Clear and reseal the basement window wells, Home on Pearl St (4500 block), Globeville (2026-07-17)

Basement window wells on this block fill with leaves, soil and cottonwood fluff until they hold standing water against the foundation wall and the window itself — a slow leak most residents never see until the sill rots. Standard: Existing-home envelope + drainage maintenance (gutter/downspout clearing, weep-screed and foundation-vent clearance, minor exterior envelope-crack sealing, dryer-vent lint clearance) — the entry-rung DIY-safe maintenance that keeps a home dry, pest-excluded and ready for the LBC Energy/Water petal work above it. DOE Weatherization Assistance Program envelope-maintenance practice + CPSC dryer-vent fire-safety guidance. SDG 11.1 (adequate, safe housing).

Photograph each window well as found (debris level, standing water, gravel condition, window-seal condition). 2. Remove debris and soil down to the gravel base by hand; bag it separately from yard waste. 3. Top up the gravel base for drainage and re-seat any loose well cover. 4. Re-caulk the window's exterior seal where cracked and photograph each well finished from the matching vantage. Done when: before/after photo pairs per well + gravel/seal confirmation + GPS

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–120 minutes. Method of record: Existing-home envelope + drainage maintenance (gutter/downspout clearing, weep-screed and foundation-vent clearance, minor exterior envelope-crack sealing, dryer-vent lint clearance) — the entry-rung DIY-safe maintenance that keeps a home dry, pest-excluded and ready for the LBC Energy/Water petal work above it.

Bring

ladder rated for gutter-line access (or a ground-level gutter-cleaning wand) + gloves
garden hose or gutter scoop + bucket for downspout flush
exterior-grade caulk/sealant + putty knife for minor envelope-crack sealing
flexible dryer-vent brush kit + shop vacuum for lint clearance
camera + GPS + tape measure

Steps

1. ASSESS: photograph each gutter run, downspout outlet, foundation weep screed/vent, exterior crack, and dryer-vent termination as found (debris, growth, buried screed, crack width, lint buildup).
2. Clear gutters and downspouts by hand or scoop, working from a stable ladder or ground-level tool; flush each downspout with water and redirect any outlet that discharges against the foundation to daylight at least 3 ft away.
3. Clear vegetation, mulch and debris from weep screeds and foundation vents so the wall assembly can drain and breathe; clean and prep any minor exterior envelope crack (non-structural, hairline to 1/4 in) and seal it with an exterior-grade sealant matched to the substrate.
4. Clear the dryer-vent duct run with a flexible brush kit from both the machine end and the exterior termination, and vacuum out the accumulated lint.
5. VERIFY: photograph each item from the matching before-vantage, pour a test cup of water down each cleared downspout to confirm flow, and confirm the dryer-vent damper opens and closes freely.

If it does not match the plan

Crack is wider than 1/4 in, stepped, or shows active movement -> STOP, do not seal, route to a licensed structural inspector.
Gutter-line access requires a ladder above 2 stories or a steep/wet roof -> route to a licensed/insured gutter contractor instead of DIY.
Weep screed or vent is buried under hardscape/grade that would require digging to expose -> document and route to a contractor rather than disturbing it.

What counts as done

Before/after photo pairs for every gutter run, weep screed/vent, crack and vent termination worked
Downspout water-flow test showing clear discharge routed away from the foundation
Dryer-vent damper opens/closes freely after clearing, with a lint-removal photo
No structural crack (wider than 1/4 in, stepped, or actively growing) sealed over — those route to a licensed inspector instead

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
