I think we pissed off the neighbor...
What happens here
Perform a final walkthrough to confirm that all aspects of the drainage system are correctly installed and the site meets expectations. A key part of this check is verifying that the foundation's weep holes (wicks) are still fully exposed above the newly graded ground. Clear any straw blanket or debris that might have inadvertently covered them. This ensures that the foundation can continue to breathe effectively, preventing future moisture issues and confirming the success of the grade lowering and drainage installation. This final check represents a crucial 'post-installation inspection' to ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the system.
Goal: Conduct a final check of the installed system, specifically ensuring that the foundation's weep holes remain exposed after all grading and finishing touches. This is a critical quality assurance step to confirm proper foundation ventilation and effective drainage.
