than
• 29:27
  water
• 29:27
  almost.
• 29:28
  It's
• 29:28
  about
• 29:28
  the
• 29:28
  same,
• 29:28
  I
• 29:29
  think,
• 29:29
  20
• 29:29
  center
• 29:30
  poise.
• 29:30
  And
• 29:31
  it
• 29:31
  soaks
• 29:31
  into
• 29:32
  the
• 29:32
  concrete
• 29:32
  around
• 29:33
  it
• 29:33
  when
• 29:33
  it
• 29:33
  goes
• 29:34
  into
• 29:34
  to
• 29:34
  the
• 29:35
  channels
• 29:36
  and
• 29:36
  creates
• 29:37
  a
• 29:37
  bond
• 29:39
  that
• 29:39
  is
• 29:39
  super,
• 29:40
  super
• 29:40
  strong.
• 29:41
  And
• 29:42
  epoxy
• 29:43
  is
• 29:43
  stronger
• 29:44
  than
• 29:44
  polyureas,
• 29:45
  but
• 29:45
  it
• 29:46
  doesn't
• 29:46
  go
• 29:46
  into
• 29:47
  the
• 29:47
  pores.
• 29:48
  And
• 29:48
  so
• 29:48
  you
• 29:48
  have
• 29:48
  a
• 29:49
  failure
• 29:49
  of
• 29:49
  adhesion.
• 29:50
  Yeah.
• 29:51
  You
• 29:51
  can
• 29:52
  grab
• 29:52
  10
• 29:52
  times
• 29:52
  the
• 29:53
  concrete.
• 29:53
  Right,
• 29:54
  right.
• 29:55
  And
• 29:55
  the
• 29:55
  key
• 29:56
  is
• 29:56
  to
• 29:56
  put
• 29:56
  these
• 29:56
  in
• 29:57
  not
• 29:57
  parallel,
• 29:57
  but
• 29:58
  skew
• 29:58
  them.
• 29:59
  And
• 29:59
  that
• 29:59
  way
• 29:59
  they
• 30:00
  can't
• 30:00
  slide.
• 30:01
  And
• 30:01
  I'm
• 30:02
  gonna
• 30:02
  tell
• 30:02
  you,
• 30:02
  that's
• 30:02
  a
• 30:03
  great
• 30:03
  system.
• 30:03
  It's
• 30:03
  worked
• 30:04
  great.
• 30:04
  I
• 30:04
  had
• 30:05
  very
• 30:05
  few
• 30:05
  problems
• 30:06
  with
• 30:06
  those
• 30:06
  over
• 30:06
  35
• 30:07
  years.
• 30:08
  All
• 30:08
  you're
• 30:08
  doing
• 30:08
  is
• 30:09
  basically
• 30:09
  stitching
• 30:10
  it
• 30:10
  back
• 30:10
  together.
• 30:11
  Right.
• 30:11
  That
• 30:12
  is
• 30:12
  brilliant.
• 30:12
  That
• 30:12
  is
• 30:13
  brilliant.
• 30:13
  I've
• 30:13
  used
• 30:14
  a
• 30:14
  couple
• 30:14
  times,
• 30:15
  I've
• 30:15
  used
• 30:15
  the
• 30:15
  little
• 30:15
  barbell,
• 30:16
  you
• 30:16
  know,
• 30:16
  the
• 30:18
  staples,
• 30:18
  that
• 30:18
  stuff
• 30:19
  before.
• 30:20
  And
• 30:20
  those
• 30:20
  worked.
• 30:20
  Okay,
• 30:21
  but
• 30:21
  your
• 30:21
  system
• 30:21
  is
• 30:22
  way
• 30:22
  better
• 30:22
  than
• 30:22
  that.
• 30:23
  Yeah,
• 30:23
  I
• 30:23
  know
• 30:23
  what
• 30:24
  your
• 30:24
  system
• 30:24
  you're
• 30:24
  referring
• 30:25
  to.
• 30:25
  They
• 30:25
  copied
• 30:25
  my
• 30:26
  system.
• 30:27
  Did
• 30:27
  they?
• 30:27
  Okay.
• 30:28
  That's
• 30:28
  probably
• 30:28
  where
• 30:29
  they
• 30:29
  got
• 30:29
  it.
• 30:29
  I
• 30:29
  get
• 30:30
  it.
• 30:30
  Yeah.
• 30:31
  That's
• 30:31
  crazy.
• 30:31
  Canadians.
• 30:32
  But
• 30:33
  I've
• 30:33
  used
• 30:33
  it
• 30:33
  a
• 30:33
  few
• 30:34
  times.
• 30:34
  And
• 30:34
  there
• 30:34
  was
• 30:34
  a
• 30:35
  product
• 30:35
  that
• 30:35
  I've
• 30:35
  been
• 30:35
  using
• 30:36
  I
• 30:36
  did
• 30:36
  on
• 30:36
  one
• 30:37
  project.
• 30:37
  It
• 30:37
  was
• 30:37
  probably
• 30:37
  the
• 30:38
  hardest
• 30:38
  material
• 30:39
  I've
• 30:39
  ever
• 30:39
  worked
• 30:39
  with.
• 30:40
  And
• 30:40
  Simpson
• 30:40
  strong
• 30:41
  tie
• 30:41
  had
• 30:41
  came
• 30:41
  out
• 30:42
  with
• 30:42
  it.
• 30:42
  And
• 30:42
  I
• 30:42
  don't
• 30:43
  know
• 30:43
  if
• 30:43
  you've
• 30:43
  seen
• 30:43
  this
• 30:44
  before
• 30:44
  out
• 30:44
  there.
• 30:44
  It
• 30:45
  is
• 30:45
  a.
• 30:45
  If
• 30:46
  you've
• 30:46
  got
• 30:46
  a.
• 30:46
  Like
• 30:47
  a
• 30:47
  brick
• 30:47
  building
• 30:47
  and
• 30:48
  you
• 30:48
  want
• 30:48
  to
• 30:48
  make
• 30:48
  it
• 30:48
  where.
• 30:49
  Or
• 30:49
  a
• 30:49
  brick
• 30:49
  foundation,
• 30:50
  you
• 30:50
  want
• 30:50
  to
• 30:50
  make
• 30:50
  it
• 30:51
  so
• 30:51
  it's
• 30:51
  going
• 30:51
  to
• 30:51
  hold
• 30:52
  up
• 30:52
  to
• 30:52
  an
• 30:52
  earthquake.
• 30:53
  There's
• 30:53
  that
• 30:54
  carbon
• 30:54
  fiber
• 30:55
  spray
• 30:55
  that
• 30:56
  they
• 30:56
  spray
• 30:56
  on
• 30:56
  with.
• 30:57
  It's
• 30:58
  got
• 30:58
  carbon
• 30:58
  fiber
• 30:59
  concrete.
• 31:00
  And
• 31:00
  then
• 31:00
  they
• 31:00
  put
• 31:00
  a
• 31:01
  carbon
• 31:01
  fiber
• 31:01
  mesh
• 31:02
  on
• 31:02
  it.
• 31:02
  Oh,
• 31:02
  yeah.
• 31:03
  And
• 31:04
  so
• 31:04
  then
• 31:04
  they
• 31:04
  plaster
• 31:04
  it
• 31:05
  to
• 31:05
  the
• 31:05
  wall.
• 31:05
  There's
• 31:08
  a
• 31:08
  good
• 31:09
  case
• 31:09
  for
• 31:09
  that
• 31:09
  because
• 31:10
  what
• 31:10
  it
• 31:10
