First, foundation, then roof (sound familiar?) then
Thanks. Home was built slab on grade. Has fairly new asphalt type shingles on roof.
I'm over 1K miles away from the property & trying to learn as much as I'm able through pictures & a previous inspection report. Report states some evidence of Powder Bore Beatles in some interior logs. I'm waiting for a call from the pest inspector. Chinking looks like it might be concrete? Don't know for sure. I do know that concrete & wood should not meet.
Electrical is two-prong on the outlets. Plumbing is a mix of galvanized, copper & plastic.
House looks nice in the pictures, but they usually do, until you arrive in person...
