Hello! Can you please let me know your thoughts on the condition of the brick foundation in this old home in Alameda? The house sits on a brick foundation. There is a finished basement about a foot subterranean on a concrete slab. On 3 outside sides of the house(except back) there is a parge coat, and on the left side they built a concrete buttress against the brick. We have very limited access to inspect the brick from the inside as the basement is finished and foundation is encased. We were able to get under the stairs and saw a concrete cap on a small section of the brick. The mortar on the brick appears to be sandy. https://photos.app.goo.gl/sw3Eot4aczNkAS2g9

00F877C4-98B0-48F9-9200-87CB06BE50B4.MOV I live in a rented bungalow that is family owned. Three contractors later, several thousands of dollars either wasted or stolen, I have decided that the job is never going to be done, but a girl needs a bathroom. Upon the exit of the last horses arse building (non)professional, who managed to sheetrock over his handiwork in a hurry, implore you all to see why I opened up the walls and floor to see what the hell the “new subfloor and bathroom” were actually built like, and oh, the horrors...how can I go forward? I have my plan, which does not include lighting a match or moving just yet. 00F877C4-98B0-48F9-9200-87CB06BE50B4.MOV handiwork from hell