  does
• 31:10
  is
• 31:10
  it
• 31:10
  puts
• 31:11
  everything
• 31:11
  in
• 31:12
  confinement
• 31:13
  and
• 31:13
  hold
• 31:14
  and
• 31:14
  keeps
• 31:14
  it
• 31:15
  all
• 31:15
  together.
• 31:15
  So
• 31:16
  I
• 31:16
  would
• 31:16
  say
• 31:16
  that
• 31:17
  if
• 31:17
  it's
• 31:17
  done
• 31:17
  right,
• 31:18
  that's
• 31:18
  probably
• 31:18
  a
• 31:19
  good
• 31:19
  system.
• 31:20
  But
• 31:20
  really
• 31:20
  to
• 31:21
  be
• 31:21
  done
• 31:21
  right,
• 31:21
  you
• 31:21
  need
• 31:21
  to
• 31:21
  do
• 31:22
  it
• 31:22
  on
• 31:22
  both
• 31:22
  sides,
• 31:22
  which
• 31:22
  is
• 31:23
  probably
• 31:23
  hard
• 31:23
  to
• 31:23
  do.
• 31:24
  Yeah.
• 31:24
  And
• 31:24
  I
• 31:24
  tell
• 31:24
  you
• 31:25
  what,
• 31:25
  there
• 31:25
  is
• 31:25
  not
• 31:26
  a
• 31:26
  harder
• 31:26
  material
• 31:27
  I've
• 31:27
  ever
• 31:27
  worked
• 31:28
  with
• 31:28
  than
• 31:28
  that.
• 31:29
  Yeah.
• 31:29
  Well,
• 31:29
  I
• 31:30
  can
• 31:30
  believe
• 31:30
  that.
• 31:30
  Get
• 31:31
  the
• 31:31
  mix
• 31:31
  incorrectly.
• 31:32
  And
• 31:33
  that
• 31:33
  carbon
• 31:33
  fiber
• 31:34
  being
• 31:34
  so
• 31:35
  fibrous,
• 31:35
  it
• 31:35
  loves
• 31:36
  to
• 31:36
  plug
• 31:36
  everything
• 31:36
  up.
• 31:37
  Yep.
• 31:38
  We
• 31:38
  sat
• 31:38
  outside
• 31:38
  for
• 31:39
  about
• 31:39
  eight
• 31:39
  hours
• 31:39
  one
• 31:40
  day
• 31:40
  with
• 31:40
  the
• 31:40
  right
• 31:40
  sprayer
• 31:41
  and
• 31:41
  everything
• 31:41
  else.
• 31:41
  And
• 31:42
  I'm
• 31:42
  like,
• 31:42
  this
• 31:42
  is
• 31:42
  the
• 31:43
  most
• 31:43
  frustrating
• 31:43
  product
• 31:44
  I've
• 31:44
  ever
• 31:44
  worked
• 31:45
  with.
• 31:45
  And
• 31:45
  I'm
• 31:45
  sure
• 31:45
  they've
• 31:46
  got
• 31:46
  it
• 31:46
  better
• 31:46
  now
• 31:46
  as
• 31:47
  when
• 31:47
  it
• 31:47
  was
• 31:47
  first
• 31:47
  coming
• 31:47
  on
• 31:47
  the
• 31:48
  market.
• 31:48
  So
• 31:48
  this
• 31:48
  was
• 31:48
  a
• 31:48
  number
• 31:49
  of
• 31:49
  years
• 31:49
  ago,
• 31:49
  but
• 31:50
  anytime
• 31:51
  that
• 31:51
  we
• 31:51
  can
• 31:51
  come
• 31:51
  up
• 31:51
  with
• 31:51
  a
• 31:52
  product
• 31:52
  that's
• 31:52
  going
• 31:52
  to
• 31:52
  help
• 31:52
  people
• 31:53
  in
• 31:53
  earthquake
• 31:53
  or
• 31:54
  hurricane
• 31:54
  areas
• 31:54
  like
• 31:54
  that
• 31:55
  to
• 31:55
  be
• 31:55
  able
• 31:55
  to
• 31:55
  hold
• 31:55
  up
• 31:55
  to
• 31:56
  older
• 31:57
  brick
• 31:57
  buildings,
• 31:57
  I
• 31:57
  think
• 31:57
  it's
• 31:58
  great.
• 31:59
  Speaking
• 31:59
  of
• 31:59
  that,
• 32:00
  quite
• 32:00
  often
• 32:01
  have
• 32:01
  you
• 32:02
  been
• 32:02
  to
• 32:02
  a,
• 32:03
  like
• 32:03
  a
• 32:03
  stem
• 32:03
  wall
• 32:03
  and
• 32:04
  you
• 32:04
  see
• 32:04
  a
• 32:04
  horizontal
• 32:04
  crack
• 32:05
  right
• 32:05
  above
• 32:05
  the
• 32:05
  dirt.
• 32:06
  Okay.
• 32:07
  And
• 32:07
  that
• 32:08
  is
• 32:08
  the
• 32:08
  rebar
• 32:09
  rusting.
• 32:09
  It's
• 32:10
  called
• 32:10
  rust
• 32:10
  jacking.
• 32:11
  And
• 32:11
  so
• 32:11
  what
• 32:11
  you
• 32:12
  really
• 32:12
  need
• 32:12
  to
• 32:12
  do
• 32:13
  is
• 32:13
  take
• 32:13
  that
• 32:13
  rebar
• 32:14
  out
• 32:14
  and
• 32:14
  put
• 32:14
  a
• 32:14
  composite
• 32:15
  rebar
• 32:15
  in
• 32:15
  its
• 32:15
  place,
• 32:16
  which
• 32:16
  is
• 32:16
  easy
• 32:16
  to
• 32:17
  do.
• 32:17
  Anybody
• 32:17
  can
• 32:17
  do
• 32:17
  it,
• 32:18
  right?
• 32:18
  Yeah.
• 32:18
  But
• 32:19
  now
• 32:19
  what
• 32:19
  do
• 32:19
  you
• 32:19
  do
• 32:20
  when
• 32:20
  you
• 32:20
  get
• 32:21
  to
• 32:21
  the
• 32:21
  hold
• 32:21
  down
• 32:21
  straps?
• 32:22
  Right.
• 32:22
  Because
• 32:23
  those
• 32:23
  are
• 32:23
  made
• 32:23
  of
• 32:24
  galvanized.
• 32:24
  They're
• 32:25
  steel
• 32:25
  with
• 32:25
  a
• 32:25
  little
• 32:25
  galvanized
• 32:26
  coating
• 32:26
  on
• 32:26
  them.
• 32:27
  And
• 32:27
  that
• 32:27
  galvanized
• 32:28
  coating
• 32:28
  is
• 32:28
  gone
• 32:29
  after
• 32:29
  two
• 32:29
  years.
• 32:30
  And.
• 32:31
  And
• 32:31
  now
• 32:31
  those
• 32:31
  straps
• 32:32
  are
• 32:32
  super
• 32:32
  thin.
• 32:33
  I've
• 32:33
  never
• 32:34
  seen
• 32:34
  any
• 32:34
  of
• 32:34
  them
• 32:34
  last
• 32:35
  more
• 32:35
  than
• 32:35
  a
• 32:35
  couple
• 32:35
  years.
• 32:36
  And
• 32:37
  how
• 32:37
  do
• 32:37
  you
• 32:37
  replace
• 32:38
  them?
• 32:38
  Well,
• 32:38
  that
• 32:38
  means
• 32:39

