I got hands-on with the demolition work, blacktop for the driveway and cement work for the sidewalks and porch.

Once the street expansion begins three of the mobiles will need to be moved forward.This does not seem like a huge deal but I'm trying to include everything.Several of the pads need work-the cement is broken up.I believe the owner fired the manager so this could be a problem. 

Upkeep of the homes on the street, and one block each way on the street.How burred inside a byzantinian tract of roads is it from the main road.Is there freeway or jet or railroad noise.Do the driveways have good cement in the area, or is it all fractured.Does the neighborhood look like a forest or can you see the houses from the road clearly. 

Everything should be based on firm milestones, like demo, passed rough in, cement board hung and waterproofed, tile complete, etc.

It looks like yours was an exterior wall where the brick stops and the cement block starts.                     

That stuff is HARD and has a high cement content.  

I noticed it was big in Australia when there a year ago & we have aging cement stucco on our home in FL.But when I started to look into it this is what I found....https://www.facworld.com/facworld.nsf/doc/stuccoso I just repair & repaint our olde cement stuff when needed.good luck

You may think striking a deal with these guys is a one-way ticket to swimming with cement shoes and alligator infested swamps.

If its dark tile and light grout use epoxy grout which doesnt stain like cement based grouts do.Always seal your cementeous grouts.

Unfortunately, being that grout is a cement-like product, a cured layer and new layer will not usually adhere properly, causing the new grout to flake off over time.
