Tornado Damage Cleanup
A logging company was called in to clean up after a tornado completely destroyed these woods. It was so thick with trees, limbs and brush they hired me to clear paths up to the trees so they could see what they were doing and safely remove the trees from the area. After one day they had given up on the job. Subsequently, I was able to nearly finish the job in one day! 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧-𝐮𝐩 𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢�

French Drain Trench
This homeowner had a problem with standing water that was running towards the house. This can happen with improper backfill at the time the house was built and property excavated. I dug a French drain trench, put drain tile in, covered that with pea stone, and then filled and resurfaced the area with soil. This should catch any surface water before running towards the house and give it a place to drain to away from the foundation. 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦�

Driveway Installation to Back Shed
It is a lot easier to get your toys and tools in and out of your one-stall garage or shed when it has its own driveway! I cut this driveway into the side of the yard and reshaped the existing hill. All the material was put into the yard to be spread out later. I put down GEO fabric to help with the Clay soils, then topped it with a 5-inch layer of asphalt millings.