• 32:39

  your
• 34:56
  home.
• 34:56
  While
• 34:57
  he
• 34:57
  is
• 34:57
  away,
• 34:57
  we
• 34:58
  are
• 34:58
  revisiting
• 34:58
  this
• 34:59
  important
• 34:59
  conversation
• 35:00
  with
• 35:00
  foundation
• 35:01
  expert
• 35:01
  RK
• 35:02
  Bob
• 35:02
  Brown.
• 35:03
  Now
• 35:04
  let's
• 35:04
  jump
• 35:05
  back
• 35:05
  in.
• 35:05
  Now
• 35:06
  you
• 35:06
  can
• 35:06
  get
• 35:06
  it
• 35:06
  fixed
• 35:06
  and
• 35:06
  he'll
• 35:07
  supervise
• 35:07
  it,
• 35:07
  make
• 35:08
  sure
• 35:08
  it's
• 35:08
  done,
• 35:08
  put
• 35:08
  a
• 35:08
  seal
• 35:09
  on
• 35:09
  the
• 35:09
  end.
• 35:10
  And
• 35:10
  now
• 35:10
  when
• 35:10
  the
• 35:10
  inspector
• 35:11
  brings
• 35:11
  these
• 35:11
  problems
• 35:12
  up,
• 35:12
  you
• 35:12
  have
• 35:12
  a
• 35:12
  seal
• 35:13
  either
• 35:13
  way
• 35:13
  that
• 35:13
  says
• 35:14
  it's
• 35:14
  groovy
• 35:15
  and
• 35:15
  all.
• 35:16
  Those
• 35:16
  fears
• 35:16
  are
• 35:17
  alleviated.
• 35:18
  It
• 35:19
  always
• 35:19
  seems
• 35:19
  it's
• 35:20
  that
• 35:20
  inspection
• 35:20
  process.
• 35:21
  Right.
• 35:21
  That
• 35:21
  this
• 35:22
  stuff
• 35:22
  comes
• 35:22
  up.
• 35:22
  And
• 35:23
  there's
• 35:23
  this.
• 35:24
  When
• 35:24
  I
• 35:24
  was
• 35:24
  working
• 35:24
  for
• 35:24
  that
• 35:24
  foundation
• 35:25
  company,
• 35:25
  we
• 35:25
  had
• 35:26
  two
• 35:26
  people
• 35:26
  that
• 35:26
  were
• 35:26
  in
• 35:27
  sales
• 35:27
  that
• 35:27
  just
• 35:28
  dealt
• 35:28
  with
• 35:28
  realtors.
• 35:29
  Yep.
• 35:29
  It
• 35:30
  was
• 35:30
  just.
• 35:30
  You
• 35:31
  were.
• 35:31
  Didn't
• 35:31
  know
• 35:31
  where
• 35:32
  you're
• 35:32
  going
• 35:32
  tomorrow,
• 35:32
  but
• 35:33
  it
• 35:33
  was
• 35:33
  like
• 35:34
  you
• 35:34
  were
• 35:34
  filling
• 35:34
  in,
• 35:35
  just
• 35:35
  going,
• 35:35
  yeah.
• 35:36
  And
• 35:36
  usually
• 35:36
  what
• 35:36
  happens
• 35:37
  is
• 35:37
  foundation
• 35:38
  repair
• 35:38
  companies
• 35:38
  have
• 35:39
  figured
• 35:39
  out
• 35:39
  that
• 35:40
  very
• 35:40
  few
• 35:40
  of
• 35:40
  those
• 35:40
  turn
• 35:40
  into
• 35:41
  sales.
• 35:41
  So
• 35:41
  what
• 35:41
  they
• 35:41
  do
• 35:42
  is
• 35:42
  they
• 35:42
  charge
• 35:42
  for
• 35:42
  those
• 35:43
  appointments,
• 35:43
  which
• 35:44
  is
• 35:44
  crazy
• 35:44
  because
• 35:45
  now
• 35:45
  they're
• 35:45
  really
• 35:45
  violating
• 35:46
  engineering
• 35:46
  laws.
• 35:47
  They're
• 35:47
  providing
• 35:47
  engineering
• 35:48
  advice
• 35:48
  for
• 35:48
  a
• 35:48
  price.
• 35:49
  And
• 35:50
  you
• 35:50
  know
• 35:50
  what?
• 35:51
  They're
• 35:51
  going
• 35:51
  to
• 35:51
  go
• 35:51
  out
• 35:51
  there
• 35:52
  and
• 35:52
  they're
• 35:52
  going
• 35:52
  to
• 35:52
  give
• 35:52
  you
• 35:53
  a
• 35:53
  little
• 35:54
  report
• 35:54
  with
• 35:55
  pictures
• 35:55
  and
• 35:56
  an
• 35:56
  estimate
• 35:57
  and
• 35:57
  a
• 35:57
  plan,
• 35:58
  maybe
• 35:58
  even
• 35:58
  a
• 35:59
  floor
• 35:59
  level
• 35:59
  if
• 35:59
  you're
• 35:59
  lucky,
• 36:00
  floor
• 36:00
  level
• 36:01
  survey.
• 36:01
  But
• 36:02
  no,
• 36:02
  nothing
• 36:03
  written,
• 36:03
  no
• 36:04
  opinions
• 36:04
  written
• 36:05
  because
• 36:05
  that
• 36:05
  would
• 36:06
  just
• 36:06
  be
• 36:07
  too
• 36:07
  scary
• 36:07
  for
• 36:08
  them
• 36:08
  to
• 36:08
  do.
• 36:08
  Right.
• 36:09
  Dr.
• 36:09
  Doing,
• 36:10
  you
• 36:10
  know,
• 36:10
  doing
• 36:11
  brain
• 36:11
  surgery
• 36:11
  in
• 36:12
  a
• 36:12
  storage
• 36:12
  unit.
• 36:12
  Yeah,
• 36:13
  right.
• 36:14
  Yeah,
• 36:14
  exactly.
• 36:16
  Shouldn't
• 36:16
  be
• 36:16
  happening.
• 36:16
  Shouldn't
• 36:17
  be
• 36:17
  happening.
• 36:18
  And
• 36:18
  that's
• 36:18
  the
• 36:18
  bad
• 36:18
  part
• 36:19
  with.
• 36:19
  And
• 36:19
  I
• 36:19
  wanted
• 36:20
  to
• 36:20
  talk
• 36:20
  about
• 36:20
  this
• 36:20
  too.
• 36:21
  And
• 36:21
  it's
• 36:21
  something
• 36:21
  that's
• 36:21
  going
• 36:21
  around
• 36:22
  out
• 36:22
  there
• 36:22
  with
• 36:23
  these
• 36:23
  foundation
• 36:24
  repair
• 36:24
  companies.
• 36:25
  Many
• 36:25
  times
• 36:26
  the
• 36:26
  ones
• 36:26
  with
• 36:27
  the
• 36:27
  biggest
• 36:27
  advertising
• 36:28
  budget
• 36:29
  that
• 36:29
