Said we have a very well built house built right. Good to know. He said we’ll be fine until he can get our shingles ordered. I’m going to have a bit of a wait for the lanai door. Gutter guy is coming next week to replace a couple of soffits and one downspout. I’m not even bothering with the fence. I’ll put up some foliage or something back there. The landscape people are coming out next week. That’s most of our damage. We have power, water (not potable yet but should be by the time I get back home Saturday) and we’ll have internet service Monday. That’s it. Internet? Yay. You can get Flo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of report did your home inspector give you before buying the home? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 That’s great news. What’s the house history? I remember reading after Andrew that many of the houses that made it were Habitat for Humanity built because where a professional builder would put one nail, an unsure volunteer might drop three in.

It’s a new build. Same builder as my house in Aurora which was a great house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhhh fall in my fair home state of Tennessee. The gentle color of the falling leaves, the wildlife in their preparation for the 9 days of winter we will get.

Terri Schehr Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We have clean water now. So does Cape Coral. My local Publix was a little picked over but I was able to get everything I needed. Neighborhood looks like we were bombed. It’s going to take some time. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
