Motronic posted:That's not a variance. Bedrooms have egress requirements. A window is not the only way to satisfy an egress requirement. The wrong type of window may not even count. Not the same degree of course, but I learnt this during my basement remodel. Where I am, a standard sliding patio door (with latch) does not satisfy an egress requirement, and instead needs to be a hinged door. In my case it mattered since there were height restrictions at the alternate exit that I needed to remediate to have a usable egress that satisfies all requirements. That or I'd have to buy a new door.

Reading an inspection report for a home my sister is looking at buying. And I quote: "House appears to have been tuck pointed using caulking which is not a typical repair." Ooof.

Computer viking posted:I think you're joking, but at the same time ... that really would have helped, wouldn't it? There are places that use drywall as a kind of sheathing for sheer force, similar to plywood in NA. I recall it in a Scott Brown video (New Zealander). The type of drywall and screw pattern are part of the inspection process.

Cement board shower enclosure that's been jointed with paper tape and drywall mud, across a wall that appeared to have had all of its studs cut out. The redguard was the least of their issues. Too late to fix any of it - they'd already done about half the shower walls.