  show
• 36:29
  up
• 36:29
  on
• 36:30
  the
• 36:30
  Google
• 36:30
  searches
• 36:30
  with
• 36:31
  all
• 36:31
  the
• 36:31
  paid
• 36:31
  ads
• 36:31
  are
• 36:32
  showing
• 36:32
  up
• 36:32
  on
• 36:32
  your.
• 36:33
  Maybe
• 36:33
  they're
• 36:34
  not
• 36:34
  the
• 36:34
  ones
• 36:34
  you're
• 36:35
  supposed
• 36:35
  to
• 36:35
  call.
• 36:36
  Well,
• 36:36
  that's
• 36:36
  exactly
• 36:37
  right.
• 36:37
  Think
• 36:37
  about
• 36:38
  it.
• 36:38
  There's
• 36:38
  been
• 36:38
  a
• 36:39
  big
• 36:39
  thing
• 36:39
  going
• 36:40
  on
• 36:40
  in
• 36:40
  the
• 36:40
  industry
• 36:40
  where
• 36:41
  private
• 36:41
  equity
• 36:41
  companies
• 36:42
  or
• 36:42
  even
• 36:43
  just
• 36:43
  large
• 36:43
  companies
• 36:44
  of
• 36:44
  been
• 36:44
  going
• 36:45
  around
• 36:45
  and
• 36:45
  buying
• 36:45
  up
• 36:46
  small
• 36:46
  mom
• 36:47
  and
• 36:47
  pops.
• 36:48
  Well,
• 36:49
  guess
• 36:49
  what?
• 36:50
  You
• 36:50
  got
• 36:50
  a
• 36:51
  problem
• 36:51
  with
• 36:51
  the
• 36:51
  mom
• 36:51
  and
• 36:52
  pop,
• 36:52
  they're
• 36:53
  probably
• 36:53
  going
• 36:53
  to
• 36:53
  listen
• 36:53
  to
• 36:53
  you.
• 36:54
  I
• 36:54
  owned
• 36:55
  a
• 36:55
  company
• 36:55
  for
• 36:55
  35
• 36:56
  years.
• 36:56
  I
• 36:56
  sold
• 36:56
  two
• 36:57
  years
• 36:57
  ago
• 36:57
  and
• 36:58
  I
• 36:58
  see
• 36:58
  the
• 36:58
  way
• 36:58
  the
• 36:59
  company
• 36:59
  behaves
• 36:59
  now
• 37:00
  versus
• 37:00
  when
• 37:00
  it
• 37:00
  was
• 37:01
  my
• 37:01
  company.
• 37:02
  Big
• 37:02
  difference.
• 37:03
  You're
• 37:03
  a
• 37:03
  big
• 37:03
  company
• 37:04
  and
• 37:04
  you're
• 37:05
  millions
• 37:05
  or
• 37:06
  billions
• 37:06
  of
• 37:06
  dollars
• 37:06
  in
• 37:07
  sales
• 37:07
  all
• 37:07
  over
• 37:07
  America.
• 37:09
  You're
• 37:09
  not
• 37:09
  going
• 37:09
  to
• 37:10
  really
• 37:11
  care
• 37:11
  that
• 37:11
  much
• 37:11
  about
• 37:12
  some
• 37:12
  dinky
• 37:12
  little
• 37:13
  homeowner
• 37:13
  that's
• 37:13
  not
• 37:13
  happy.
• 37:14
  It's
• 37:14
  just
• 37:15
  not
• 37:15
  going
• 37:15
  to
• 37:15
  happen.
• 37:16
  Yeah.
• 37:16
  Where
• 37:17
  you're
• 37:17
  losing
• 37:17
  a
• 37:17
  $30,000
• 37:18
  deal
• 37:19
  due
• 37:19
  to
• 37:19
  a
• 37:19
  complaint.
• 37:22
  You
• 37:22
  have
• 37:22
  Mr.
• 37:23
  Or
• 37:23
  Mrs.
• 37:23
  Homeowner
• 37:25
  upset
• 37:25
  and
• 37:26
  that
• 37:26
  business
• 37:26
  owner
• 37:27
  is
• 37:27
  all
• 37:28
  over
• 37:28
  it
• 37:28
  because
• 37:29
  that
• 37:29
  one
• 37:30
  Google
• 37:30
  review
• 37:31
  could
• 37:31
  kill
• 37:32
  them.
• 37:32
  And
• 37:32
  think
• 37:33
  about
• 37:33
  it.
• 37:33
  Let's
• 37:33
  just
• 37:34
  suppose
• 37:34
  that
• 37:34
  you
• 37:34
  decide
• 37:35
  to
• 37:35
  sue
• 37:35
  the
• 37:36
  company.
• 37:36
  Okay?
• 37:37
  Now
• 37:37
  if
• 37:37
  you're
• 37:37
  suing
• 37:37
  a
• 37:38
  mom
• 37:38
  and
• 37:38
  pop,
• 37:38
  they're
• 37:39
  going
• 37:39
  to
• 37:39
  take
• 37:39
  it
• 37:39
  seriously.
• 37:40
  You're
• 37:40
  suing
• 37:40
  a
• 37:40
  billion
• 37:40
  dollar
• 37:41
  company.
• 37:41
  They
• 37:42
  don't
• 37:42
  care.
• 37:43
  They're
• 37:43
  going
• 37:43
  to
• 37:44
  drag
• 37:44
  it
• 37:44
  out
• 37:44
  for
• 37:44
  four
• 37:45
  years
• 37:45
  and
• 37:45
  make
• 37:46
  and
• 37:46
  grind
• 37:47
  you
• 37:47
  down
• 37:47
  with
• 37:47
  $300,000
• 37:49
  in
• 37:49
  expert
• 37:50
  testimony.
• 37:51
  They
• 37:52
  don't
• 37:52
  care.
• 37:52
  No.
• 37:53
  And
• 37:53
  they
• 37:53
  got
• 37:53
  their
• 37:53
  own
• 37:53
  legal
• 37:54
  team
• 37:54
  that's
• 37:54
  on
• 37:54
  staff.
• 37:55
  Oh
• 37:55
  yeah.
• 37:55
  So
• 37:55
  they're
• 37:56
  going
• 37:56
  to
• 37:56
  spend
• 37:56
  your
• 37:57
  money.
• 37:57
  Oh
• 37:58
  yeah.
• 37:58
  You
• 37:58
  know,
• 37:59
  absolutely
• 38:00
  insane
• 38:00
  how
• 38:01
  bad
• 38:01
  that
• 38:01
  goes.
• 38:02
  It's
• 38:02
  just
• 38:02
  crazy.
• 38:03
  And
• 38:03
  so
• 38:03
  that's
• 38:04
  one
• 38:04
  of
• 38:04
  the
• 38:04
  things
• 38:04
  that's
• 38:05
  a
• 38:05
  little
• 38:05
  disheartening
• 38:06
  about
• 38:06
  that
• 38:06
  out
• 38:06
  there
• 38:06
  is
• 38:07
  much
• 38:07
  more
• 38:08
  about
• 38:08
  the
• 38:08

