When you are parting for concrete and foundation, what are you really paying for?
$20,000 to $50,000 to fix a failed foundation.
But here's the part nobody tells you.
Once someone repairs it, you don't get a warranty on the whole foundation anymore. You only get one on the section they fixed. Everything else can still fail - and now it's on you.
That's why the engineer, the permits and the right company matter before the concrete goes down, not after.
From our 90-minute conversation with Artem from Archi Concrete Construction on what a foundation really costs and the 10 mistakes that show up years later.
Comment Foundation and I'll send you the link.
08/21/2026
In July 1975, a union plumber in America earned $9.77 an hour.
That sounds like poverty until you run it forward. In today’s money it’s $60.64.
The median plumber in America today makes $30.67.
I want to be careful here, because this is the part where most people stop reading and start arguing. So let me stack the deck against myself before you do. Take the lowest-paid region in the entire 1975 federal survey - Texas and its neighbors - and put it against today’s national median, which runs higher than Texas. Rig it in every direction.
Still down 42 percent.
Meanwhile the house that plumber worked on has never been more expensive to build. Construction costs now eat 64.4 percent of a new home’s sale price, the highest share since anyone started counting.
So the house costs more. The man in the crawlspace earns half. Somebody is getting the difference, and this is an attempt to find out who.
60%.
That's how many plan sets come back with something overlooked - and that's a professional's rate. He pulls 50-70 permits a month.
"There's always going to be something that pops up that was overlooked."
If a guy doing this full time sees 60%, the number for a first-time builder submitting alone is worse.
Plan for the comment letter. Don't hope against it.
Comment PERMITS and I'll send you the full episode with permit expediter Michael Kane plus a written summary.
