Reseal the exterior wood trim.

The condition survey found Dodson House and Restaurant's exterior wood trim weathering under the Valley's intense summer sun and occasional heavy rain; resealing the confirmed bare/primed wood protects the historic material from further sun and moisture damage.

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 + surface-prep confirm (no paint removal) + sealant product/coats log + GPS

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.

Bring

• hydraulic floor jacks rated to the structural load
• laser level / string line + floor-elevation survey tape
• pressure-treated shims and/or new concrete/steel piers per engineer spec
• moisture meter (source-control check before closing the work)
• camera + tablet for the elevation survey and photo log

Steps

1. 1. Verify the licensed foundation-repair contractor's structural plan and permit; photograph the crawlspace access, existing piers/beams, and any moisture source (standing water, plumbing leak, poor grading) before work.
2. 2. Run a floor-elevation survey (laser level grid) and mark the low points against the structural plan; record every reading.
3. 3. The licensed crew sets jacks, relevels beams to the plan's target elevation, and replaces or shims piers per the engineer's spec -- never load beyond the rated jack capacity.
4. 4. Correct the moisture source found in step 1 (grading, downspout redirect, or vapor barrier per the crawlspace's condition) so the releveling isn't undone by the next wet season.
5. 5. Re-survey the floor elevation to confirm it meets the plan's target, verify door/window operation upstairs, and photograph the finished piers/beams and crawlspace.
6. 6. Pass the local building-permit inspection where required; enter the before/after elevation survey, permit reference, and photos into the proof record; sign it.

What counts as done

• Before photo of the weathered trim
• Confirmation the surface is bare/primed wood cleared by park facilities -- no paint scraping or removal on this rung
• Sealant/stain product and coat-count log matched to the historic-appropriate finish specified by park facilities
• After photo of the resealed trim

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
