Caulk and weatherstrip the windows and doors.

This home's window and door frames have gapped, cracked caulk and worn weatherstrip, letting Texas Hill Country and Central Texas summer heat push straight into the living space and driving up the household's cooling bill.

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

homeowner/resident-permission record + before/after photos + sealed-count record + 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. 1. Walk the home's exterior window and door frames with the resident and photograph visible gaps, cracked caulk, or worn weatherstrip before starting.
2. 2. Remove failed weatherstrip and old, cracked caulk from the frame joints with hand tools only.
3. 3. Apply new caulk to the frame joints and install new weatherstrip at each window and door, working from ground level or a stable step stool only.
4. 4. Photograph the sealed frames from the matching before vantage and record the count of windows and doors sealed.

What counts as done

• Written or recorded permission from the resident
• Before photo of the gapped/failed weatherstrip and caulk
• Count of windows and doors sealed recorded
• After photo of the sealed frames

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

DIY Weatherization and Air Sealing. Air sealing is the cheapest energy work there is, and the Department of Energy has spent decades proving it: a tube of caulk and a roll of weatherstrip, placed where the cold actually comes in, beat almost any gadget you can buy. This standard keeps the work occupant-safe: no wiring, no combustion equipment, no disturbing old paint. Mastery looks like hands that can find a draft with a bare palm and close it for good. This packet is one home's worth of that: find the gaps, seal them, photograph the proof.
