Backfilling the Foundation and Deck Supports
At the modular home site in the Berkshires in Western Massachusetts Bob meets with Michael Shiels to discuss the backfilling of the Superior Walls basement foundation system. Due to excessive rain, dry sand was trucked in to provide a medium for the drainage of water away from the home’s foundation. Outside the front door a deck is beginning to take shape. Concrete columns for the base of the porch pergola have been poured and anchored four and a half feet into the ground to prevent frost heaves.
