Enjoyed the vid, editing was a little out of order but fun to watch non the less. You show a real world day in the life of the construction crew. God bless my brother.
Good to see the respirator on after the concrete cutting. That dust is seriously horrible for your lungs. Also good to see the luck in having the other company nearby doing the work and willing to help.
It may seem insignificant to others but moving the equipment and coordination of this crucial to the jobs. Yeah, you have times like getting equipment stuck and having to fix trucks on hot & sticky days. It’s how you handle it is what make the difference. Y’all do that quite well. Excellent communication with the customer of the job process. That inspection went nicely. I have had those and the other end of the spectrum. Totally dig your separation and staging of the materials. (Well crap, there was in there unintended) Looking forward to the next video. As wise man always says “God bless and go get ‘em”
Ain't them battery powered tools great! How did we ever live without 'em? Bought my skid steer (aka my toy) 20 years ago. Family and friends thought I'd lost my mind. Now, threy is don't know how I ever managed without one. :-)) Wish I lived closer to you. I'd come over and help you just for fun. I know you understand. Thanks for letting us all watch your operation. Shalom/gw
Told ya bruda ASV Best skiddie on the market today, in my opinion, that gunnite must have had concrete in it. Was awesome to see a competitive company help you out of a crappy situation though. As always good luck and God Bless I catch you on the next video. Love the DeWalt mower test BTW.
Hey DM, here in Tx we build inground pools with "gunite" which consists of cement and small aggregate that is shot into place with an air compressor truck. We dig the pool and lay plumbing, then install rebar, then a gunite truck comes that looks just like a concrete truck, it pumps the mix through a 3" hose and when powered by the air compressor, it is shot into the rebar and troweled to form approx 9" thick. Later the tile and coping are done and final is plaster. Here we dont't use concrete or gunite without rebar or mesh, EVER!!! in pools, sidewalks, driveways, parkinglots, slabs, everything gets rebar or mesh. I have noticed in videos from up north, people lay concrete driveways with no steel in it, never heard of that until youtube. If anything is in a "questionable area for movement, even patios and slabs get Post tension cables with concrete.
Great video Stan!!! I just love all of you guys videos. They are so educational in every aspect. Im a small business landscaping business owner from florida that's trying to grow into the heavy equipment field. So all of your videos are very helpful. Honestly I would leave Florida to relocate if it was ever possible to work for you if the opportunity ever presented itself.
Stan, just a tip we lock down our skid steer with short chain they have large grade 70 hooks and about 3 feet of Cain and then the binder. It saves time and the guys back if your loading and unloading equipment all day. Stay safe as usual great video.
Hi Stan, love the videos! That monkey claw is amazing! Not sure about how they build pools in your area. But I think the bottom of the pool you are mentioning being super crumbly is what we call 'grout' or sand coat up here in Canada. It consists of cement powder, and sand with no large stone aggregate. It is applied a few inches thick and is used because it can be hand troweled to create slopes and coves without slumping like concrete would. Basically the consistency of wet sand. Gunite and shotcrete would be extremely hard and is pneumatically applied (shot) over reinforcing steel against formwork or an excavation. We build our concrete pools with these methods and you would need a serious breaker and excavator to demolish them.
Stan, nice project, very similar to my pool demo with preserving the retaining wall. My pool was all ShotCrete and the only way to remove it was was a few days with a hammer on an excavator. It was a full week job, but the pool is rubble and is now green grass!! Nope, I don’t miss the pool!
Instead of all the sawing simply break it with the beak I’ve ripped concrete with wire or rebar in it out with only the beak and a man jackhammer to break up the larger pieces also more cost effective than cutting blades. Also the hoses in the monkey claw are a little short. Love the videos man 👍
Mr. Stan, it looks like your storage yard could benefit from some industrial shelving for all the different implements, saving space and you could always put on sides and a back to keep the weather out….
I guess my friends, I will just say "Stan you spoil us with incredible camera resolution and many different angles from multiple cameras. I truly appreciate your videos sir and crew!"
It would help. Menards has some that I used that was very adjustable. Just put the metal grates for outdoor. He has a menards close by and they warranty them if they fail.
Nope!!! Love ya my bruhtha, gunite is a Marcite/Portland mix... Vinyl pools, some builders would do semi-hard bottom/ sand, portland mix.. Stay cool, and nice work!!!
you get higher compaction with a wheeled skid loader, higher ground pressure resulting from a smaller contact point but I would take the ASV over any other skid steer as it has a better ride quality due to the torsion suspension just make shorter lifts and have a better back and bum.
I remember you guys fabricating the claw I knew it would work out well. It most certainly served its purpose here! I hope the guy with the dump is feeling okay carbon monoxide poisoning is no joke. Be well, be blessed Stan
Cool to see you using the monkey claw and the new trailer---have I been watching too many of your videos!!!!!??? Janky? That's a new word I could use for a lot of construction I encounter, but trying to be nice, of course.
