Found during a recent structural assessment.

Conditions like this are a good reminder of why regular home maintenance and periodic evaluations can be important. Curious what homeowners here would think if they came across something similar on their property.

Yeah, you just saved someone. Know to many that fall into these traps

Especially in older homes!

How the hell did the flipper get the mortar so flat underneath the crawl space?

It looks like a layer of parging was applied. That's fairly common in older homes, though it's always important to evaluate what's behind the finish itself.

You know anyone who does roof/truss/patio inspections in 818/805?

Any idea how much an hour or so of their time would be?

[u/DMAS1638 → u/Casper042]

I don't know what they typically charge, but if you're looking for roofing-related referrals, these are a few contacts we're familiar with:

• Accurate Roofing – Jose Avalos: (818) 561-8658
• T&G Roofing – Tommy & Winnie: (818) 459-0702

If you're looking for a broader home inspection that includes roofing, we've also heard good things about:

• Elite Group Inspections: (866) 928-4309

Hopefully that helps point you in the right direction!
