Sometimes you find the little wins like being able to remove a Palo Verde tree just a few feet away from a saguaro, including the root ball, without disturbing the saguaro!

Tight spaces behind the wall with uneven rocky slopes have definitely made backfilling this restraining wall challenging. Not to mention a waterproofing membrane on the wall that is self healing up to a 16th of an inch, not sure the last time a 27,000 pound excavator put a 16th of an inch scratch on something. With great communication and teamwork, we’re making our way up the wall and getting closer to finish grade for the upper floor.

Back at our La Reserve Job now that the Masons have finished the 14’ restraining wall in this soon to be 11,000+ sq. ft. home. The first few pictures are the 10’ wide trench we excavated for the 9’ wide footer. The rest are what it looked like behind the wall before we started backfilling. There will be a concrete slab above the wall on the uphill side for the first floor so compaction is key…

Getting in there real deep like!

Getting closer to turning it over to the masons for their 14' tall CMU retaining wall. But first, we have to excavate for the 7' 3" wide footer. We're struggling for space at this point as the dirt will go back in, compacted behind the wall once it is completed and cured and the rock is going into a 15' tall rock retaining wall after the CMU wall is complete and potentially used for rock facing on the exterior of the house. This is going to be a beautiful home!

Early stages of excavation for a 14' high retaining wall between 1st and 2nd floors of a approx. 11,500 sq. ft. under roof home. These are my first images with my new drone (sorry the video flight is a little fast, I'm still getting used to it). The drone should give me a great series of progression images. We've hauled off 45 - 10 wheeler dump trucks of boulders already.

I received a call from a solar company that had 2 previous excavating contractors attempt installing this electrical conduit and failing inspections. With the 6P’s in mind (Proper Planning…), we were able to start from scratch and complete it in 5 hours to prevent closing the road or leaving an open trench over night. We even had a fiber optic line to contest with, that’s one I definitely don’t want to hit $$!
