Escobar Associates, Inc. Canszslding Sdrxcdriral Engineers June 21, 2022 Mr. Dick Bergman 13930 Elmore Rd. Longmont, Colorado 80504 RE: 13930 Elmore Rd., Longmont, CO Dear Mr. Bergman, At your request, a representative from our office made a visit to the above referenced residence on 6/7/2022 to meet with you to discuss the cracks you have found in the exterior brick and concrete foundation walls. The structure is a one-story single-family house with an attached garage and has a basement. The house was built approximately in 1962 and appears to be conventional wood construction with wood exterior and brick veneer. The foundation walls arc concrete, the basement and garage floors are a concrete slab -on -grade. For purposes of this letter the front ofthe house faces generally west. During the time of our visit, the following was observed: Main: 1, There are cracks in the exterior brick walls. 2. The concrete foundation is deteriorating at some locations. Garage: 3. The floor slab has settled and slopes. 4. The brick veneer at the front and back has extensive cracking. 5. The roof over the garage is sagging due to settlement ofthe northeast section of the garage. Exterior: 6. The retaining walls at the walkout basement are leaning and cracks are visible. 7. The wood deck is leaning, and the various connections are in poor shape. The guardrail is all but missing. 8. Gutters are missing at some locations. 9. Downspouts are missing. 10. The grading is flat with various low spots against the house. Based on our visual observations noted above, it is our professional opinion that the cracks in the brick and in the concrete are caused by movement of the underlying soil. The garage and exterior slab movement also is caused by the soil movement. The sag in the garage roof is caused by distortion of the header and wall due to foundation movement. We recommend jacking up the garage roof and rebuilding a portion of the exterior wall after the foundations are 402 Man Street 22358.doc Longmont, Colorado 80501 TELE: (303) 678-5222 FAX: (303) 678-5225 underpinned and raised. The foundations of the house need to be underpinned where there is movement. The deteriorating concrete needs to be repaired and the soil chemically injected to help stabilized it to minimize movement to the stauetLire. The deck needs to be rebuilt. The exterior slabs need to be repaired or replaced, as well as the garage slab, The exterior grading needs to be adjusted to slope away from the house. Gutters and downspouts need to be added. Recommendations provided in this letter are conceptual in nature and are not intended for constnLetEon. It is important to understand that all homes require a certain amount of on -going maintenance in order to prolong the useful life of the structure and should be monitored from time to time to locate and control any slab, framing, or foundation movement before it affects the structure. It is also important to understand that expansive soils exist in Colorado and with changes in moisture content movement of the foundations, slabs, and structure can occur, sometimes causing damage. Therefore, there can be no guarantee as to the home's future performance. This letter of opinion should not be considered a warranty or guarantee, implied or expressed, of the structure in general, includin T but not limited to the building superstructure, slabs, foundations, and fixture performance of the structure. Structures including but not limited to their foundations and slabs may be affected severely by changes in climate, land use, drainage, soil moisture conditions, soil characteristics, and other Irxctors too numerous to list. Those structural components that were inaccessible or concealed by stored items, lack of access, inadequate access, or by material finishes such as gyp -board, drywall, plaster, ceilings and flooring could not be observed and were not evaluated and we make no comment on the condition of those components. The exterior grade was not evaluated and can be evaluated by a geo-technical engineer or civil engineer if you have concerns or need an opinion. The conclusions presented in this letter are based on the conditions observed during our visit. This letter is for use by the above named individual and is not to be used by arty other individuals and is not transferable, Our opinions and recommendations am subject to change based on new information as it becomes available to this office. Thank you for the opportunity to be of service. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely, dove 0. e;*.k. +1M ,‘.i-0,_.. G.A. Escobar Associates, Inc.
