Fund it for $780. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
$780 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.
Open, but not claimable yet. restricted: regulated — Regulated or permit-required work cannot be claimed on this rail yet. It stays readable; voting and pledging are free, and funding is separate from claiming.
What the work involvesThe readiness survey found this depot's original balloon-frame walls essentially uninsulated -- open stud bays running floor to roofline lose heat straight through the siding all winter. Dense-packing insulation into the cavities from small drilled access points closes that gap while leaving the historic siding and interior finish undisturbed, a distinct envelope layer from attic or facade-seal work.
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- caulk gun + backer rod
- low-expansion spray-foam sealant (fire-rated where required)
- storm window/door kit or rigid-foam rim-joist batts
- heat-tape + pipe-insulation sleeves (freeze-protection runs)
- camera
- tape measure + utility knife
Steps
- 1. Confirm the scope with the occupant/facility manager against the readiness survey's ranked target list (or a fresh walk if none exists); photograph the untreated bypass, window, rim-joist run or pipe run.
- 2. Prep the surface: clean and dry the substrate, remove failed old caulk or weatherstripping, and clear any debris blocking the install.
- 3. Install the sealing/insulation material to the target's spec -- storm window/door, spray-foam bypass seal, rim-joist rigid-foam batt, or heat-tape plus pipe-insulation sleeve -- per manufacturer instructions.
- 4. Verify the result (smoke-pencil/hand check for bypass work, fit-and-lock check for storm windows/doors, continuous-coverage check for rim-joist or pipe insulation) and photograph the finished install from the same vantage.
- 5. Note any combustion-safety or moisture flag surfaced during the install and route it to a BPI-qualified pro before continuing to the next target.
What counts as done
- Before photos showing the drilled access-point layout mapped to stud-bay locations
- Fill-density log per bay (material type, lbs/cu ft target, fill confirmation via sound/resistance)
- After photos of each access point patched and finished to match the historic siding
- Thermal-camera spot-check photos at 2+ bays confirming fill (no cold streaks)
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not.
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788288423425_ngezrh3","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
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.
