Dredging The Last Section And Finishing Grading This Project

[@Silverhornet81]

That Ruckus Rake has really upped your game on cleaning up pond jobs for final touches. They looked great before, and now it's even better.

[@baseball4697]

Always amazes me how Chris’s projects turn out. The Cadillac of contractors.

Well if ya know what ya doing and plan it proper that's generally how jobs go it's when you have no plan or idea what your doing is when jobs go south

A pity he never shares the overall cost of his projects. We don't need to know his personal income, but it would put things in perspective how much different jobs are quoted.

@@patrickh4540 if it's like the UK will be cost if hiring the digger and driver usually

[@djdarksidejungle559]

@@patrickh4540 depending on what size digger ya want really can be anything from 160 quid for a mini digger or a grand for a big 360 for a day and then cost of driver that's another 200 - 300 a day and if he's doing it as a package I would reckon as a plant hire and driver business he can make anything from 500 a day to 2000 a day depends

[@djdarksidejungle559]

@@patrickh4540 and if he's got other machines and drivers then who knows but as a solo guy he's prob clearing 250grabd a year easily as a solo plant and driver hire just on his own but if he's got a few machines and drivers working for him then I would speculate he's making a decent living anyway out of it

Chris has an awesome work ethic and pride of ownership. Every job is like he’s working on his own land.

Great video; thank you to the creators of this great video.

What I think makes You stand out is. You take the time too manicure Your work… Great job Chris!

[@greendeere777]

Chris you are the epitome of what a contractor should be! Absolute perfection and a real enjoyment to watch! Can't wait to see you on the next job's! God Bless from SE Ga!

[@ronaldheit196]

Another awesome pond restoration by Chris with a seriously satisfied customer. The drone footage really gave a good perspective of how beautiful that area is. On to the next job for Chris and us subs to sit back and enjoy watching.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Beautiful job, Chris. You make everything look better. Thanks for sharing this little project, it was fun to watch. Each project may have a similar goal and the joy is watching you solve each puzzle in its own unique way.

[@Manoffire260]

Seeing that mud pit like that brought back nightmare memories of when I was 5 or 6 years old and walking farm fields at my grandparents. I was with my new dog and fell into a pit like that some waterline guys had left filled with mud, but covered over. I was up to my chest in goop and the dog went crazy and ran back to get my dad and grandpa (they definitely knew something was wrong!) and it took four people with ropes to get me out. I lost my pants, brand new cowboy boots, and I was nearly frozen. If it had been any deeper - I probably would have died.

[@matta3888]

I lost a pair of rubber boots in a muddy ditch. I was able to recover them when dried out.

[@craigwavra3495]

Pond is looking good!! Really like the finish of the grading bucket!! Remember when you decided to get one, smart move!!

[@robinparkes988]

that does look good. The owner must be over the moon with it. Well done Chris 🇬🇧

[@heatherlane9270]

Neat completion and the pond will be more serviceable for the owner. Proof of the saying 'If a job is worth doing it is worth doing well'.

[@paulcooper9135]

I love the finish that Ruckus rake leaves at the end of a project! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@keithdunlap2701]

Oh Yeah Man, It all turned out Super Nice Chris !! Man, I have said, it before , that "Ruckus Rake" leaves such a nice clean finish !! Makes ya feel good to step back and look at that when your done !! Another Great Job !! And flying the drone at the end also gives the Owner a Great View of a Before and After !! Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!

[@excavatortrucking]

Great video; thank you to the creators of this great video.

[@AllstarVentures]

Would be interesting to see how much the borrow pit settles if you get a chance to stop by there in a few months. Nice transformation, as usual 👍🏼

[@bradleylampo2535]

I just find it therapeutic watching you run heavy equipment. Thank you Chris ❤❤❤

[@JamesGroves-b1z]

Yep Barney's going to need a good wash job after this job😊

[@JimmyDCarter]

You did a great job with this pond. It looks a lot better now. It will also be better when it is fully finished.

[@sharonmiller6436]

I'm hoping you mean that it will look great once the grass comes up and the pond refills.

[@terryrogers1025]

Pond and dam look awesome, actually a quite a lot of clearing and grading for the size of the pond site. Thanks for the update sir, enjoyed the series.

[@FatKidBrody]

I do like that Ruckus Rake and the finish you get with it. I like it so much better than the other one you tried. Just a much finer finished look.

[@GaryWilkerson-o3b]

When you do a job Chris, you mean business. I'm impressed with the transformation of this pond. I've watched your work for over a year now and I can honestly say that you always do a good job and go the extra mile.

[@keithneal3253]

[@Stratos53100]

[@hirampritchard5588]