Hey Stanley what skid loader would you get to do heavier lifting. We need something that can lift close to 6000lb or more. And one that the door is either easy to remove or you can run the skid loader with the door open.
Hi Sir, I really do like your videos, the only problem I have is that it is sometimes difficult for me to hear what you are saying. I think it would really help if you had a separate Blue Tooth microphone rather than just the microphone on the camera. It may be that you already have this and the problem is my hearing. Have a great Sunday, from us in the UK 😀🇬🇧🏴
is using the road to have a pad for your deliveries allowed? i.e. dumping the soil on the road asphalt and then picking it up in the skid? or is it a simple permit thing?
Stan, have you ever used a portable mini jaw crusher to crush old concrete to base and re fill pools? I am in San Diego and have 2 lemtrack 4825 jaw crushers that recycle this kind of material to base for re fill. Thanks Carl
Biggest comment I have on this one, is how the editing is a bit non-linear...it skips forwards and backwards through the demo process. Just a little confusing from the flow. That power broom thing is really useful. The monkey claw vs the beak attachment, do you prefer one over the other, or does it just really depend on the job? You keep trying out other equipment brands, but it always seems like ASVs are there when you need them....was great seeing a competitor be so genuinely helpful, and really couldn't have asked for a better time/place to get the equipment stuck. Great content, look forward to the next one.
Seems like this part of the country has a lot of old pools that get torn out and filled in like this. Like you said this isn't your first rodeo and I've seen you do this before. My cousin in Wisconsin did the same thing. Here in So Cal the pools are built differently and you never see them go through this process and filled in. Thanks for the video Stan.
@@ryansobin412 You're asking a question that you can answer as easily as I can because it's hypothetical. Here in southern California pools typically add value to a residential property. I'm guessing that if they didn't want a pool, they probably wouldn't have bought that property. Anything is possible. Where are you from? Here where I live, residential property is at a premium. It's ridiculously priced. Most older built-in below ground pools are well built and solidly built. Some of the newer pools are one piece fiberglass pools that are craned into place. It's a region factor. This pool demoed by Stan is not how they do them here. Demoing a pool can be done naturally, but most houses here have restricted access to the backyard. I live in the Los Angeles South Bay five miles from the Pacific Ocean. Everything is pushed tightly together with a five foot set back from the property line and obstacles.
@@stevebrough304 new Jersey. I see a trend in fiberglass type shells being used for new in ground pools. I was only questioning because I thought maybe in California they legitimately use a different method. I'm looking to install one at my house and seeing Stan's videos scares me off usually haha. I bet the season for pools is probably short in Wisconsin. They are kind of indifferent for property values in northeast.
PS, when we demo pools here in TX, we only core drill holes in the floor, knock the deck and first foot of elevation (wall) into the pool and fill and pack the rest, top off with good soil.
Thanks for awesome video. Out of curiosity on a job like this why not haul in the loader to haul fill? Larger bucket less damage to yard and decent moving speed. Or is it a matter if not fitting into the yard?
Typically losing exhaust back pressure isnt an issue. Losing pressure on the compressor side (blast tubes or charge air/intercooler) will easily lead to an oversped turbo.. lose oil seal.. runaway engine.. no bueno.
more to come on this one but taking out a pool costs between $8,000-$10g on average. Some people do them cheaper- but they aren't doing them how we do it.
Great video! I like how you show the extras ie fixing the truck, getting pulled out, real life stuff. Just curious, but what music do you listen to when you're working. Thanks
In 30yrs of go go go I'm beginning to realise I need to think a bit more like Tim spent to much time re-doing and sortin work after an unexpected rain storm lately
You'd never be able to fill in every little void and be having holes pop up for a long time. As everything settles. Plus just kinda a half a** way to do a job.
Hey Stan, just curious if you could use those speed binders at the 3:00 min mark to instead of using two at each anchor point to use one horizontally across the width of the bed to cinch the chain hooking in both points?
@@Dirtmonkey Try it out on the next video? Would be cool to see how it fares.. the equipment still get “brought back” to four points but Is taught throw two anchors
@@Dirtmonkey I have the same question. New to equipment hauling here 1 binder would get you tight and save time, is two just cheap insurance or is there another reason?
Swimming pools are the greatest things in the world. Until you have to do the continuous maintenance and pay the cost of maintenance day after day, month after month, year after year. Yea, lawn chair and a sprinkler sounds better and better.
hi stan. im a pool builder in missouri. i was just up in your area about a year ago to pick up a set of pool wall concrete forms. i see you taking out a lot of pools, but does anyone ever put any in.
you had a leak where water got thru the concrete. Compressed dry gunnite is the powdery stuff, but when it gets wet it turns into clay goo and then drys into the hard stuff. Is there a reason you didn't just use loadbinders only to hold the kubota on the trailer.
