  • Yeah, it was a family who turned it into a rental when they moved out. Then it was eventually sold to an investment company who “remodeled”. I think the company was just a regular house flipper who did their own work. It’s weird, they did such a good job on a lot of things, and then the absolute worst job on random bits. I’m guessing they realized remodeling properly takes time and rushed the finishing touches to just get it sold. Luckily they left all of the supplies to fix what they messed up haha.



  • Yup, it’s an outside wall. That makes more sense about it being draft prevention! The outlet was loose so I just figured it was a way to get it supported. I’ll be replacing every outlet in the house asap. The house was built in the 80’s, so even if most outlets are fine, I’ll sleep better knowing there’s no 40+ year old outlets about to bite the dust.




  • Oh man, I guess I did just post and run haha. Life got in the way and I never ended up doing a proper fix. I just jacked it up a bit, and adjusted the pavers enough so that it’s not resting on the wedges. Eventually I want to move it and pour some concrete posts like someone else mentioned. Hopefully I have time this fall to do this, and my “temporary” fix doesn’t become permanent. The ambitious side of me wants to tear down the shed and rebuild, since it wasn’t built that well, but that’s probably never going to happen.
