A little gravel goes a long way...

Idiots, idiots, idiots...

This is a quick blog - frustration is high...

I think HZG needs a vacation - or in need of refreshing clientele...

I ran into a builder that said, "We don't need gravel on the footer tile...code doesn't require it." Gravel is an excellent water diffuser - and will help prevent hydrostatic pressure. Damp proofing, waterproofing...it's only as good as the drainage down the wall.

This builder states that he's not worried. I'm drying to prevent future issues...however I will gladly take his money and say (in parenthesis)..."I told you so..."
