Remodeling an old house. Had the foundation leveled by a contractor that has been leveling and passing inspections for 25 years. Our city hired a consulting service from out of town. He failed this inspection. He said the pier & beam foundation must meet requirements for footing, in the 2003 IRC or provide an engineer letter stating structure is secure.. He stated that the cement blocks ( and there are a lot of them) or not sufficient. All of this towns pier & beams are either sitting on cement blocks or old cedar stumps. I contacted my contractor and he is also puzzled. He stated that he has never had a problem with this.So are all inspectors on the same page?? Or can I request a second inspection. And hopefully get the inspector that has been passing all of the rest of these inspections. I really can't afford to spend anymore money on this foundation.... Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