• 38:08
  and
• 38:08
  pops
• 38:09
  than

  some
• 38:10
  of
• 38:10
  these
• 38:10
  bigger
• 38:10
  companies.
• 38:11
  So
• 38:11
  just
• 38:11
  because
• 38:11
  they
• 38:12
  show
• 38:12
  up
• 38:12
  at

  the

  your

• 38:14
  doesn't

  mean
• 38:14
  they're
• 38:15
  the
• 38:15
  right
• 38:15

  maintaining

  when

  they're
• 38:28
  a
• 38:28
  homeowner,
• 38:29
  walking
• 38:29
  around

  and
• 38:29
  keeping
• 38:30
  an
• 38:30
  eye
• 38:30
  on

  things?
• 38:31
  Well,
• 38:31
  the
• 38:31
  name
• 38:32
  of
• 38:32
  the
• 38:32
  game
• 38:32
  is
• 38:34
  changes
• 38:34
  in
• 38:34
  moisture.
• 38:35
  Okay.
• 38:36
  So
• 38:36
  what
• 38:36
  you
• 38:36
  want
• 38:37
  to
• 38:37
  do
• 38:37
  is
• 38:37
  try
• 38:37
  to
• 38:37
  keep
• 38:38
  moisture
• 38:39
  as
• 38:39
  constant
• 38:40
  as
• 38:40
  you
• 38:40
  can.
• 38:41
  So
• 38:41
  if
• 38:42
  you're
• 38:42
  in
• 38:42
  a
• 38:42
  dry
• 38:42
  area,
• 38:43
  you
• 38:43
  want
• 38:43
  to
• 38:43
  keep
• 38:43
  it
• 38:43
  dry.
• 38:44
  If
• 38:44
  you're
• 38:44
  in
• 38:44
  a
• 38:44
  wet
• 38:44
  area,
• 38:44
  you
• 38:45
  want
• 38:45
  to
• 38:45
  keep
• 38:45
  it
• 38:45
  wet.
• 38:45
  Now
• 38:46
  the
• 38:46
  problem
• 38:46
  is,
• 38:46
  what
• 38:47
  do
• 38:47
  you
• 38:47
  do
• 38:47
  in
• 38:47
  an
• 38:48
  area
• 38:48
  that's
• 38:49
  wet
• 38:49
  half
• 38:49
  the
• 38:49
  time
• 38:50
  and
• 38:50
  dry
• 38:50
  half
• 38:50
  the
• 38:51
  time?
• 38:51
  You
• 38:51
  want
• 38:52
  to
• 38:52
  try
• 38:52
  to
• 38:52
  even
• 38:52
  that
• 38:53
  out.
• 38:53
  I
• 38:53
  had
• 38:53
  a
• 38:54
  house
• 38:54
  in
• 38:54
  Flagstaff,
• 38:55
  which
• 38:55
  is
• 38:55
  northern
• 38:56
  Arizona,
• 38:56
  very
• 38:57
  snowy,
• 38:57
  Big
• 38:57
  pine
• 38:58
  trees
• 38:59
  and
• 38:59
  a
• 38:59
  lot
• 38:59
  of
• 38:59
  clays.
• 39:00
  There's
• 39:00
  a
• 39:00
  volcano
• 39:01
  there
• 39:02
  and.
• 39:02
  Or
• 39:03
  a
• 39:03
  dead
• 39:03
  volcano.
• 39:04
  And
• 39:05
  the
• 39:05
  problem
• 39:05
  was,
• 39:06
  to
• 39:06
  make
• 39:06
  a
• 39:06
  long
• 39:07
  story
• 39:07
  short,
• 39:08
  the
• 39:08
  problem
• 39:08
  was
• 39:09
  that
• 39:09
  in
• 39:09
  the
• 39:09
  winter,
• 39:10
  the
• 39:10
  snows
• 39:11
  would
• 39:11
  come,
• 39:12
  they
• 39:12
  would
• 39:12
  melt,
• 39:13
  the
• 39:14
  water
• 39:14
  would
• 39:14
  go
• 39:14
  underneath
• 39:15
  the
• 39:15
  house
• 39:15
  and
• 39:15
  wet
• 39:15
  all
• 39:16
  those
• 39:16
  clays.
• 39:17
  And
• 39:17
  in
• 39:17
  the
• 39:17
  summertime,
• 39:18
  there
• 39:18
  was
• 39:18
  these
• 39:18
  huge
• 39:19
  trees
• 39:19
  that
• 39:19
  would
• 39:19
  suck
• 39:20
  all
• 39:20
  that
• 39:20
  soil
• 39:20
  back
• 39:20
  out.
• 39:21
  So
• 39:21
  there
• 39:21
  was
• 39:22
  this
• 39:22
  huge
• 39:23
  action
• 39:24
  going
• 39:24
  on.
• 39:25
  And
• 39:26
  to
• 39:26
  boot,
• 39:26
  this
• 39:27
  happens
• 39:27
  a
• 39:27
  lot.
• 39:28
  They
• 39:28
  put
• 39:28
  the
• 39:28
  guttering
• 39:29
  system
• 39:29
  in
• 39:29
  and
• 39:30
  they
• 39:30
  piped
• 39:30
  it
• 39:30
  down
• 39:30
  into
• 39:30
  a
• 39:31
  perforated
• 39:31
  drain.
• 39:32
  Drain.
• 39:33
  They
• 39:33
  wanted.
• 39:33
  They
• 39:33
  wanted
• 39:34
  to
• 39:34
  make
• 39:34
  the
• 39:34
  French
• 39:35
  drain
• 39:35
  and
• 39:35
  the
• 39:35
  drain
• 39:35
  for
• 39:36
  the
• 39:36
  gutters
• 39:36
  all
• 39:36
  in
• 39:36
  one,
• 39:37
  which
• 39:37
  is
• 39:38
  okay.
• 39:38
  We're
• 39:38
  going
• 39:38
  to
• 39:39
  just
• 39:39
  put
• 39:39
  a
• 39:39
  super
• 39:39
  highway
• 39:40
  down
• 39:40
  to
• 39:40
  the
• 39:41
  drain.
• 39:42
  Awesome.
• 39:42
  A
• 39:42
  super
• 39:42
  high
• 39:43
  pressure
• 39:43
  injection
• 39:44
  system,
• 39:45
  you
• 39:45
  know,
• 39:45
  and
• 39:45
  that
• 39:45
  just
• 39:45
  made
• 39:46
  it
• 39:46
  worse.
• 39:46
  But
• 39:46
  bottom
• 39:47
  line
• 39:47
  is
• 39:47
  one
• 39:47
  of
• 39:48
  the
• 39:48
  things
• 39:48
  that
• 39:48
  I
• 39:48
  developed
• 39:49
  for
• 39:49
  this
• 39:49
  project
• 39:50
  was
• 39:50
  a
• 39:50
  drying
• 39:51
  system
• 39:51
  that
• 39:51
  would
• 39:52
  go
• 39:52
  through
• 39:52
  those
• 39:52
  sands
• 39:53
  underneath
• 39:53
  the
• 39:53
  house
• 39:54
  and
