Seal the door and window drafts.

Colton's older housing stock north of the rail corridor leaks conditioned air through worn door gaps and single-pane window frames. Summer cooling bills hit hardest on the fixed-income households that can least afford them. An afternoon of weatherstrip, sweeps, and caulk cuts the bill and keeps rail-corridor dust out of the house.

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-and-after photos of sealed doors and windows

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 with painter's tape.
2. Install weatherstrip on leaking door jambs and window sashes.
3. Fit exterior door sweeps where daylight shows at thresholds.
4. Caulk approved fixed gaps at window trim.
5. Photograph each sealed opening with GPS and date and list the work done.

What counts as done

• Before photos of marked gaps
• After photos of installed seals with GPS and date
• List of openings sealed

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.
