Tim, I watch all of your videos for advice and learning purposes! I am a little older but I can tell that you treat every one of your customers with the upmost respect butthe one thing I can say is that you treat every job as if you were doing for yourself! Always doing such a professional job!
I use fabric before I put rip rap down. I recommend it to stop the erosion. Rock will slow the velocity but it'll still erode around that rock- just like it looked when you got there first with that concrete chunks. Should use non-woven geo fabric then the rip rap.
rock lined drainage swales are a common conservation practice to prevent erosion where water runoff gets concentrated .. some specs (forest service / nrcs) calls for a layer of erosion control fabric placed below the rip rap to help prevent washout of fine materials .. while large rock is effective oftentimes adding some smaller stone to the mix helps to fill in gaps and prevent shifting .. nice job ...
Good lords blessed you with good jobs. I'm trying to get my business built up an going right now and praying I get blessed with good jobs and customers. Good job , thanks for the videos. God bless you brother.
I know your doing the driveway in stages but what you have done looks really awesome. I dint have a clue what it costs for the concrete driveway. Mind blowing cost im sure. Great job sir.
At 3.5" thick 12 feet wide and 1163' in length, that's 163 yards @ $90.00, not including labor, underlayment, finishing, etc. Just the concrete was probably $16k That's my guess. Today the average cost per yard nation wide is $137.00..an increase of 53% . $22,331 is an increase of 6k. A huge high rise job or a parking garage or basement addition to a home could be canceled just because of the inflation rate on materials let alone nobody wants to work for less than 25 bucks an hour even when they don't know shot from shine-ola. We're in big trouble, folks. Most people can't even recognize the fact of where we are.
Using the information given,it would cost around $70K, materials and labor to pour that driveway here in Sowph Jawga. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us. Keep up the great videos.
Love the videos Tim but i cant do that crazy ass rave club music. You'd Have to be be high on Drano or something to listen to that kinda stuff lol. Driveway turned out nice Chris would be proud
The scales in the new cat loaders and even the next gen excavators are extremely accurate !!! Thats why you see him Lift the bucket that high after going into the pile he weighs every bucket then the scale adds them up and tells you when you are close to your target weight
Great looking job well done. Something about watching somebody spreading rock 👍. P.s. good catch with the start of undermining that concrete, just in time. 👍Greetings from Lancaster county Pa.
Dear Mr. Tim, great job you did there, but I have an observation with all the respect you deserve. When big rocks are placed on areas where there is a lot of water running, it usually erodes underneath the rocks, living you with another problem. Grass, it would it be your best opinion incluye my humble opinion.
Yes, you are right but it comes down to whether the customer wants to spend the money for that. I can only work with what I'm allowed to and it often limits me on how I would really like to finish the job out.
@cotontop3 You are correct about that. It was just an observation, a constructive criticism of my part. Looks like you are a very knowledgeable person, and you did a great job there. A hug from Puerto Rico USA.
About $88,000.....plus mobilization, clearing & grubbing, grading, culverts installed, seeding and mulching.....maybe $235,000 total in today's money. However, it's been 10 years since at bid/built a job like that....and I don't know updated prices.
Have to love that Swivel head with this. Nice job. Good catch on the water. Wonder how many loads of cement was in the limestone rock if made into cement!
That’s pretty darn cheap, we would have more then that in material in mid Michigan. We are at $155.00 per yard for 3500 psi concrete these days. Labor at $325 per man per day, It would absolutely have to have Wire because of the slopes, Stone Deck down for Grade, I don’t know for us up here in the land of Giant Snowflakes and now always the melting kind loll everything is costly.