I'd have to agree with Tim. Better to do it and not need it than not do it and have to fix the mess later. I'm also curious if customers ever ask you to just fill the pool hole with the concrete portion and bury it instead of haul it off? Is that even allowed in your state, I know it is here in the part of New England I'm in.
Stan that SV75 looks like it needs more ass weight when you were picking up just two slabs. Maybe you should give John Deere a try with their G series skidsteers. Stan in 10yrs of business in South Eastern WI I had probably 3 to 5 pop up unforcasted showers a year that ended up costing me a total of 1000 man hours or more. Some of those jobs ended up being delayed because of future forecasted rain weeks to a month or longer. I had a job that we started the early summer that it was the end of the season before we got to get to it and finish it. I ended up losing money on that job because I tried to force it and had to build a haul road to haul the materials in and out.
Is it common that folks are taking out pools? Have these pools failed? I would fill some of the concrete pieces into the pool cavity and layer/compact over it. Will that work or the city will not let you?
Hey Stan! I noticed you are using Isotunes earbuds and was wondering how you think about them? I am considering to buy a pair to replace big sweaty earprotection during the summer
i noticed you guys dont put plywood down for equipment. do you guys bring in topsoil after to put over where the skid steer tears up the customers yard?
Was all that water in the pool when you started that day?? It looked all dried up to me but then it’s half full of water once you started working but anyways awesome job and awesome video 👍👍🇺🇸
I wouldn't have let my employee leave with the truck in that condition. Imagine if the driver got in an accident because of nausea or sustained brain damage from exposure to those exhaust fumes. Not being there it is easy to talk about how I would have done things differently of course. The way I see it, not allowing the driver to leave before fully fixing the issue sends a message to your whole crew that you value their safety and wellbeing over sticking to timelines and the company's bottom line. Still very apparant to me that you care for your crew. Keep up the good work Stan. I love these long videos
I used to work for a natural gas pipeline. The pipeline was 30 inches and buried 10ft .your skid steer isn't heavy enough to hurt the line. We used to give land owners and contractors permission all the time. We would just mark the pipeline and our right of way.
“gunna cut the branches because i dont want the kubota to get all scratched” backs it into the side of the pool 😂😂

Oh man- that sounds like a nightmare. I hate fighting rain- but that hasn't been a problem this year!
By the way I love how that claw works, Great simple design.
Me too!!
Another great one can’t wait for winter vids up north (gods country) take care Stan and crew
Is it common that folks are taking out pools? Have these pools failed? I would fill some of the concrete pieces into the pool cavity and layer/compact over it. Will that work or the city will not let you?
We remove the concrete so it doesn't create wash out places and void spaces.
"like a glove..." Epic!
It's called Pool-Krete. It's Vermiculite+Concrete. Gunnite (is a brand name) of ShotCrete (pneumatically applied concrete either wet or dry)
If you do the thing,
And you do it just right,
And you don't f**k it up,
IT JUST WORKS!

Yuuup!
Hey Stan! I noticed you are using Isotunes earbuds and was wondering how you think about them? I am considering to buy a pair to replace big sweaty earprotection during the summer
I use them four days a week and love them. I used the ones Stan is using but also purchased the isotunes link. Best purchase I have made.
Tim your shorts are way too big 😎 or should I call em shants 😂
i noticed you guys dont put plywood down for equipment. do you guys bring in topsoil after to put over where the skid steer tears up the customers yard?
yep- thats how we do it.
Was all that water in the pool when you started that day?? It looked all dried up to me but then it’s half full of water once you started working but anyways awesome job and awesome video 👍👍🇺🇸
Just a question. Do you ask permition from the home owners before filming on your property ? And if you do ask do you say its for youtube ?
Yes I always ask permission.
Great video
🙏 much appreciated.
I wouldn't have let my employee leave with the truck in that condition. Imagine if the driver got in an accident because of nausea or sustained brain damage from exposure to those exhaust fumes. Not being there it is easy to talk about how I would have done things differently of course. The way I see it, not allowing the driver to leave before fully fixing the issue sends a message to your whole crew that you value their safety and wellbeing over sticking to timelines and the company's bottom line. Still very apparant to me that you care for your crew. Keep up the good work Stan. I love these long videos
He wanted to leave- not sure why but sometimes a guy just gets an itch they have to scratch. so I let him go.
Good video.
Thanks Mike!
Got like the way the Kubota can lift high enough to fill that truck! Thanks
You got that right!
Ok if you only could pick one skid to take to a job which one would you take?
Love the videos
Thank you Ian!!
Why not bury all the concrete on site? Is there a reason it couldn't be left in the bottom to save on fill?
if left uncontrolled it can create void spaces and settlement
I used to work for a natural gas pipeline. The pipeline was 30 inches and buried 10ft .your skid steer isn't heavy enough to hurt the line. We used to give land owners and contractors permission all the time. We would just mark the pipeline and our right of way.
Nice! good to know
Another awesome vid
Thanks noah 👊
