What happens here
Start the demolition of the old timber retaining wall. The Daewoo Solar 75V excavator, equipped with a grapple attachment, will carefully remove old railroad ties from the wall. For timbers embedded close to the house siding, use a Milwaukee Sawzall with a long blade to cut them, preventing them from catching and damaging the siding as they are pulled away. The Caterpillar skid steer loader will then collect the removed timbers and transport them to a large red dumpster for disposal. This method helps separate timbers from excess dirt, minimizing disposal costs.
Goal: Demolish and remove the old timber retaining wall efficiently and safely.
