Backfill with Imported Soil and Grade
At 9:20 in
We hit a Buried Line -on the Last job of the season.
What happens here
Once the retaining wall blocks and rock backfill were in place, fresh, imported soil was brought in using a dump truck and a skid steer. This soil was carefully placed around the wall, ensuring that the heavy equipment did not damage the newly installed structure. The soil was spread, compacted in layers, and then meticulously graded to create a positive slope, directing all water away from the building and the window well to prevent future water intrusion issues.
Goal: The wall construction was completed by backfilling the remaining area with fresh, imported soil, carefully distributing and compacting it, and then grading the landscape to direct water flow away from the building.
