 All the water damage around your apartment window is not coming from that gutter or downspout. Sure, looking at the downspout right outside the window can lead us to believe that the moisture is coming from here. I assure you, this is not it! The gutter are flooding and creating a water fall just outside the window every measurable rain but this isn't it either. That water cascades over the top and falls to the ground. It may be causing a problem below but not this window. This drywall damage around the window is coming from some other source.So where is the water coming from whenever it rains?Until I look at it specifically I can not pinpoint it exactly but I do know that the roof is leaking. This is an upstairs window with no plumbing lines in the ceiling. The gutter and downspout ar...

 It only floods when it rains!  The last rains were very welcome in our dry state, lake levels have started to move up a bit. There is also the deferred maintenance that become evident after such rainfalls: gutters overflowing, leaking windows, and poor drainage are a few.  This drainage problem was brought to my attention recently, they told me it only happens when it rains. That makes sense to me but let's find the problem and fix it so that people can use the walkways when the rains come. Surely there is a drain grate somewhere nearby.

  You never know what is behind that bad siding being replaced.     We had a few areas of siding repair to do today on the side of an apartment building. As we pulled off the first piece of lap siding we found a large section of the wall packed with animal droppings. On closer inspection, it turned out to be the droppings of bats. There was quite a bit, we think that a specialist needs to be called on this discovery.

    Sometimes you have to build it to repair it.     When it comes to siding repair, window replacement, and even painting you have to create a working platform to do the job. Scaffolding is the safest and quickest way to do that. The idea of building something to repair something is something that many do not consider when getting an estimate of costs.

  Choices seem to be limited with the precast concrete fences.   I have seen these precast concrete fences in many apartment communities, shopping centers and office building throughout the Sacramento region and thought that it would be fairly simple to repair them. Since the product is sold in pieces, it would be just a matter of finding the manufacturer and get some. So I went to the site to view the job and got a chance to see the damages and get an idea as to how they were constructed. It is when things have been broken or damaged that we get a chance to see how it was build. These concrete walls consist of some basic designs that, on a lighter scale, resemble a child’s construction toys. The precast concrete structure that I saw consisted of concrete columns with these precast conc...
