    Is this urgent?

    I think it was a 3 tab shingle. I have no idea it is like halfway up my moderately steep roof. I haven’t noticed a leak. It looks like a blacks substance was beneath the shingle but it’s hard to tell since it’s high up

    Is this urgent?

    Hi everyone, in the process of getting a new roof. So a roofer evaluated my house and while he was on the roof a shingle fell off. It might be 2-3 months (hopefully tops before o get a new replacement roof) is it okay to leave a missing shingle this long? It rains a fair amount. Thanks all

    Does this need fixed?

    How would I know if it’s a hidden leak to a wood floor? It looks like the toilet bowl water is never refilling is that a sign it isn’t leaking? And I stuck the toothpick in the very small crack and it’s not deep at all

    Does this need fixed?

    Thanks for the response. I didn’t notice an obvious leak at all? It looks like the small crack isn’t deep at all I used a toothpick for measure and it’s maybe like 1/16th of an inch deep. I am on a wood framed floor system.

    Does this need fixed?

    Hi all, I noticed the inside of my toilet bowl had a small crack. No water has been leaking in the bathroom. Just wondering if this is cosmetic or needs an immediate fix?

    Basement

    Hello, I’m trying to figure out what material the inside of my basement wall is? I’m guessing concrete? The house is brick on the outside but from the pictures when it rains really hard I can feel the concrete is wet on the inside of the basement thanks all

    Is this cosmetic?

    Hi all, cleaning my gutters and noticed a horizontal crack. Does it appear pretty normal? should I just monitor it? It’s close to the roof of the house maybe 6” away

    What does this mean?

    Hi all, it’s a bit difficult to see but I noticed my roof isn’t completely flat it has a bit of a curve (upward) by the bathroom? What does this mean?

    Annoying!

    Ugh I think I might have squirrels in the attic... I hear stuff running back and forth all the time the in the walls. I noticed some really odd and disgusting yellow spots to. Not sure if this is evidence of it? How much to get rid of these creatures possibly

    Is this a big deal?

    Does it look “dangerous” ? What would My next immediate step be and could this wait a bit to get fixed?

    Is this a big deal?

    It’s the chimney outside. Like I said it’s been like this probably for 5-10 years but possibly getting worse

    Is this a big deal?

    Hi all, general thoughts on this area? I know it needs repaired but is it dangerous? It’s been like this for awhile but possibly getting slightly worse. Estimated cost? thanks!

    What to do? Is this normal?

    Thanks for the response! Would making this look better cosmetically be expensive? Or fixing the openings from inside/outside? The home inspector was pretty impressed structurally with the house. He said having brick is great which made me feel much better

    What to do? Is this normal?

    I’m just showing the basement walls. You can kinda tell the light from the living room shines down into the basement. A home inspection was done and I pointed this out to the insepector. He wasn’t too concerned at all and said it just looked like the baseboards are missing
  19. R

    What to do? Is this normal?

    No idea when or why the baseboards came off. The basement floor is concrete. I was just worried because I can see some brick from the inside but not all parts. I just didn’t know if it was abnormal to see the basement from the living room. I don’t know if you can tell but it looks like some...
