| The front dig out for supporting of concrete beams in front |
 |
| 5-6 foot deep trenches under which supports are driven to stabilize under chimney (to prevent future settling) |
 |
| The start of piles of dirt removed from under the house to permit work on new piers. |
 |
| The floor under window sagged 6 inches down due to rotted joists from decades of water damage and poor drainage. Discovered rotted joists were propped up with bricks that gave way when I moved in in August 2019; On the upswing, original floor is level and has life ahead. |
