Septic tank replacement in Boulder County, Colorado
• 0:01 - 0:31 As I got this toilet tank mostly exposed here Dugout got the lid exposed got my components over there and keeping that area clean got the concrete little bit of Riser there. I'm gonna back the dump trailer back up in here loaded up all this awesome stuff away. All this these boils of What Not are all right down there you can see I got the tank over there if things out of the way and one of the things I've found for breaking these tanks up the best technique rather than beating on the machine and trying to. •
0:31 - 0:43 Hang the concrete to Smithereens as to lift the concrete and drop it not typically will crush and break up the concrete into manageable pieces that can be loaded up and all the way. • 0:54 - 1:13 As you can see this is really tough access getting in here. Well, you can't really see that from here. But this is a narrow road. It's on a steep slope and I'll show you this is Sugar Loaf road down here on the right and Boulder Canyon Drive down below down there in the distance.
• 1:17 - 1:29 So I'm thinking I can probably get around that bend there and get all the way up into that driveway get the machine offloaded and maybe I'm going to have to use the machine to get my trailer spun around. • 1:31 - 1:35 And so that I can get out of here.
• 1:36 - 1:56 I'll probably go and get it started on digging and then leave it to one of our guys to finish the job. Maybe I'll get that tank out of there loaded into the dump trailer for removal. Can't remember what's in the contract on that. Sometimes we bury it. Sometimes we haul it away. Take it to the dump. We'll see we'll see what we got to do on this one. • 1:58 - 2:27 So I'm going to show you what we got going real fast here. It's a tank replacement. This is an old concrete tank and we're replacing it with a 15 hundred gallon infiltrator septic tank from Plastics Incorporated down in Commerce City, Colorado. So we're going to go ahead and excavate out and take out this concrete tank here and will be end up putting all of our excess material all down in here going down into there.
• 2:27 - 2:57 And up in here so that we try to keep this place neat and tidy as best we can but it's tight quarters in here. We don't have a whole lot of room for extra material here is our new tank right here. You can see we got a bunch of extra pipe. We just ordered extra for the yard so we could have some for our supplies. We got our tank here and right over here. We got a loaded squeegee and we're going to use to go ahead and bed our tank and real nice real nice. • 2:57 - 3:16 Pretty like this is flowable fill. So this will fill in our voids and encasing encapsulate that tank real nice. It'll be super happy. That's the long and short of it. All right. Hey, what's up guys? This is Jesse high-performance. Earthworks. Got my sidekick aim in here with me.
• 3:18 - 3:24 Making sure that other dogs can smell smell him being on the tree that is you know. • 3:47 - 4:03 Looks like we're into the Rock there. We're gonna have to double check our measurement if we can't bring that bottom up a little bit and see if we're still going to have room to if we can come up with the tank and then we might be able to have room and get up above that rock.