• 39:54
  there
• 39:54
  would
• 39:54
  be
• 39:54
  a
• 39:54
  switch.
• 39:55
  You
• 39:55
  just
• 39:55
  flick
• 39:55
  the
• 39:56
  switch
• 39:56
  on
• 39:57
  in
• 39:58
  the
• 39:58
  winter
• 39:58
  to
• 39:58
  keep
• 39:58
  it
• 39:59
  dry.
• 39:59
  You
• 39:59
  turn
• 40:00
  it
• 40:00
  off
• 40:00
  in
• 40:00
  the
• 40:00
  summer,
• 40:01
  and
• 40:01
  that
• 40:01
  kept
• 40:01
  the
• 40:01
  constant.
• 40:02
  That
• 40:02
  is
• 40:03
  awesome.
• 40:03
  Boy.
• 40:04
  Nowadays
• 40:04
  with
• 40:04
  smart
• 40:05
  home
• 40:05
  tech,
• 40:05
  you
• 40:05
  could
• 40:05
  just
• 40:05
  put
• 40:06
  a
• 40:06
  switch
• 40:06
  on
• 40:06
  that,
• 40:06
  right.
• 40:07
  And
• 40:07
  say,
• 40:08
  okay,
• 40:08
  on
• 40:09
  December
• 40:09
  1st
• 40:10
  or
• 40:10
  whatever,
• 40:10
  that's
• 40:10
  going
• 40:10
  to
• 40:11
  turn
• 40:11
  on
• 40:11
  for
• 40:11
  this
• 40:11
  many
• 40:11
  hours
• 40:12
  a
• 40:12
  week.
• 40:12
  Oh,
• 40:13
  yeah.
• 40:13
  Or
• 40:13
  you
• 40:13
  could
• 40:14
  even
• 40:14
  make
• 40:14
  a
• 40:14
  moisture
• 40:15
  sensitive
• 40:16
  switch.
• 40:16
  Yeah.
• 40:17
  Just
• 40:17
  like
• 40:17
  you'd
• 40:17
  have
• 40:17
  a
• 40:18
  bath
• 40:18
  fan
• 40:18
  or
• 40:18
  something.
• 40:19
  Yep.
• 40:19
  Simple.
• 40:20
  I
• 40:20
  like
• 40:21
  it.
• 40:21
  That
• 40:22
  is
• 40:22
  smart.
• 40:22
  And
• 40:22
  that's
• 40:23
  one
• 40:23
  of
• 40:23
  the
• 40:23
  things
• 40:23
  that
• 40:24
  we
• 40:24
  see
• 40:24
  a
• 40:24
  lot
• 40:24
  here
• 40:25
  in
• 40:25
  our
• 40:25
  area
• 40:25
  because
• 40:25
  we
• 40:26
  Are
• 40:26
  that
• 40:26
  in
• 40:26
  my
• 40:26
  area
• 40:27
  at
• 40:27
  least
• 40:27
  that's
• 40:27
  that
• 40:27
  six
• 40:28
  months
• 40:28
  of
• 40:28
  the
• 40:28
  year
• 40:28
  it's
• 40:29
  raining.
• 40:29
  We're
• 40:29
  raining
• 40:29
  here
• 40:30
  till
• 40:30
  June
• 40:30
  and
• 40:30
  then
• 40:30
  it's
• 40:31
  dead
• 40:31
  dry.
• 40:32
  Right.
• 40:33
  It's
• 40:33
  the
• 40:33
  biggest
• 40:34
  cause
• 40:34
  of
• 40:34
  our
• 40:34
  foundation
• 40:35
  issues
• 40:35
  around
• 40:35
  here.
• 40:35
  And
• 40:36
  I
• 40:36
  can
• 40:36
  just
• 40:37
  drive
• 40:37
  down
• 40:37
  the
• 40:37
  street
• 40:38
  and
• 40:38
  see
• 40:38
  the
• 40:38
  white
• 40:39
  lawns
• 40:39
  in
• 40:39
  July
• 40:40
  and
• 40:40
  go,
• 40:41
  problems,
• 40:42
  problems.
• 40:42
  I
• 40:42
  could
• 40:43
  be.
• 40:43
  I
• 40:43
  could
• 40:43
  walk
• 40:43
  down
• 40:44
  that
• 40:44
  with
• 40:44
  door
• 40:44
  hangers
• 40:45
  if
• 40:45
  I
• 40:45
  was
• 40:45
  a
• 40:45
  foundation
• 40:45
  guy.
• 40:46
  Yeah.
• 40:47
  You
• 40:47
  just
• 40:47
  know
• 40:47
  what's
• 40:48
  going
• 40:48
  on
• 40:48
  without
• 40:48
  even
• 40:48
  looking
• 40:48
  at
• 40:49
  it.
• 40:49
  And
• 40:49
  the
• 40:49
  shame
• 40:50
  about
• 40:50
  that
• 40:50
  is
• 40:51
  that
• 40:51
  half
• 40:52
  of
• 40:52
  those
• 40:52
  problems
• 40:53
  might
• 40:53
  be
• 40:53
  heave
• 40:53
  problems,
• 40:54
  not
• 40:54
  settlement
• 40:54
  problems.
• 40:55
  Right?
• 40:56
  Yeah,
• 40:56
  absolutely.
• 40:57
  Absolutely.
• 40:58
  I
• 40:59
  had
• 40:59
  one
• 40:59
  house
• 40:59
  that,
• 41:00
  that
• 41:00
  I'd
• 41:00
  seen
• 41:01
  and
• 41:01
  you,
• 41:01
  you
• 41:02
  could.
• 41:02
  You
• 41:02
  probably
• 41:02
  should
• 41:03
  write
• 41:03
  a
• 41:03
  book
• 41:03
  on
• 41:03
  the
• 41:03
  crazy
• 41:04
  things
• 41:04
  you've
• 41:04
  seen
• 41:04
  out
• 41:04
  there
• 41:04
  with
• 41:05
  pictures
• 41:05
  if
• 41:05
  you've
• 41:05
  got
• 41:05
  them.
• 41:06
  Oh
• 41:06
  yeah,
• 41:06
  sure.
• 41:07
  You've
• 41:07
  got
• 41:07
  those.
• 41:08
  I
• 41:08
  had
• 41:08
  one
• 41:09
  where
• 41:10
  middle
• 41:10
  of
• 41:10
  winter,
• 41:10
  I
• 41:10
  got
• 41:11
  called
• 41:11
  out
• 41:12
  and
• 41:12
  again,
• 41:12
  this
• 41:12
  was
• 41:13
  someone
• 41:14
  missing
• 41:14
  maintenance
• 41:15
  day.
• 41:15
  Right.
• 41:16
  So
• 41:17
  in,
• 41:18
  in
• 41:18
  respect
• 41:19
  to
• 41:19
  the
• 41:19
  homeowner,
• 41:20
  his
• 41:20
  kids
• 41:20
  were
• 41:20
  living
• 41:21
  at
• 41:21
  home
• 41:21
  and
• 41:21
  they
• 41:21
  were
• 41:21
  adult
• 41:22
  kids.
• 41:22
  He
• 41:22
  was
• 41:22
  a
• 41:22
