Seal drafts in an invited older Fairfield home before summer heat and winter wind.

The older blocks around downtown Fairfield and Armijo were built long before energy codes, and their gaps leak expensive heated and cooled air all year. Fairfield summers now push well past 100°F, and leaky homes are the ones whose cooling bills hurt most. Sealing is the cheapest first fix.

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 sealed openings with checklist

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. Walk the home with the occupant and mark drafts at doors, windows, and pipe penetrations.
2. Apply weatherstrip to door jambs and operable windows, and caulk fixed gaps under 1/4 inch.
3. Fit door sweeps on exterior doors with daylight showing at the threshold.
4. Re-check each opening and note remaining items that need a licensed contractor.
5. Photograph each sealed opening and the completed checklist.

What counts as done

• Before and after photos of at least three sealed openings
• Photo of the dated checklist
• GPS-tagged photo at the home with occupant consent noted

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.
