we find BURIED Utilities the WRONG way!

What happens here

An existing fire ring made of bricks and a large amount of grass and turf need to be removed from the area designated for the new patio. The crew uses the Kubota skid steer to remove the fire ring bricks and load them into the machine's bucket for disposal. A flat plate compactor is unloaded from the truck, which will be used for compacting the sub-base materials. A dump trailer brings in a pile of recycled Class 5 material (road millings composed of pulverized and crushed asphalt/gravel) to be used as the sub-base.

Goal: Remove existing structures and prepare the sub-base material

What they say

Hide

be just nothing but a problem now you're going to see two pieces of equipment on this job site more than anything else a kubota skid loader and a bobcat mini excavator but what you may notice is that the kubota skid loader does the majority of the actual cutout in the area where they want the patio there's currently a fire ring and a lot of grass and turf all of that has to be removed now you have three different types of material below your pavers you have raw ground which we're going to call your base then we have sub base which is the material we're bringing in right now and then you have screened sand the sub base or the material you see right here is recycled class 5.
