It's clear he got his money's worth. I appreciate how you always come back to check your own work! So many people won't even come back when ya call them and express a problem or unhappiness with the outcome. Any Contractors watching take a page out of Andrew's ethics and even if you get down on your luck you'll have loyal Customer base that will either help you out with work or vouch for you. Your one of a kind Andrew! Keep up the good work!
Hye Andrew, I am a guy from Québec in Canada. I am french speaking guy, tho, don't be to severe about my english. You impress me very much and I have all of your videos. Your are a smart guy and very good in repair wobs. Your videos are well done and you have a real talent for this. Keepgoing and take ok you and your family. Bye
We enjoy your videos for many reasons, but especially the excellent editing. Unnecessary footage is cut, allowing a good flow of story-telling. Thanks and good fortune to you!
I really appreciate how Andrew goes above and beyond for the client...👍 He just needed to put in the culvert, but completely regraded his driveway and leveled out and graded the whole yard!💯🏆🥇
Thank you for your excellent video editing. Showing the whole process from start to finish, fast forwarding on repetitive parts, explaining what is happening and so on. I'm extremely impressed by both your skill in property maintenance and video editing!
Good job but I would recommend you should cover the underground drainage pipe with landscaper's fabric. It's cheap and keeps dirt from clogging the holes in the pipe and eventually the pipe will get clogged and you'll have to dig it back up and do the job over again.
Dude you literally have one of the best youtube channels. You are so informative and i can truely see how you want to help people get where you are. Keep it up!
I always knew you were a good, solid dude Andrew. Glad to hear and see that you are now putting the holes down. And you even mention that other video where a bunch of us old timers gave you that advice. Technically, you are right and it works both ways... But it works "better" with the holes down; less water build up in the first place. Anyway, nice job.
Yes you must be proud of the effort you put into making your job sites not only are very functional when you are finished with them but they also very neat and people will look at the finished job and know a “Professional” did that job! Keep it up
I always love the way Levi jumps out and runs around a property he has already been on before. Nice job Andrew and My brother bought one of those drones like you use and watching our tech guy running it out here at my big old house with many tall tress, I got to see how the automatic landing works and other questions I used to have when I first started watching you. Keep up the great job and enjoy your holidays or at least the one day off you give yourself!
With the connections you have, maybe a expansion into lumber garages or grounds maintenance. A bigger tractor or lift the box blade.. to do it or not to do it bigger machines cost more to maintain but then they are faster. Stay with what you have and know the limits or go bigger and break more. As maintenance goes, a set of door pins in dump truck wouldn't hurt, do that on the second saturday this week... that never comes. You have grown exponentially to a force to try an outbid from other contractors. Your busy for a reason, plus your "inspector" has been giving you passes when he might of been more critical (more whip cream dad on my biscuits) What a fabulous companion
Now, I haven't read through all 638 comments, and I"m not going to, but I take it from what little I've read that Dig Safe isn't a thing in New York State. I've seen you dig before, Andrew, without any Dig Safe markings. Man, in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts there is no way you'd dig across an electric service without Dig Safe having marked that out first, or any other services for that matter. And I realize they get it wrong half the time. In the Commonwealth, it's a requirement of the law. I give you credit, dude. You got guts. I love these videos.
Cool. I didn’t know what way the hole should go. In the past I’ve seen down but didn’t realize why. Between you explaining it and the comments I learned something. Thanks. Love the videos
Andrew - Your video editing skills have gotten really good. I know it’s a pain and time consuming but it does make a much better video for the viewers. Once again, nice work on the site and the ‘studio’!
Great video as aways keep it up. For similar work I typically use the 4" perforated black drain tile with sock on it. It holds up well and is easy to install. Like others mentioned if you have long runs put a clean out in or a catch basin if practical. I know alot have mentioned digrite 811, where I live it's the law and my insurance won't pay if I don't have a valid completed work order. I fill the requests out on line and typically in 24 to 48 hrs they are complete. In an emergency they have a on call team that marks 24hr a day for like water mains and sewer breaks. I installed an electric brake controller in my dump truck. Pretty straight forward install. I have the time delay style Reese brand works good.
I am a long time YouTubien and I just found your channel a few days ago but i love everything about you and what you do, you are living my lifelong dream!
