Floor and wall sag
The wall between the kitchen and dinning area the floor has about a 1/2" drop. This wall was built missing a joist by 2" and there had been a moisture problem in the basement that must have softend the floor. The joist are 2x8 and it is a 2 story house. There is plumbing to the 2nd floor bath in the wall so adding a joist would be harder than jacking and blocking between the joist, but i'm not sure if can support it?
