The carpenters are busy downstairs. I am sitting at my dining room table on the computer. The southwest corner of my dining room DROPPED -the floor moved, the walls moved.
I heard the carpenter come upstairs and into the dining room, "Did you see it move?"
I answered from the living room, in the stable part of the house where I moved in about 1.2 seconds... "Yup, I saw that!"
They are "dropping" the mid section of my house while raising the edge, above the foundation. This section of my house was described to me as a floppy tortilla, high in the middle with edges that droop.
My house is only (only) a couple inches off level. Friends told me of a newish home in a high end development 12" off level. I don't feel so bad when I hear that. I just don't sit above the posts and beams they are working on...

Oh my gosh! I bet that was startling, to say the least! I like the "floppy tortilla" comparison.
Speak to us....