Hi Tim , I live in the UK , having watched your channel for many years and also let’s dig 18. I am always surprised that the utilities in the states such as cable there is no set depth for cables below finished ground level as you showed us the cable only appeared to be perhaps 6 inches below road level is there a risk with the rip rap at the road edge a vehicle could Run over and the large rip rap and crush and slice the cable with it being so fleet to the finished ground level. Keep up the great vids.
In the United States the only utility that generally has a common depth from state to state is an electrical line it's generally buried at least 3 ft deep, water lines are generally buried below the freeze depth and that could change depending on where you live in the United States, but other utilities like internet and telephone cable TV sometimes they're buried no more than six or eight inches deep. Generally with anything but water and electricity drop/bury crew will come in with the machine that lays the cable and digs a small trench with a plow and covers it back up as it moves forward and it's generally only 6 to 8 in at the most. I've pulled up many of fiber optic cable and water line doing jobs before, luckily I've never hit a live electrical line because they're very deep and always get my jobs marked by Miss utility so I know where the lines are at that way if I hit one it's not my fault. Take care over in the UK.
When you put that rip rap down lay some of that erosion fabric underneath it that will make the job look better and it will give the water a better path for escape without causing erosion of the soil. I couldn't tell if you placed erosion fabric under the stone on this job.
I was gonna say the same thing, and I would have cut a lip along the edge and keyed the rock in so it looks nice. But he knows how much time he's got on the job, bid, and what the customer wanted to spend.
Should be able to set the tailgate chains, and do a spread up the ditch, and with the size of the box, it would be around six or seven feet wide making it much easier to pretty it up.
To bad you don't have a grader there to recut the back slope and sloping from the driveway to the new ditch line. Would be so much faster and get a much better grade for the drainage. And if you have a dozer there, you could use it to revamp the drainage ditch , and track walk the area for the riprap, if the ground is somewhat hard, it will just loosen 5he top few inches so when spreading the riprap out, it will get pushed into to ground a bit and definitely help with the erosion, instead of it just sitting on top of the ground. Fabric will help some, but if the ditch gets a high, fast and deep amount of water flowing down the ditch , the water will still pass through fabric and still get erosion
I’d have taken the end-swell to the right just a bit more, making it wider, so that once it runs off into the wooded gully, it goes wide and low… otherwise looks like a fun job
That loader operator would be fired here in WNC for dumping that first load as fast and as high as he did. That is a good way to ruin someone’s truck…. Good job on the ditch line looks nice 👍🏼
1/4 mile = 1320 feet x 12 feet wide = 15040 sq feet * .5 feet thick = 7920 cubic feet / 27 cu ft/yard = 293 cu yards * price per yard delivered + labor & materials and profit margin. All on top of the cost of the land clearing and dirt work to get the subgrade ready.
Debating on tilt grading bucket or tilt head by Ragnor, OR go all the way with a full rototilt head. Rototilt head is very expensive but dang it's versatile.
About 224cy at $130/cy 2 years ago=$22,880 in concrete. That’s at 4” thick About $3/sf to form, pour and finish = $43,200 $66,080 total cost. Maybe a little more if they used fiber or wire.
FANTASTIC JOB , I really love your videos........Until I have to run 🏃♂️ to my remote to MUTE that skull fracturing Gay Bar Disco Soundtrack you've added in.
@@cotontop32 kubota svl95's and a shearex and fae head. Love them both. Shearex can cut almost anything. The FAE leaves a real fine mulch.

