Calcium based ice melts are horrible on cement.

Currently there is vinyl installed and would be looking to have it removed and fiber cement installed.

It was made of wood (real wood, not wood look cement board) and was for around $180 a month for 3 years.

Get them fired & have the satification of two-fold revenge: evicted & fired lol*Im not an attorney and this not legal advice* That is a great way to finally get possession and find cement in your toilets and drains as well !

@Heather Wingenbach  This should help: http://fhahandbook.com/appraisal-guidelines.phpPay special attention to peeling paint (even a little bit), loose hand rails, cracked or broken glass, crumbly cement steps, etc. 

I should have mentioned that the foundation is part fieldstone and part cement block. 

I've heard of it being done in a steel mill water reclamation system where the original cast iron piping was rotting out inside of cement floors etc due to the corrosive/leeching by incoming low pH waste water.

There's a lot of room in that sentence for underwriter's discretion and that's where they get to make up their own rules and cement them with precedence.Stephanie

This will require new cement footings etc.

I’ve actually been “lurking” on the site for a few months while doing some more research and cementing my goals but figured it was time to make an introduction.
