MEDFORD ADDITION - DAY 1

Work begins with excavation for footings and foundation.


Some surprises - soil was a soupy mess.  The original soil was a green marl that acts almost like a swimming pool liner, retaining the water above.    Water was pouring out of existing house foundation.   We ended up dumping 30 tons of gravel and compacting to improve the base.

Laying out for footings
