You’re always going to have imperfections but it’s rare to find a contractor that cares for their neighbors. Great job Sean and Crew

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.

Boy, this fella has invested beaucoup de bucks on all this wall! Too bad he didn’t start out with these giant blocks to begin with. Amazing job!

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.

Big boys playing with Lego. Great job.

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!

These are my favorite type wall to build, after the base course it's smooth sailing. Thanks for watching

Very nice guys 👏

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.

Nice. How long did that take with the crew and equipment you had on site? 2-3 days?

Nice job. What does this block go for on average?

Bad ass wall. I so want one

great video great work!!

Sean i would recommend a half block in that area instead of gravel before u step up

What do you use to get your base level? Didn’t see that. I’ve been using 1” pipe

What’s the average cost per foot to build this type of wall

@srmcontracting

It can vary greatly from project to project but ballpark is $50-$60 per sq st

The track loader operator gave me anxiety. My lord. Why not position the trailer and direct deposit instead of using the track loader?

Thank you, they shouldn't crack. I would power wash them every few years and even put some sealer on them if you wanted to give some extra protection.

What about chip or flaking and thank you

did you put the fabric down first then the first 2'' lift compacted into the subbase or did you do the 2'' lift first then fabric?

@srmcontracting

5 ай бұрын

I put 1-2" on the subbase and compact it, then the fabric. I found this method works best for our soil type.

How heavy are the blocks and did you need engineer drawings to build?

@srmcontracting

No engineering on this one, If this wall was actually "retaining" something I would have had drawings done.
