Thanks Andy https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif I actually like it more than I thought I would. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif It handles just like a car, yet can hold tons of crap with the seats down. It has a sporty sound to the exhaust and has an auto tranny that can be manually shifted. It still needs a set of 20 inch Sport Techno wheels to set it off. The best part is that I got a promotion last month that more than covers the lease payment...so in essence, it was free https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Do not take this situation lighly. I'm a GC and these types of defects can turn out to be real problems down the road. Document this with your Builder, get a copy of the warranty from the " Water Proofer " . They typically offer 2 or 3 grades of service/warranties. There are all sorts of variables that need to looked at that 1 picture can't answer. How high is the water table, is the drain tile on the inside or outside of the wall. Different areas have diiferent requirements. This is the best time to address this - verus once the area is finished . If you have any other questions give me a call 630-730-2600. Carl

Thanks Carl and Dave for the email! I went back again tonight after work and climbed down into the trench. The honeycoming is about 11 inches by 6 inches wide in this patch and is about 1/2 an inch to 3/4 inch deep in the worst areas. The foundation walls are 10 inches thick. I'm going to call our local building inspector to see what he says should be done to remedy this. They should be pouring my foundation this week...so my fingers are crossed!!! Thanks again to all who responded https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
