Holiday Makeover - Demolition

While the well was being drilled we also began work on the yard and pool.  The pool was drained...

The coping and tile was chipped away...


We have a crack in the pool  To repair it, a 3.5" grinder was used to cut the mortar alongside the crack.  Every foot or so a perpendicular cut was made.  A rotohammer drill was used to drill a 1/2" hole on either side of the crack, and a square "U" shaped piece of rebar was hammered into the holes to keep the crack from spreading.


Meanwhile, the landscaping crew demo'd the front walk, which will be donated to Habitat for Humanity.


And the landscape crew had some local help...


Next week we'll be working on the stone patios, pool, and yard.  Merry Christmas!
