We knock down a failing CMU block wall and replace it with a freestanding redi rock retaining wall. We demolish the block wall, dig the footing, put in stone base, then build the wall. This wall will get caps installed as well.
Awesome job Sean. Using the pipe to move the cap in place was very smart. I have bought a backhoe and an excavator from Midstate and I didn't get a hoodie. Have a great day, Tom
Thank you, the pipes worked out pretty good. Those caps are heavy around 600 lbs. I think I got lucky with the hoodie they seemed like they just got a shipment when I was in there.
Why did you cut those trees they were not even in the way that’s was so stupid and bad for the nature , you could of just move the wall like one feet and you could of kept them 😢poor nature that was so stupid l am unsubscribing and disliking 😠
Hey Sean ! Love your work and the videos you put out ! I’m a landscape /hardscaper and after watching you install the caps with the bobcat I wanted to say that you should check out the hardscape vacuum lifters that are on the market, perfect for setting caps like that ! And definitely safer on the caps and your fingers :) I bought one and love it , would be happy to send you a video of it in action if you’re interested! Keep up the great content my man !!
Thank you and good idea, I've seen those vacuums at the trade shows. I have to see if they make one to attach to the excavator or bobcat. Those caps are 600 lbs so it's too much to for the backpack vacuums. Thanks for watching!
I am not a contractor. I am just wondering why there was no footing poured? Is it because of the sheer weight of these? How deep of a trench was dug and what exactly was it filled that it's sitting on? Thanks people.
You had the room. Could have put the trailer beside the excavator for a fair amount of the demo. Skid driver could reposition as needed. Just a thought.
looks great! maybe leave a 6-8’ planter with a low retaining wall, one block and cap high…pave the rest. might provide more privacy and some greenery ✌️
This looks amazing. Really wish I could find a company to do something like this on my property in Colorado (as long as I could afford it) that pays attention to detail as I have seen in your vid's.
