Seal the drafts.

Lake County has some of the oldest and most weather-worn housing in California and some of its lowest household incomes, so leaky doors and windows cost the people least able to pay both summer cooling and winter heat. A one-visit sealing pass on an invited home cuts both bills with a kit's worth of materials.

Pay

$180 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 — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

Before/after photos of every sealed point

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. Confirm the invitation and locate drafts with the occupant at doors, windows, and pipe penetrations.
2. Photograph each leak point before sealing.
3. Install weatherstrip, door sweeps, and outlet gaskets, and caulk fixed gaps at trim.
4. Confirm doors and windows still open and latch.
5. Photograph each sealed point with date and address block.

What counts as done

• Before photos of at least 4 leak points with GPS and date
• After photos of the same points sealed
• Materials list per point

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.
