Backfill and Well Pump

After the crushed stone was put over the foundation perimeter drains (weepers) and filter cloth added, the foundation was backfilled with sand. This raised the grade all around the house and gives a far better idea of what it will look like when finished. The lake side walkout shows how the gentle slope stepping down allows the basement windows and family room walkout to be accomplished.

While the machines were on site, the trench for the well line was dug and Ken Newson and I installed the well pump and water/electric lines back into the basement.
