Patch the stucco cracks and gaps on a Truslow Ave home's exterior

Hairline cracks in the stucco and gaps around pipe penetrations on this home let both water and conditioned air leak through the wall assembly -- a Materials/Energy petal repair the survey named but nobody has scheduled. Patching them now is cheap; leaving them means the air-sealing job upstream never actually holds. Standard: Weatherization + insulation/air-sealing upgrade readiness — the family-facing survey that turns a cold, drafty, expensive-to-heat home into a scoped, fundable weatherization package: air-sealing targets, insulation gaps by assembly (attic/wall/floor/rim), ventilation-after-tightening needs, and combustion-safety flags that must clear before any tightening. DOE Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) field practice + ENERGY STAR Home Upgrade + BPI combustion-safety-first sequencing, under the LBC Energy petal. Observation/planning only — insulation contracting, combustion testing, and utility-program enrollment route to qualified pros/agencies; SDG 7.3/13.2.

Walk the exterior with the occupant and mark every crack, gap, and pipe penetration; photograph each with a scale reference before touching it. 2. Clean loose material from each gap so the patch compound adheres. 3. Apply the appropriate patch compound or caulk sized to each gap (elastomeric caulk for hairline cracks, hydraulic cement for larger masonry gaps). 4. Tool the patch flush, let it cure per product instructions, and photograph the finished repair from the same vantage. Done when: before/after photos per gap + materials note + GPS

Pay
$95 proposed

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. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof
before/after photos per gap + materials note + 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. Typically 75–150 minutes. Method of record: Weatherization readiness survey (DOE WAP field practice + ENERGY STAR Home Upgrade; BPI combustion-safety-first sequencing; LBC Energy petal; observation/planning only)

Steps

  1. 1. Confirm scope with the household and record what they actually feel: the cold rooms, the drafts, the winter bill they want lower. Their comfort targets frame the package — this is their claim of a warmer home, not a generic energy audit.
  2. 2. Inventory the envelope by assembly with photos: attic insulation presence + approximate depth/R-level, accessible wall/floor/rim-joist insulation, window/door condition and weatherstripping, and visible bypasses (top plates, chases, recessed lights, attic hatch).
  3. 3. Trace drafts qualitatively (smoke pencil/incense at suspect points on a breezy day or with exhaust fans running) and rank the air-sealing targets; note that quantitative blower-door verification belongs to the weatherization contractor.
  4. 4. Screen combustion safety BEFORE tightening is planned: photograph each combustion appliance + venting, take a CO spot reading, and flag anything (orphaned water heater, corroded flue, suspected backdrafting) that a BPI-qualified pro must clear before ANY air-sealing proceeds.
  5. 5. Check moisture prerequisites: any active leak, bulk-water entry, or damp assembly gets sequenced ahead of insulation (never insulate a wet assembly), and note ventilation needs after tightening (bath/kitchen exhaust, fresh-air strategy).
  6. 6. Assemble the weatherization-readiness package: ranked air-sealing targets, insulation gaps by assembly with rough quantities, combustion-safety flags that gate the work, moisture prerequisites, ventilation-after-tightening notes, and the utility/WAP program paths the household may qualify for.
  7. 7. Enter photos, GPS/address, the assembly inventory, CO readings, and the readiness package; sign. Route combustion clearance to a BPI-qualified pro and installation to insured insulation contractors — the survey scopes, it never installs.

Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours, and signing costs nothing: no card, no deposit, no fee. An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.

Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
