Massive water problems led to one disaster after another. 4 k video pt 2 of 2

What happens here

A mini excavator (Bobcat 325) performs fine grading along the building's foundation. A second worker kneels beside the excavator, using a hand tool to meticulously shape the soil, ensuring precise contours for optimal water flow. The narrator mentions that footage of the complete regrading and sodding process was lost, but he emphasizes that landscape fabric was installed and the grades were significantly altered. Another segment shows a worker using a power edger to create clean, sharp lines along the newly graded areas, which is crucial for the subsequent rock installation.

Goal: Achieve precise grades along the foundation and prepare for landscape fabric and rock installation.
