Lay a moisture barrier under a dried-out Pajaro home.

Under many Pajaro homes the crawl space soil sits close to the floor joists, and ground moisture keeps wicking up through bare dirt even after a home has fully dried from the storm. A plastic vapor barrier laid flat over the confirmed-dry crawl space floor stops that moisture from creeping back into the floor above.

Pay

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.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Confirm with the host that the crawl space has been fully dried and has no standing water.
2. Roll out and overlap the vapor barrier sheeting across the bare soil floor.
3. Seal the seams and tape the edges to the foundation wall.
4. Photograph the finished barrier with GPS and date.
5. Note the square footage covered in the work record.

What counts as done

• Before photo of bare soil floor
• After photo of sealed barrier with GPS/date
• Host confirmation the crawl space was already dry

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.
