Assessment: The project began with assessing the damage caused by a washed-out culvert pipe, rendering the road unusable.
Removal: The old galvanized culvert pipe was removed from the site, clearing the way for the replacement.
Foundation Preparation: The foundation was carefully graded to accommodate the new HDPE plastic culvert, ensuring a stable base for installation.
Installation: The new HDPE plastic culvert was installed, fitting precisely into the graded foundation.
Backfilling: Once the new culvert was securely in place, the area around it was backfilled, providing structural support and stability.
Erosion Prevention: To safeguard against erosion and enhance long-term stability, gabion rip rap was installed along the edges of the culvert.
Completion: With the installation and reinforcement completed, the road was fully restored. The finished product not only resolved the immediate issue but also granted customers uninterrupted access to the rest of their property.
Pond reclamation
Assessment: The project started with an evaluation of the existing pond, which had become overgrown and unusable due to neglect over the years.
Forestry Mulching: The overgrown vegetation around the pond banks was cleared using forestry mulching techniques. This process involved using specialized equipment to grind and clear the dense vegetation effectively.
Opening Up the Pond: By removing the excess vegetation, the pond was effectively opened up, restoring its original size and accessibility.
Restoration: With the pond banks cleared, the owners could once again use the pond for recreational activities such as fishing.
Completion: Thanks to the efficient forestry mulching process, the pond was restored to its functional state, allowing the owners to enjoy their pond activities promptly.
Private Road Installation
Forestry Mulching: The project commenced with forestry mulching, clearing the area and preparing it for road construction.
Road Layout: The layout of the roads was carefully planned and marked out to ensure proper alignment and design.
Topsoil Removal: Using a bulldozer, the top layer of soil was cleared, exposing the solid, stable dirt underneath.
Base Layer: Large #3 stone was laid down as a sturdy base, providing a solid foundation for the road.
Surface Layer: A finer stone layer was added on top of the base, creating a smooth and even surface for the road.
Grading and Finishing: The surrounding soil was graded and fine-tuned to ensure proper drainage and a level surface.
Erosion Protection: To prevent erosion, seed and straw were added, promoting vegetation growth and stabilizing the soil.
Completion: The end result was a well-constructed private road, allowing customers seamless access to their properties while ensuring durability and erosion control.
