Can't believe I hit the darn thing and broke it! Underground work, digging and more!
What happens here
After installing all water and drainage pipes, the man uses a Gehl RT210 skid steer loader, first with a Raptor Attachments smooth bucket, then with a Raptor Attachments land leveler, to backfill the trenches and grade the entire area around the barn. He carefully pushes dirt, gravel, and crushed run into the trenches, emphasizing the importance of proper compaction to prevent future settling, especially in areas destined for concrete. The skid steer is then used to smooth and level the entire work area, preparing it for future construction or landscaping.
Goal: Securely bury pipes and prepare the ground surface
