Part 8/10:
A recurring concern is the persistent water seepage in the mudroom area, which threatens to create ongoing moisture problems. The homeowner discusses potential solutions, such as flashing, installing gutters, or building an additional drainage system, though the current foundation's rough construction complicates efforts. The goal is to prevent water from pooling and seeping into the house, especially during heavy rains.

There’s a sense of satisfaction in making tangible progress despite the mess and challenges.
