Kim Fuentes,
Enclosed please find (3) copies of the Miller residence resubmission package. Due to existing
conditions of the existing dwelling, the contractor is not able to replace the existing foundation in
intervals as previously specified.
In order to maintain the existing dwelling, we will need to lift the house and pour a new
foundation. We will need to bring the foundation up to code, which will lift the current finished
first floor 2’-0” higher. This will also prevent future rotting @ the floor joists, as the current floor
joists are sitting only 6” above grade.
We have specified to parge the exposed foundation walls & to reuse the existing corner stones
where possible. The clients are planning on planting around the house, as to hide majority of the
exposed foundation walls.
Please feel free to reach out to Ashley at Ashley@PowersHancockDesign.com / 631-703-0800.
Best, Regards,
Ashley Hancock
