Anything wrong in these pics pt.2 15 years 1 month ago #8253

Different subject, same house.  What do you see and what would you tell your clients?

Aside from foundation, support for joists, support for plumbing, lack o' strapping, and overall joinery, there isn't much to say.  What did you tell your folks?  Looks like the new wine in the old bottle didn't do well...  I've heard that before somewhere...

You should try not to be too picky...    ;)

The black tubing that you see in the pic is a product called high density polyethylene (HDPE).  It is ok for use as a service type feed but not as a branch feed line.  Also have to love those clamps;)  This house was a disaster!

I had HDPE as my service line coming into a previous house.  It popped under the house.  Big deal - we were up a cul-de-sac pipe stem driveway and a long way from the street.  Had to run a new line.  Big bummer...

Robert - I have never seen that used as supply lines inside a house!  THAT must have been a fun inspection!
