Demolition Project with Before, During and After Timelapse

What happens here

Workers use hand rakes to meticulously fine-grade the surface of the soil, ensuring it is perfectly level and smooth. A laser level is used to maintain precision, preventing any low spots where water could collect. This step is critical for a high-quality lawn and proper drainage.

Goal: Achieve a perfectly level and smooth surface for sod installation

Tools and materials

  • Hand Rakes — Fine-grading the soil surface
  • Laser Level — Ensuring precise and consistent grading

[Laughter] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] so even though it's just a yard we're still gonna set up a laser you can see it in the lower left-hand corner there to make sure that the pitch and the entire project goes exactly the way we want we don't want any little spots that pool or puddle now part of this backyard renovation is we also have to install edging and size so right here at this spot there's a couple things going on we want the top of the side to match perfectly with that concrete but we also want to make sure we get enough organic material beneath that side to get it to grow so we're gonna take a little bit of extra time right along this edge to make sure that we get all of those factors lined up just perfectly before we move on to the next step one of the things we don't own but we really do need is a Harley rake and what that is is that's a bar on the front of your machine and as you're backing up it'll grade everything out for you now we do it the old-fashioned way with the bucket of the skid loader and then hand raking everything out to make sure that we get all of the ruts out but we spend a lot of extra time where we really wouldn't have to if we had a Harley rake so I think our one of our very next purchases will be that tool just to speed up this part of the process all right guys today is the exception to the rule we've usually don't have an to drive our truck right into the pool but in this case we got it right there it's kind of nice when you've got nice