Nice Job Andrew !!!! Foremen Levy, ok's the job as well done..... 2,130 views and only 216 likes insane give the guy a like he spent the time to make the video, edit it witch is a pain in the *ss and upload it................ GIVE ANDREW A LIKE !!!!! So difficult to hit that thumbs up ......
A very very big fan, just rewatching all your videos. if you ever run out of ideas post more about fixing all of your equipment I don't know why but those videos are some of my favorites.
Ever notice that in nearly all of these "man-project" videos, it's a guy and his dog not a guy and his girlfriend/wife! I got rid of the wife many years ago (actually she got rid of me, thank God), but will NEVER get rid of or be without the dog!
My wife gave you the ultimate compliment, she said, "you work like Andrew, you guys take care of the job and the whole surrounding area." I'm fine with doing it like you buddy. Good job.
Water is lazy and looks for the easy path, holes down give it the easy path without having to get up to the mid/top of the pipe. Yes the rock handles a good amount of the water but when surface water and ground water start up the pipe quickly handles the overflow. One thing you might want to do on future projects is the up hill side end with a surface clean out by putting in a 90 rather then a cap. This makes snaking or flushing the line easier when it gets silted up. In the current form you would need to work from the down hill side to clean it out so are standing/kneeling in the water/muck you are cleaning out of the pipe.
Ya, pipe holes down limits the crap percolating down through the stone from above into holes, if facing up, and filling the pipe with crud over long period; water percs down to bottom of trench and then when it rises into the pipe through the holes on the bottom, its not carrying the crud, and it flows down the pipe as Andrew H describes.
Solid point! Pipes need maintenance to keep functioning over time. Always install catch basin at uphill end & every 50-75' or so to provide cleanout access. You could stretch to 100' but shorter runs are easier to snake ;-)
Holes down is the way to go. Another problem with holes up is the pipe can't drain the water covering the pipe below the holes. You could have 4 inches of water around the pipe that can't drain because the holes are on top. But as usual, another great vid. Thanks Andrew.
Andrew, The next thing you need is a utility locator wand. Then you can search the area for utilities yourself, mark them out, and avoid them/dig around them.
I am recognizing this project from other videos and the place is looking pretty good compared to when you first started. It will be awesome when you finish. Thanks!
I have no idea about construction, holes up / holes down. I just watch your videos because they're fascinating and it's amazing to see someone working so hard and the quality of the videos are perfect. But I think it really speaks to your character that you had been doing something (holes down) for so long and when the majority of people commenting said the opposite, that you took the advice and learnt from it and handled it perfectly. So many people would have been stubborn and stuck to their guns and tried to justify their way. You are a true gent and it's a pleasure to see you work. Also I hope you get the chance to take some time off and look after yourself, doing all this work and maintaining a business and a RUclips channel with all the editing must be incredibly time consuming. Make sure you're looking after yourself. All the best.
Hey man I found your channel about a month ago and started watching your videos, and I haven’t been able to get any work done since. Lol. You do a great job and I like your work. I will admit it I am addicted. Lol. Keep up the good work man . Love the channel. The overhead crane one was excellent. Take care
Hi Andrew. What a great channel you have. Here in the Midwest, it is illegal to dig until you call the diggers hotline. There is no charge, and they come out for all utilities marking within 24 hours. The utility companies pay for the service. I figured out why you said the girls in your area are all crazy. You are so close to Albany and New York City that all that craziness spills out into your area. Hahahaha. Keep up the great work and great customer service. Maybe it will be contagious to others. Best regards.
Nice work with your box blade! I wish mine had a flip up rail for the scarifiers. Much easier than pulling all the pins to raise or lower them individually.
Hey Andrew here's a tip that will help you out. Weld a piece of flat bar on the back of your box blade on the top and mount a ball on it. Works great to moving trailers around and not having to drop the box blade off if it's not too heavy of a trailer. Just make sure your tractor way more versatile.
