When you're trying to make dreams come true one of the most important things to remember is the truth. It doesn't matter what kind of whimsical place you've designed, the truth is that gravity won't change -- and neither will the effects of rain water.
This little house at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure in Seuss Landing fell victim to the laws of nature. The sill of the window was sloped slightly in instead of out. Now this isn't exactly the kind of structure that one takes a level to, so the error was easily missed. That is, until the first rains came. A standing pool quickly developed that would have eventually damaged the structure. Fortunately the problem was quickly noticed (it was actually hard to miss), and easily corrected.
The foam finish was so easy to work with that the repair was made in a couple of hours. The patch had to completely dry before it could be repainted.
