to build the home, they first built the floor, with crapeting, then put the exterior walls, then interior walls. I don't really have a problem with that. what I couldn't believe is that they ran the 70's shag carpet to the outer edge of the floor, then put the walls on top. this caused a leak in the siding to wick its way in, and hold the moisture. end result, it caused way more damage than it should have, a soft spot near the door spread to a ruined rim joist and damaged floor edge running over 15'. all that just to avoid buying a tack strip.

does this type of thing still go on?
