Rebuilding a Limestone Driveway and adding French Drain to protect the Garage.

In this exciting project, we take on a challenging driveway rebuild project using our trusty John Deere 110 TLB Backhoe and 323E Skid Steer. The driveway had a significant hump that needed removal to improve the slope and manage water runoff effectively from the highway. To achieve this, we used the versatile Erskine Soil Conditioner for precise grading and finished the job with a layer of Crusher Run Limestone, ensuring a solid and smooth surface.

But we didn’t stop there. To protect the garage and prevent future flooding, we installed a French drain, an essential addition for managing excess water and maintaining the driveway’s integrity. This comprehensive rebuild not only enhances the driveway’s functionality but also boosts its durability and aesthetics.

Throughout the video, you’ll see the John Deere 110 TLB Backhoe and John Deere 323E Skid Steer in action, showcasing their efficiency and power in handling heavy-duty tasks. Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or a professional in land management, this video provides valuable insights and techniques for effective driveway reconstruction.
