NEW PICTURES! Combating Soil Erosion
|
 |
|
 |
Yards that are soggy and have soil erosion are never appreciated! For this homeowner Hendrickson Excavating installed N-12 pipe underground, taken out to daylight, to drain the water.
|
|
Pipe was covered with topsoil than the area was raked and seeded.
|
 |
|
 |
Now the water will drain, the grass will grow and it will shortly be a wonderful place to spend time together! |
|
|
This is a septic repair that was required due to a failed inspection.
|
 |
|

|
The failed portion of the system was the distribution box. The function of a distribution box is to equally distribute water to each lateral within the septic field. |
|
Photo shows the new distribution box reconnected to all piping. Upon completion all work is backfilled, raked and grass seed is placed on the disturbed area. |

Stripping of vegetation and topsoil.
|
|
Finished product. 30" fill on the low side using shale for fill material and crushed stone for the finished surface. |
This was a septic system alteration on ground that was difficult to perk. This type of system requires that the contractor have an advanced treatment license issued through the National Environmental Health Association.

Gravel Driveway
|
 |
|
 |
Driveway graded and ready for stone.
|
|
Finished gravel driveway. (Note: Stone looks "old and dirty" when it's first applied due to the "stone dust". Once it rains all the dust washes away and the gravel looks clean.) |
