    Great video. I've just discovered a whole lot of rotten joist and subfloor from a leaking hot water heater. Water was going under a linoleum flooring and not apparent until the floor started to sag. I'm going to have to do this same thing to an end wall in the kitchen. I knew how to sister the 2x4 studs in but the 2x8 cross brace was what I was wondering. Wasn't sure how to support the whole wall while pulling out the sill/rim joist. This helps SO MUCH.

    Question.
    Ill start out with the my bottomline question.
    Can water “wick up” the height of two rows of concrete blocks with a cap block to be absorbed by the sill plate and outer band board?
    My foundation blocks are 2 rows high plus the cap block. This is the lowest side of the house and is on the higher side of the house footprint . I built it in 1977.
    The sill plate and outer 2x10 band board are wet from time to time to the point of molding.
    The crawlspace is relatively dry.
    I see no visible way for water intrusion form the roof, window or siding on that wall side
    The sill plate sits directly on the cap block.
    Your videos are great.
    Thank you so much.
    I have no idea how to watch for your reply…but ill try.

      Moisture can wick up the blocks, however it shouldn't be enough to soak the boards unless they are constantly wet. A barrier between the blocks and wood is always a good thing, however not always feasible. I would dig into it further looking for ways that water is getting in behind the siding. Is there house wrap under the siding? Is it lap siding? Are the overlaps tight? What is the roof pitch above the wet areas and are there gutters? If gutters are present are they over flowing? Rain water splash up is a big concern and something that needs to be controlled. You can always send pictures to my email detroitdiyvideos@gmail.com
      Thanks for watching.

    I need to know what kind of person to call for this exact work. My house in ohio is the same exact way with a house built on a deck with no foundation and rotten rim joist. Do not want to tempt this myself unfortunately

      Find a well versed handyman in your area. If not, you will need a contractor that can do masonry or sub it out to a Mason. Just going to be a bunch of phone calls.
