Dunwoody Station-Making Progress



A lot of work done in the last two days..I'm tired! Should finish with this job tommorow. Have dug trenches for and laid 200' of pipe, removed about 100' of old pipe , moved 3 yards of gravel via wheelbarrow and...have everything covered up and ready for final grade and clean up. The hardest part today was getting the older AC units raised and leveled without harming all the pipe/connections attached to them. This was necessary in order to raise the grade a bit along that side of the house. The river rock path was installed over the part of the French Drain that leads to the back gate.

Dunwoody Station


This project is another drainage solution job. Client is getting water in the basement and the first course of action is to get as much of the water away from the foundation as possible. I will be raising the grade and a couple of AC units along the side of the house-and running two drain lines from the front corner to the back of the back yard. One is all solid and will drain the two downspouts on that side-the other is a perforated line for 50' encased in gravel as a French Drain then carried the final 50' as a solid line. I am running the two 4" lines in the same trench-that's is why it is 18-20" wide. As you can see from that back of the van-I have a lot of pipe to install!
