Here’s my best power hitter so far. Anything I should be working on him that I’m lacking?

They filled it with pea gravel concrete on Friday.

I bought up that they left out the vertical rebar at the corners and the horizontal ladders on Saturday. I was reassured they used fiber in the block fill so no ladders needed. But that they would check with the structural engineer on Monday about what to do about the missing vertical bar at the corners.

Now I’m no mason…but this seems 🫣

8/31 - First update: Got a motion notification on my cam just before 7 this morning. Pulled it up and it was a laborer out there mixing mortar. I immediately called the GC and told him someone was out there and to stop all work immediately. He said they weren’t supposed to be out there and thanks for letting him know. We’re all meeting in site at 10am this morning.

2nd update: Another guy has shown up with a woman and 3 toddlers and is now helping.

3rd update: SEOR is in the ER right now post tonsillectomy bleeding. Meeting for 10am is still on minus him.

4th update: Met on site with the GC and block sub and chewed their asses for 20 minutes. They are going to demo all of it and start over. I contractually have to give them a chance to fix the issues. If things are not fixed in 10 days then they are off this job and contract is terminated.

5th update: Demo crew has arrived on site. I’ll update once the new stem wall is up. Likely next week sometime.

9/7 update: Rebuild is underway and looking much better this time. They’re about halfway done.

I just had this cricket installed to fix a leak coming in around my chimney. Does this look properly installed to you? I don’t know much about roofing but it seems to me that water could come in underneath the metal?

I posted a couple days ago about a repair job and got quite the respose. Since then the company came back and tried again. Once again I went up and checked the work and took several photos.

The original repair was to remove a satalite dish and patch the holes.

EDIT

I'm getting alot of comments thinking this is a joke, ragebait or that I am "up vote farming" so as stated in a couple comments here's some context

Its a long story. I hired a legit company with good google reviews. When the estimator showed up it happened to be an acquaintance to my surprise. I got an official quote via email but than when I thanked him and told him I would go ahead and sign it and send it in, he told me he will take care of all the office stuff and handle it himself. I figured he was representing a good company and it'd all work out. I dont know if this job was done through the company or if he stole it as a side job thinking he could get away with it because he knows me. After the disaster he created the first time I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and reached back out to tell him he needs to do a better job. Now I am in a situation where if I reach out to the company he will surely be in big shit and I can't bring myself to do that to him. That's why I gave him another chance to fix his work before calling the company and explaining everything that had happened, but obviously at this point I dont have much choices.

So long story short Im not an idiot, I dont know much about roofing so I hired a legit company but now because this clown showed up and I have a heart, I am stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Hopefully this guy sticks around this fall.

it’s a disaster.

roast it please

Also; I know close to nothing about decks but I just know this is shit, I guess anyone could but if someone could point out the exact specifics and how bad it actually is, that’d be great. Is it safe? Will it hold or is it just cosmetic?
