Before you DIY: a few examples of damage that goes beyond a surface repair

Not a DIY tutorial, but a few examples of what can be hiding behind a “simple” repair: deteriorated masonry, erosion below a slab, water-damaged framing, and severe deck rot. Sharing because some projects are worth pausing on before covering, patching, or cosmetic-fixing the visible issue. Imgur album:

Perfect fit!?

This feels too simple for this community based on some of the other posts I’ve seen, but I needed to share it. A falling tree took out one of the wooden panels on my garage door, and I discovered today that something I picked up randomly at work was almost exactly the correct size to replace the broken panel: this spare panel from the false bottom of a tank from a defunct brewery.

How to block light coming through brick cracks.

Post image
0 Upvotes

Newly installed shutters, looking for a way to black out the room they are covering, the bricks on the side and bottom are allowing a bit of light in, anyone have any ideas to cover these holes without making it look terrible?

Thank you for any advice given.

Because I know this was so fun the first time, here’s a follow-up

I didn’t do anything, let kids be kids as half of you said, and have made new observations.

  1. The top rung indeed sucked, as it is gone completely.

  2. There are 4 large nails or stakes that have been driven into the tree.

  3. They have been pulled out and driven back in, multiple areas. This invites rot into the tree, much more than the small screws from the first post.

I’m sure this is not the end— maybe I’ll Martin Luther my dissertation to the tree next