Andrew, another great video. Thank you for taking the time and effort. As and underground contractor and a "virtual" friend, please do me and yourself a huge favor: call 811 before you dig. Make sure those dig tickets are clear and that everything is marked. It could cost you a lot of money and is such a safety factor when dealing with power and/or gas. The phone call costs no money to you or the property owner. It's just not worth it my friend not to call. For everyone else reading this, please do the same, even if putting up a mailbox or fence or whatever. If you cut a utility line and you haven't called 811 YOU are responsible for damages,
At least it's not a national communication cable, but there is no price for your life. "Should be 18 inches down" have been the last words of quite a few contractors. It takes about 3 minutes to locate that power line, and an additional 2 to locate the communications. I'm not gonna tell anyone what to do, but I would seriously at least invest in a locate set. Then you know for sure, for sure, exactly where the utilities are and you are not guessing.
Typical 80's ford truck doors, have had the pleasure myself. Keep an eye out for some replacement door hinges, those are about gone and/or the hinge mounting points are hogged out. You can fix that window crank by replacing the plastic knob with a roller bearing, hard part is finding the right size bearing and suitable mounting hardware. Hockey or gaffer tape wrapped on the roller bearing makes it less slippery.
12.17.2018 Nice job Andrew. I enjoy watching you work. I did a fair bit of dirt work at my last job. Had a Ford 4610 w/box blade 5yd dump. I would say same tractor just 1 bump larger than you use. Shaping up as a real nice day here at 0735.
8:43 Totally thought Andrew was gonna miss and hit his own trailer. 8:45 Reality hit... Andrew doesn't miss trailers... Trailers miss Andrew. You are a professional sir. Another interesting video. Enjoy watching them all.
I think you'd do well with a Rockhound attatchment for the skid steer. They do a great job collecting all the rocks and debris and leave nice flat fluffy loam that you almost don't have to rake and any loam raking needed is minimal. I've used it many times. Makes anyone look like a rock star.
The reason the holes are down is so the water in the trench doesn't have to reach the top of the pipe before it starts draining....Love the vids keep them coming,,,, Your getting better at the vids each time you make one
It's also better to not put much gravel under pipe because same reason. Water collects in trench you have like 4" gravel under pipe so there needs to be 4" water before it reaches those holes and start drain away.
looking forward to your Videos, in Germany we‘ve got lot‘s of regulations for digging, handle with dirt, gravel and specially of drainage! You should buy a bomag to level and stabilizing. Shouldn‘t use one type of gravel for thick level, the small type of gravel should be 2“ max. Under getting more mm of rocks (don‘t know in english) Regards from Germany!
Did anyone else chuckle when Andrew said "no puddle here," at 18:54 . . . as he focuses on a small puddle? 🤭. Still an excellent video. Up to his standards.
I'm not an expert with pipe laying but I used to do it for a company, doing sewer with SDR 35, and drainage with ADS perforated and non perforated and water main; and in my experience with doing that work you usually put the perforated pipe up, only because you're not trying to catch the water in the ground itself (which would make the ground all squishy and a mess), you're trying to move the water that hits the ground and stays, which leaves all the puddles everywhere
It's clear he got his money's worth. I appreciate how you always come back to check your own work! So many people won't even come back when ya call them and express a problem or unhappiness with the outcome. Any Contractors watching take a page out of Andrew's ethics and even if you get down on your luck you'll have loyal Customer base that will either help you out with work or vouch for you.

Dude, you are killing it! Talking to the landowner to make sure you do what they want.....genius!!! :P Great job!

GOOD JOB ANDREW AND LEVI

What a Life Levi has. He is always on the go. Andrew you have given Levi so much happiness and will for years to come. Levi is a good boy.
One of the best machine operators I’ve seen. I’ve seen quite a few. Don’t let the compliment go to your head lol.

Keep up the video posts, always enjoy watching them
''You load sixteen tons, what do get? Another day older and deeper in debt...'' Great Merle Travis song. Like always, very informative AC-Thanks!
You have done a great job on making that property look very nice!
Nice work with your box blade! I wish mine had a flip up rail for the scarifiers. Much easier than pulling all the pins to raise or lower them individually.

thanks Andy this is exactly what I need to do. Thanks for your help.
Thanks Andrew like the video an very good job man .
Thanks to the home owner for allowing videos,beautiful home a garage will top it off.
Typical 80's ford truck doors, have had the pleasure myself.
Keep an eye out for some replacement door hinges, those are about gone and/or the hinge mounting points are hogged out.
