Building additions and houses in the philly area for over 30 years...Next time you're setting up block for laying; have a few guys going from the block to each spot. Swing each block to the next guy...Saves your back...Laborers, ran well, save a lot of wear and tear...You guys are lucky...Here, we need 12 Inch Semi solid up to grade...Also, when parging in the outside, run mud on the footer with a pitch so you don't get wash out between the footer and the block...before you seal coat it... The block guys were good mechanics....

How can it be that the home owner in this case when the existing house was built on a full basement (window) and visible above ground level. don't you then choose during the extension to (for almost no increased cost) dig a little deeper and let you build a 14 block high foundation wall so that you can get (double area) with 9' interior ceiling height in the basement level? Hard to understand that one misses that opportunity for only slightly more expensive (work and more concrete hollow blocks) for double area in the finished extension?

I'm just across the Lake O from here. Couple of things I noticed are different. Have you got 4 foot frost cover from finished grade to underside of footings? You parged, but no damp proofing (tar)? Was that an oversight? I've noticed in several videos done around north eastern US that you pin your block to the footings and fill cores with concrete. I've even seen bloc-loc (wire reinforcement) every three courses. The wall is restrained at the bottom by the slab and at the top with the floor structure. Is this a code thing for you?

Just a thought. You sloped the dirt towards the neighbor's lawn next to the garage. Do not be surprised when those lovely neighbors complain that the runoff of rain floods their yard. Also shouldn't you run the filter fabric up along the wall and over the stone along the wall, cover the fabric on top of the stone then put dirt against the fabric? Without the fabric on top that dirt will eventually end up mixed with the stone and clogging it up defeating the function of the stone.
