It's one of the tougher DIY jobs for sure. I used to tell homeowners all the time that if they had the budget to hire someone for certain things around their new home, they should consider hiring this type of job out. I always felt that digging trenches was definitely one of the areas where it was worth hiring someone. But you guys did really well. Now you have money left over for the deck materials, etc.

[@JaYoeNation]

Haha yea. That saved money will disappear into the black hole that has become my back yard projects. Thanks for the comment and appreciate the quality materials to get the job done! I did constantly think how quickly and cleanly your team would have gotten all that done.

[@Bikepacking]

Time to grab a beer and tune in

[@StayConnectedEV]

You might want to put sprinkers in now Matt.

[@JaYoeNation]

yea i was surprised i could catch it on the pocket camera.

[@fjculver4413]

You should have connected your neighbors drain closest to the front so their runoff doesn't ruin things between your homes.

[@JaYoeNation]

i tried.. but i could not get them to commit and i am not going to do it without their permission.

[@clark7117]

I commend you for taking on this challenging project, it's no easy task.
