| 2009-11-09 | Alan | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks, Ed. I appreciate the timely answer and advice. |
| 2009-10-30 | Rebecca | 9 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Ed, Thanks very much for your very quick reply. I'll seal up that gap. Since the porch is covered and we have gutters, the only time water really gets in is when I ran the hose (which I almost never do). The termite inspector saw no evidence of moisture, so I may be ok for now. Thanks again for your help. |
| 2009-10-23 | Terri | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you, Ed for the information and the incredibly quick response! I'll try this method and let you know how it works for me. Kindest regards, Terri |
| 2009-10-21 | Cindy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you Ed! |
| 2009-10-20 | Ellen | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Timely and very helpful answer. Thanks so much! |
| 2009-10-14 | lora | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Finished fill the gap per your instructions and it looks great. It rained the other day and it was so nice not to see the rain draining into the crack. Thanks for the advice. |
| 2009-10-09 | Miel | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you :) Miel |
| 2009-10-05 | Spencer | 9 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Ed Please allow me to thank you for your prompt and detalied response. Your answer was very thorough and easily understood. As I am sure you are aware. if you ask three people the same question you will get three answers. Your opinion is at the top of the my list in the amount of weight it carries. As I am sure you can understand my reluctance to undo what my son and I (mostly my son) have done. My final decision will come either by mother nature or hopefully I will find documented statistics on the correct procedure to correct my problem. Once again, thanks Spencer |

| 2009-09-23 | Edward | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks for the speedy reply and the very welcome answer to my questions. I appreciate the qualifications for use of silicone sealant on the inside, only if the outside does not get sprayed with water. I was planning to visit a hardware store tomorrow, so the timing was perfect. Yes, humidity is my only concern. Kindest regards, Edward |

| 2009-09-06 | Terry | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | The experts communication was concise, clear and made good sense to me. Much like having a conversation with a good friend who has expert knowledge on a subject matter and who doesn't mind being candid and to the point. |