  long
• 41:23
  haul
• 41:23
  truck
• 41:23
  driver.
• 41:24
  So
• 41:24
  he
• 41:24
  comes
• 41:24
  home
• 41:25
  and
• 41:25
  goes,
• 41:25
  what
• 41:25
  happened
• 41:25
  to
• 41:25
  the
• 41:26
  kitchen?
• 41:26
  The
• 41:26
  refrigerator
• 41:27
  is
• 41:27
  bound
• 41:28
  up
• 41:28
  against
• 41:29
  the
• 41:29
  refrigerator
• 41:30
  wall.
• 41:30
  And
• 41:31
  I'm
• 41:31
  like,
• 41:31
  oh,
• 41:31
  well,
• 41:31
  let
• 41:32
  me
• 41:32
  get
• 41:32
  down
• 41:32
  the
• 41:32
  crawl
• 41:32
  space
• 41:32
  and
• 41:33
  take
• 41:33
  a
• 41:33
  look.
• 41:33
  It's
• 41:34
  a
• 41:34
  30
• 41:34
  degree
• 41:34
  day
• 41:35
  outside.
• 41:35
  I
• 41:35
  pull
• 41:35
  the
• 41:35
  crawl
• 41:36
  space
• 41:36
  over
• 41:37
  cover
• 41:37
  off
• 41:37
  in
• 41:38
  steam.
• 41:39
  I'm
• 41:39
  just
• 41:39
  running
• 41:39
  out.
• 41:40
  Oh,
• 41:40
  no.
• 41:41
  I
• 41:41
  got
• 41:41
  down
• 41:41
  there
• 41:42
  in
• 41:42
  the
• 41:42
  cast.
• 41:43
  The,
• 41:43
  actually
• 41:43
  the
• 41:44
  galvanized
• 41:44
  pipe
• 41:45
  that
• 41:45
  was
• 41:45
  coming
• 41:45
  off
• 41:46
  the
• 41:46
  washing
• 41:46
  machine,
• 41:47
  off
• 41:47
  the
• 41:47
  drain
• 41:48
  had
• 41:48
  broken
• 41:49
  and
• 41:49
  was
• 41:50
  just.
• 41:50
  And
• 41:50
  they
• 41:50
  had
• 41:51
  a
• 41:51
  50
• 41:51
  gallon
• 41:52
  washing
• 41:52
  machine.
• 41:52
  It's
• 41:53
  an
• 41:53
  old
• 41:53
  top
• 41:53
  load.
• 41:54
  Every
• 41:54
  time
• 41:54
  they
• 41:54
  do
• 41:55
  a
• 41:55
  load
• 41:55
  of
• 41:55
  laundry,
• 41:56
  50
• 41:56
  gallons
• 41:57
  of
• 41:57
  hot
• 41:57
  water
• 41:57
  go
• 41:57
  down
• 41:57
  there.
• 41:58
  And
• 41:59
  there
• 41:59
  was
• 41:59
  three
• 42:00
  feet
• 42:00
  under
• 42:00
  the
• 42:00
  foundation
• 42:01
  right
• 42:02
  at
• 42:02
  the
• 42:02
  kitchen
• 42:02
  wall.
• 42:03
  And
• 42:03
  that
• 42:03
  whole
• 42:03
  kitchen
• 42:04
  had
• 42:04
  just
• 42:04
  sunk.
• 42:04
  You
• 42:05
  can
• 42:05
  see
• 42:05
  it
• 42:05
  in
• 42:05
  the
• 42:05
  roof
• 42:05
  line.
• 42:06
  Wow.
• 42:07
  And
• 42:08
  for
• 42:09
  them
• 42:09
  I
• 42:09
  said,
• 42:09
  you
• 42:09
  know,
• 42:10
  a
• 42:10
  couple
• 42:10
  things.
• 42:11
  I
• 42:11
  talked
• 42:11
  to
• 42:11
  your
• 42:12
  insurance
• 42:12
  company
• 42:12
  first.
• 42:13
  That
• 42:13
  actually
• 42:14
  might
• 42:14
  be
• 42:15
  an
• 42:15
  insurance
• 42:16
  issue.
• 42:16
  You
• 42:17
  might
• 42:17
  be
• 42:17
  able
• 42:17
  to
• 42:17
  get
• 42:17
  away
• 42:18
  with
• 42:18
  that.
• 42:18
  And
• 42:18
  that's
• 42:18
  rare
• 42:19
  with
• 42:19
  foundations.
• 42:19
  Right.
• 42:20
  Well,
• 42:20
  I'll
• 42:21
  tell
• 42:21
  you,
• 42:21
  I.
• 42:22
  Here's
• 42:22
  the
• 42:22
  key.
• 42:23
  If
• 42:23
  you
• 42:24
  have
• 42:24
  a
• 42:24
  floor
• 42:24
  level
• 42:25
  survey,
• 42:26
  you
• 42:26
  know,
• 42:26
  as
• 42:26
  a
• 42:26
  baseline,
• 42:27
  and
• 42:27
  now
• 42:28
  an
• 42:28
  event
• 42:28
  comes
• 42:29
  along
• 42:29
  like
• 42:29
  this
• 42:30
  and
• 42:30
  happens
• 42:31
  and
• 42:31
  you
• 42:31
  can
• 42:31
  show
• 42:32
  that,
• 42:32
  okay,
• 42:32
  this
• 42:33
  was
• 42:33
  sudden
• 42:33
  and
• 42:33
  catastrophic.
• 42:34
  It
• 42:34
  occurred
• 42:35
  after
• 42:35
  the
• 42:35
  pipe
• 42:36
  break.
• 42:36
  It
• 42:36
  was
• 42:36
  caused
• 42:36
  by
• 42:37
  the
• 42:37
  pipe
• 42:37
  break.
• 42:38
  You
• 42:38
  can
• 42:39
  probably
• 42:39
  have
• 42:39
  a
• 42:40
  fighting
• 42:40
  chance
• 42:40
  to
• 42:41
  get
• 42:41
  the
• 42:41
  insurance
• 42:41
  to
• 42:41
  cover
• 42:42
  it.
• 42:42
  I
• 42:42
  actually
• 42:42
  had
• 42:42
  insurance
• 42:43
  cover
• 42:43
  one
• 42:43
  of
• 42:43
  my
• 42:43
  rental
• 42:44
  houses
• 42:44
  that
• 42:44
  way
• 42:45
  and
• 42:45
  had
• 42:46
  all
• 42:46
  the
• 42:46
  documentation,
• 42:47
  had
• 42:47
  everything
• 42:47
  planned.
• 42:48
  One
• 42:48
  of
• 42:48
  the
• 42:48
  things
• 42:48
  that
• 42:49
  we
• 42:49
  do
• 42:49
  is
• 42:49
  we
• 42:49
  Have
• 42:50
  a
• 42:50
  software
• 42:50
  that
• 42:50
  we
• 42:51
  provide
• 42:51
  for
• 42:51
  both
• 42:51
  engineers,
• 42:52
  contractors,
• 42:53
  and
• 42:53
  we're
• 42:53
  starting
• 42:54
  to
• 42:54
  train
• 42:54