You can fix that window crank by replacing the plastic knob with a roller bearing, hard part is finding the right size bearing and suitable mounting hardware.
Hockey or gaffer tape wrapped on the roller bearing makes it less slippery.
Great job. Need someone like you around my area. You seem to be a Tradesman with many talents and abilities, not mention your own fleet of equipment.
12.17.2018 Nice job Andrew. I enjoy watching you work. I did a fair bit of dirt work at my last job. Had a Ford 4610 w/box blade 5yd dump. I would say same tractor just 1 bump larger than you use. Shaping up as a real nice day here at 0735.
You really do nice work; and right out to edges! Keep that!
8:43 Totally thought Andrew was gonna miss and hit his own trailer.
8:45 Reality hit... Andrew doesn't miss trailers... Trailers miss Andrew.
You are a professional sir.
Another interesting video. Enjoy watching them all.
... Andrew Camarata (inc chief inspector Levi)... master(s) of mud and machine!
yet another interesting video, keep up the good work my friend
You've done lots of work for this guy. Like the way it's turned out.
Yeah, I like dealing with this guy, and its close.
I think you'd do well with a Rockhound attatchment for the skid steer. They do a great job collecting all the rocks and debris and leave nice flat fluffy loam that you almost don't have to rake and any loam raking needed is minimal.
I've used it many times. Makes anyone look like a rock star.
LEVI THE GREAT INSPECTOR.....VERY SWEET DOG.
Another great job!
Nice Job Andrew! Yeap the holes go definitely down thats how their were designed for.
Id love to have a beer with you. You seem like a genuinely good guy.
Excellent work Andrew ... u make me proud to know you ! ! !
great job man.. another tip would be to use geotex fabric NON-woven to help keep the gravel clean from dirt and mud and have long lasting drain.
The reason the holes are down is so the water in the trench doesn't have to reach the top of the pipe before it starts draining....Love the vids keep them coming,,,, Your getting better at the vids each time you make one
I get that, but what if the height of the holes is an acceptable water level?
it would work just not as effectively as holes down. It also helps stop the pipe from getting filled with sediment.
It's also better to not put much gravel under pipe because same reason. Water collects in trench you have like 4" gravel under pipe so there needs to be 4" water before it reaches those holes and start drain away.
looking forward to your Videos, in Germany we‘ve got lot‘s of regulations for digging, handle with dirt, gravel and specially of drainage! You should buy a bomag to level and stabilizing. Shouldn‘t use one type of gravel for thick level, the small type of gravel should be 2“ max. Under getting more mm of rocks (don‘t know in english)
Regards from Germany!
This video you should have your newly built ditch bucket! lol That thing would’ve worked great digging this ditch!
Amazing videos, thanks for show to us your fantastic job, one more subscriber!
good for another 100,000 miles, we hit a 7620 kva power line with a trencher, BANG. keep up the good work, sir
This channel should be 10x bigger than Direstas.
Yes, just because of it’s honesty and hard work .
Good job Andrew and Levy
16:20 Owner be like "oops, just back away... back away slowly and maybe I won't be seen on the video"
another “Levi approved” job well done!
In love with half of these properties you work on
We need another hour of you just fixing things!
Filming a jetski repair right now, and just did a fiberglass repair on a boat.
Love your dog and your videos, very informative :) keep going! Greetings from Germany
Finally... and inspector you can like having on the job!
I hope someday you have a son and show him everything you now. You are becoming such a rare young guy. Really rare.
Did anyone else chuckle when Andrew said "no puddle here," at 18:54 . . . as he focuses on a small puddle? 🤭. Still an excellent video. Up to his standards.
A little grease on the door hinges wouldn't hurt!
I'm not an expert with pipe laying but I used to do it for a company, doing sewer with SDR 35, and drainage with ADS perforated and non perforated and water main; and in my experience with doing that work you usually put the perforated pipe up, only because you're not trying to catch the water in the ground itself (which would make the ground all squishy and a mess), you're trying to move the water that hits the ground and stays, which leaves all the puddles everywhere
Great job sticking with the project until it's fixed. Most people would just pass on it and leave the puddle for the next guy.
Andrew i like all your video. I wash more of your video. Than I wash movie.thanks Andrew keep it going. Good work.
