Clear and repair the rain gutters on a ranch-style home on an agricultural-zoned lot, the 1400 block of W Poppy St.

Older housing on the 1400 block of W Poppy St in Compton's Richland Farms neighborhood carries decades of clogged, sagging or disconnected rain gutters. Every winter storm that overshoots a clogged gutter drives water straight down the foundation instead of away from it: the cheapest, most repeatable first step toward a dry, weather-tight home.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

before/after photo pairs per gutter run + flow-test video + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Photograph every gutter run and downspout on a ranch-style home on an agricultural-zoned lot as found: note sagging sections, disconnected joints, and clogged/overflowing spots.
2. Clear leaves, debris and granules from the gutter troughs and downspout mouths by hand from a stable step-ladder on level ground (spotter recommended above 6 ft, never step onto the roof).
3. Re-seat or re-fasten any sagging hangers and reseal leaking joints with gutter sealant; confirm downspouts route water at least 3 feet from the foundation.
4. Flush each downspout with a hose and photograph the clear flow from the same vantage as the before photo.

What counts as done

• Before photo of each gutter run/downspout showing the clog or damage
• After photo of the cleared, resealed gutter and downspout from matching vantage
• Flow-test photo/video showing water exiting the downspout freely away from the foundation

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Weatherization Readiness. Weatherization readiness is the survey that turns a cold, expensive-to-heat home into a fundable plan. Following the Department of Energy's program, the surveyor maps where the house leaks air, which attics and walls lack insulation, what fresh-air path must follow the tightening, and which safety checks must clear first. Mastery looks like a walkthrough that ends with a package a weatherization crew can price without a second visit. This packet is one piece of one such survey, done carefully and written down, so a real family's real house gets closer to warm.