  home
• 42:54
  inspectors
• 42:55
  that
• 42:56
  when
• 42:56
  you
• 42:56
  take
• 42:56
  the
• 42:56
  floor
• 42:57
  level
• 42:57
  survey,
• 42:58
  it
• 42:58
  pops
• 42:58
  it
• 42:58
  right
• 42:59
  into
• 42:59
  the
• 42:59
  computer
• 42:59
  program
• 43:00
  and
• 43:00
  does
• 43:00
  a
• 43:01
  colored
• 43:01
  3D
• 43:02
  model
• 43:02
  that
• 43:02
  shows
• 43:02
  you
• 43:02
  where
• 43:03
  it's
• 43:03
  high
• 43:03
  and
• 43:03
  where
• 43:03
  it's
• 43:04
  low.
• 43:04
  Cool.
• 43:05
  It's
• 43:05
  really
• 43:05
  cool.
• 43:06
  Now,
• 43:06
  guess
• 43:07
  what?
• 43:07
  Five
• 43:07
  years
• 43:08
  from
• 43:08
  now,
• 43:08
  you
• 43:09
  can
• 43:09
  take
• 43:09
  the
• 43:10
  first
• 43:10
  values,
• 43:10
  subtract
• 43:11
  them
• 43:11
  from
• 43:11
  the
• 43:11
  second
• 43:12
  values,
• 43:12
  and
• 43:12
  it
• 43:13
  prints
• 43:13
  you
• 43:13
  a
• 43:13
  model
• 43:14
  of
• 43:14
  how
• 43:14
  it's
• 43:14
  moved
• 43:15
  in
• 43:16
  the
• 43:16
  intervening
• 43:17
  time.
• 43:17
  And
• 43:18
  that's
• 43:18
  super
• 43:18
  valuable.
• 43:20
  We're
• 43:21
  seeing
• 43:21
  a
• 43:21
  lot
• 43:21
  of
• 43:21
  people
• 43:22
  using
• 43:22
  this
• 43:22
  technology
• 43:23
  and
• 43:23
  benefiting
• 43:24
  from.
• 43:24
  From
• 43:24
  it.
• 43:24
  Wow.
• 43:25
  And
• 43:25
  if
• 43:25
  you
• 43:25
  do
• 43:25
  that
• 43:25
  seasonally,
• 43:26
  you
• 43:26
  can
• 43:26
  really
• 43:27
  see
• 43:28
  where
• 43:28
  shrinkage
• 43:29
  heaves
• 43:30
  or
• 43:30
  whatever
• 43:30
  else
• 43:30
  is
• 43:30
  happening.
• 43:31
  Yeah.
• 43:31
  Because
• 43:32
  the
• 43:32
  old
• 43:32
  argument
• 43:33
  is,
• 43:33
  hey,
• 43:33
  it's
• 43:33
  low
• 43:34
  on
• 43:34
  this
• 43:34
  one
• 43:34
  side.
• 43:34
  Well,
• 43:34
  maybe
• 43:35
  it
• 43:35
  was
• 43:35
  poured
• 43:35
  that
• 43:35
  way
• 43:36
  or
• 43:36
  how
• 43:36
  do
• 43:37
  we
• 43:37
  know?
• 43:37
  Well,
• 43:38
  guess
• 43:38
  what?
• 43:38
  If
• 43:39
  six
• 43:39
  months
• 43:39
  ago
• 43:39
  it
• 43:40
  was
• 43:40
  this
• 43:40
  way
• 43:40
  and
• 43:40
  now
• 43:41
  it's
• 43:41
  this
• 43:41
  way,
• 43:42
  you
• 43:42
  can
• 43:42
  pretty
• 43:42
  well
• 43:43
  see
• 43:43
  a
• 43:43
  pattern
• 43:43
  of
• 43:43
  what's
• 43:44
  going
• 43:44
  on,
• 43:44
  Right?
• 43:45
  Yeah.
• 43:46
  And
• 43:46
  sometimes
• 43:46
  dropping
• 43:47
  down
• 43:47
  pushes
• 43:48
  up
• 43:48
  over
• 43:48
  here
• 43:48
  and
• 43:49
  so
• 43:49
  you
• 43:49
  get
• 43:49
  figure
• 43:50
  out
• 43:50
  what's
• 43:50
  going
• 43:50
  on.
• 43:51
  Oh,
• 43:51
  yeah,
• 43:51
  absolutely.
• 43:51
  It's
• 43:52
  a
• 43:52
  bit
• 43:52
  of
• 43:52
  an
• 43:52
  art
• 43:52
  to
• 43:53
  understand
• 43:53
  a
• 43:53
  floor
• 43:53
  level
• 43:54
  survey
• 43:54
  because
• 43:55
  there's
• 43:55
  no
• 43:55
  benchmark.
• 43:56
  So
• 43:56
  all
• 43:56
  you're
• 43:57
  doing
• 43:57
  is
• 43:57
  looking
• 43:57
  at
• 43:58
  relative
• 43:58
  elevations
• 43:59
  and
• 44:00
  trying
• 44:00
  to
• 44:00
  figure
• 44:00
  out,
• 44:00
  okay,
• 44:01
  what
• 44:01
  went
• 44:01
  up
• 44:01
  and
• 44:01
  what
• 44:01
  went
• 44:01
  down.
• 44:02
  And
• 44:02
  there's
• 44:02
  a
• 44:03
  bit
• 44:03
  of
• 44:03
  an
• 44:03
  art
• 44:03
  to
• 44:03
  it.
• 44:03
  And,
• 44:04
  you
• 44:04
  know,
• 44:04
  having
• 44:04
  that
• 44:04
  first
• 44:05
  one
• 44:05
  and
• 44:05
  the
• 44:05
  second
• 44:05
  one
• 44:06
  really
• 44:06
  helps
• 44:06
  with
• 44:06
  that
• 44:07
  ambiguity.
• 44:08
  Man,
• 44:08
  that
• 44:09
  is
• 44:09
  awesome.
• 44:09
  That
• 44:10
  is
• 44:10
  awesome.
• 44:10
  Well,
• 44:10
  Bob,
• 44:11
  we're
• 44:11
  running
• 44:11
  out
• 44:11
  of
• 44:12
  time,
• 44:12
  but
• 44:13
  I
• 44:13
  want
• 44:13
  to
• 44:13
  make
• 44:13
  sure

• 44:19
  foundation
• 44:20
  expert

  there.
• 44:20
  It's
• 44:21
  so
• 44:21
  refreshing
• 44:22
  to
• 44:22
  find
• 44:22

  helping
• 44:26
  out
• 44:26
  the
• 44:27
  consumer
• 44:28
  and
• 44:28
  the
• 44:28
  industry
• 44:28
  pros
• 44:29
  out
• 44:29
  there
• 44:29
  to

  be
• 44:30
  able
• 44:30

• 44:30
  this
• 44:30
  correctly.
• 44:31
  Right.
• 44:31
  That's
• 44:32
  my
• 44:32
  goal,
• 44:32
  is
• 44:32
  to
• 44:33
  try
• 44:33
  to
• 44:33
  help
• 44:33
  the
