There’s nothing normal about what’s happened to Larose’s house, north of Oxford St near Oakridge secondary school. “I appreciate the fact they’re trying to fix it,” says Larose, who shares the home with his wife Michele Barnes and three children. And what started with a wet basement has become an engineering challenge with no end in sight. Purchased in 2005 for about $310,000, the two-storey home has turned from dream to nightmare. “And everybody who comes in here says, ‘You should have a free house, or you should not be living here.’ But I don’t know what the hell to do.”
“This is wrong,” says Larose, a London high-school teacher. It’s an illustration of an undeniable fact: The rear of Larose’s eight-year-old home in northwest London is sinking. Rob Larose plucks an egg from his fridge, places it carefully on his kitchen floor, steps back - and then watches the egg roll into the corner.
