What happens here
Once all the large concrete blocks and significant rubble have been removed by the skid steer, the final phase involves thoroughly cleaning and preparing the demolition area. Use the excavator's bucket for rough leveling or, if available, attach a broom or grapple to the skid steer for sweeping up smaller pieces of concrete, dirt, and dust. Manually rake and level the ground as needed to create an even surface. This meticulous cleanup ensures the site is tidy, safe, and properly prepared for any subsequent landscaping, construction, or grading projects.
Goal: Leave the demolition site clean, level, and prepared for future work
