Grading Complete

Bret Martin installed the curtain drain, graded the site and rocked the access road and parking area.



Bret is quite the operator on his T250 purchased at Bobcat of St. Louis. He was working dirt/rock regardless if he was moving backwards or forwards.


For the parking area, he removed the top soil so that that the rock would be even with grade. Then he used this top soil around the log house.


The curtain will prevent any water from moving beneath the cabin. He used a brown rock in this area. It blends in nicely don't you think?


On the porch is the walnut staircase stringer.

  2. The stringer is the support under the steps of the stairs. It is what connect one floor to the next. You may be able to see the stringer in your own home under the basement stairs.
