This is the steepest gravel driveway that I have worked on. Steep doesn’t properly describe it. Check out this repair and lets hope it works…

Nice work! Here in ohio, we put all of out water lines 48" or below. Its funny to me to hear about them only being 18" down 😅 Imagine the amount of time a tilt bucket would have saved that septic installer on that slope.
@tristardiggin
@tristardiggin 11 месяцев назад
Right, 48" inches would have gotten them out of the way for sure. We have very little ground freeze here. So, if we are lucky they have been installed 18" in the ground. Sometimes they are less than that depending on the guy who did the line. I have hit plenty of shallow water line repairing driveways, not fun!

Water will follow the steepest pitch. So if the road is steeper than the crown-to-ditch, the only solution is switchbacks. If paved, surface drains/waterbars might mitigate. Basic engineering says the road was not built correctly to start. Funny what people 'think will work', defying gravity. SMH
