Thread: Why I can't go fishin :(

So my house had a 500ft 3&1/2 season sun porch. Started as a deck built on grade... then someone closed it in. Then someone else poured a concrete cap over the in-ground pool. Well that left a step down from the deck/porch and a step up onto the giant patio/pool. So somone else poured 6.5" of concrete to level thing off. They poured this over a drain tile running the length of the porch and directed the water from the 800sq ft patio directly into the floor of the porch.

The previous owner did a hack repair job which I thought was only from termite damage... I installed vinyl not knowing water was flowing across the floor.
My wife stepped through the moldy floor earlier this year.

So since I'm laid off and the job hunt was not going anywhere fast I've been doing this. This was built with no footings except some piers for the deck. The walls were wrong. The vinyl windows were bad. The roof is funny but not bad. Contractors wanted 70k the fix it right. This is my compromise. To avoid permits I'm doing a repair. I doubt I could get anything to pass code. My new floor is now raised and on more than 12" of concrete.