Good job on the fix. Love that grading bucket. Our mini is not big enough (6300#) to handle something like that but it sure would be nice!
Nothing like a freshly rip rapped ditch, great job Tim, looks awesome, thanks for sharing 💪🇺🇲
I know your doing the driveway in stages but what you have done looks really awesome. I dint have a clue what it costs for the concrete driveway. Mind blowing cost im sure. Great job sir.

Good job sorting out the velocity of the water. If you can spread it out and slow it down, that's how you stop things from eroding.
Great job Tim, the angle bucket is a great advantage on a job like that👌👍🙂

@kevincorapi137 the old timers are good thats for sure 👌 I'm accurate but not accurate
Back in the early 80's we use to place all the RipRap by hand. There wasn't many excavators on the job.
That's what I always say Mr tim. There's plenty of work for all of us. Those who try to dominate the business in one area usually don't last long.
Man I just came across your channel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video Tim looks great 👍 👌. I like when you work on your machine
Great looking job well done. Something about watching somebody spreading rock 👍. P.s. good catch with the start of undermining that concrete, just in time. 👍Greetings from Lancaster county Pa.

Lets dig18 might have a job opening 😂if you need one. Great job
Great job 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Looks real nice, Tim.
Great work. Liked and subbed. Imagine how expensive that driveway would be today! As much as the cost of my first house.
Thanks for the sub!

Have to love that Swivel head with this. Nice job. Good catch on the water. Wonder how many loads of cement was in the limestone rock if made into cement!
Great job Tim definitely should help. I figure 40-50,000$ with concrete and labor. Keep on rolling Brother.

@@Diddley-js6lf I was just taking a guess lol. It's been a while since I've messed with any concrete. You right everything is getting expensive.
Could you have added fabric in order to manage weeds or would have that messed with the flow of the water?
I admire when you do a job the end result is just you. You do the job if it something you were doing for yourself
Thank you
That small dump buckets are so handy!
I love mine.
Yeah they’re perfect for this. I wouldn’t have wanted to put a 10 wheeler on that concrete.
@@cotontop3 exactly why I have mine!

I'm guessing all that concrete was from trucks washing out after delivering.

@@tsant6591 very true but if you're gonna do a job, do it right. It reflects back to the person doing the work.
@@JerichoRally💯
I couldn't agree more.
You can cut a few swales further up the hill to divert the water before they make damages down the hill.
Good work brother
Thank you 👍🏻

Love it!
Looking good
If at 12’ wide and 1340’ long which a Quarter Mile it Would be right at $105,000 dollars here in mid Michigan that is.
I just quoted 1/8 mile, arguably half.
So you're dang close.
I'm in Clinton County.
Nice work 👍
Thanks 👍
Looks great and looked like it was fun to do as well.
I’d have taken the end-swell to the right just a bit more, making it wider, so that once it runs off into the wooded gully, it goes wide and low… otherwise looks like a fun job
Not sure about there but in my area concrete is $200/ yard for 3500psi. Tear out and labor to finish isn't cheap either.
Looks good
Good Job
That loader operator would be fired here in WNC for dumping that first load as fast and as high as he did. That is a good way to ruin someone’s truck…. Good job on the ditch line looks nice 👍🏼
Looks great 👍
Thanks 👍
Why weren’t pillars/posts dug underneath and tied into the roadway mesh? These would act as anchors
Good job. But nobody can beat let's dig when laying rock.
I see folks with asphalt driveways where there's no shoulder to protect the edge, gotta keep it tight
Too late now but a layer of filter cloth should have been placed under riprap stone. Keep stone separate from subsoil.
Here in Baton Rouge about 42500. Material and labor.
Nice😊
Driveway alone is about 175 cubic yards of mud, plus the apron and parking pad...
Concrete in some of the places looked less than 4 inches.
Great video Mr Tim from Bryer do you still have your dump truck?
Yes we do
1/4 mile = 1320 feet x 12 feet wide = 15040 sq feet * .5 feet thick = 7920 cubic feet / 27 cu ft/yard = 293 cu yards * price per yard delivered + labor & materials and profit margin. All on top of the cost of the land clearing and dirt work to get the subgrade ready.
2+2=5
Debating on tilt grading bucket or tilt head by Ragnor, OR go all the way with a full rototilt head. Rototilt head is very expensive but dang it's versatile.
Tim I’m guessing 1 million dollars for that driveway
around 28,000.00 dollars for concrete
About 224cy at $130/cy 2 years ago=$22,880 in concrete. That’s at 4” thick
About $3/sf to form, pour and finish = $43,200
$66,080 total cost. Maybe a little more if they used fiber or wire.
Heck, I would have the dump truck behind me and dig the rock out of the box, saving time from walking back and forth, or is it forth and back
about 171 yards
Looks like that project was just in time to protect that driveway.
That sound could’ve been helped a lot by the loader operator. I know them cats are hard to see out of to though.
Bout 100 grand in northern Michigan
Thats 760 in Rock alone damn
Got my hands on the the joysticks trying to help shake out that rock..........
FANTASTIC JOB , I really love your videos........Until I have to run 🏃♂️ to my remote to MUTE that skull fracturing Gay Bar Disco Soundtrack you've added in.
Cap that with smaller stone and you got 2 lane or 3
