- Tearing out concrete and brush with the Takeuchi TB153fr excavator to build a new pad.I had a small pad and a few small trees to tear out and haul off. This site is for another new construction home, once the concrete and brush are removed I'll haul in some fill dirt and build another house pad. Thanks for watching! #EliteEarthworks #Takeuchi #TakeuchiTB153fr
Great work Elite, blessed with good weather for now.
shooters option targets thank you! Lol yes for this week!
All in a day's work! Hey, at least you remembered not to pile it up on the ground instead of the truck! I think the dogs were just excited to see that lot cleaned up lol! Thanks for the video!
burningdinosaurs LoL! That’s true and I believe they were. They barked all day!
I'll bet the neighbors get a surprise when they come home from work. When they left that yard looked like crap and now it looks great‼️‼️👍
Mark Mortensen yeah I’m sure they were surprised lol! Thanks again Mark
enjoy your videos,i just found you Tue of this week.keep up the good work.
walter williams cool! Glad to hear you like it! Sorry I just saw this comment. Thanks again
Great video thanks for sharing!
tdej80 thanks for watching
Good video Jason!!!
John M. Evangelis thanks! I’m Brandon though Jason is that crazy Russian 🤣
nice job and video I am removing a small garage and pad for a new larger building. I hope my JD 35 works as well as your Takeuchi does, never removed concrete before
John Stegall it should do fine, you just need to start at a corner or a crack and start popping it up a piece at a time. Just don’t bang on the concrete with the teeth very hard on the pins and bushings. My machine also weighs a little over 12,000lbs I’m not sure what yours weighs but it should work fine
mine is 8300 pounds however I do have a SVL90-2 Kubota skid to load with
John Stegall oh yeah you will be fine then
Very Nice video! Left a big like! Hopefully I can do that kind of work soon! As I'm 15 yrs old and am very interested in construction equipment. I stop at any jobsite that's nearbye where I live and go watch the machines work! It's funny how I'm so interested in these machines but yet I've never sat or operated any of them. As in excavators, skid steers, bulldozers. I do have some forklift experience with helping my dad at work. But it gets boring after a while. Ok well
see ya at your next video! :)
Legendary Explorer that’s awesome man! I was and am still the same way, I love watching and running equipment. Have been fascinated by it since I was 6. I bet you will have no problem getting into the field. And running the forklift is great experience, teaches you to watch your surroundings and it’s great hand eye coordination which you need on every machine! Have any questions feel free to hit me up. Thanks for watching
Legendary- such a cool comment!
Good work brandon
Brandon thanks Brandon LoL!
Look at you showing off how warm you have it windows/doors open and no jacket.
8 degrees this morning when I left the dock no fun but better than the people out west thats cold so I won't complain too much.
You clean stuff up really nice and power lines can be a big pain
Josh Welner LoL! It’s getting down to 9 here tonight and 17 tomorrow. I showed off too soon lol! Yeah they have it way worse than I do! Thanks again
Nice....

Louisiana Dirt 218 I still do the editing right now, I’m trying to talk her into giving it a whirl. Thanks again
That’s the type of jobs I enjoy doing 👍
I’ve got to upgrade my excavator’s too heat & A/C or find a soft cab It’s 4 * wind blowing
Going to be a lazy day for me.
Be safe
Dennis Barr I agree I enjoy these jobs! 4 wow I don’t blame you! I would definitely be inside then!
You have a talent for the conversion of chicken poop to chicken salad Brandon,
Nice work in that bony stuff, you pretty much finished with the sewer work now in that sub-division?
Work safe brother, my best to Mrs. Elite Earthworks as well!
Doug@ the "ranch"
lakesideranch Mmmm! Such an appetizing metaphor! 😂🐔💩
@@mrs.eliteearthworks You are a sweetheart, and you have a great sense of humor!
lakesideranch thanks Doug!
lakesideranch thanks! It’s kind of my thing! Lol! I’m still working over there, can’t get dirt for the first 5 yards due to weather and they still have to build the last three. I’ll be back over there soon. Thanks again Doug
Are you still hauling hard fill over to your folks place if so that means you get to handle it again. Thanks Brandon
Cookies Services yeah I took another down there today. I probably have 25 loads to push off the side of the hill at some point! Thanks again
Hey man, tell the builder that the power company has a power line hanging directly through the middle of the lot. It gets a bit hard to put a roof on a house with that in the way going to the neighbors place. Had to deal with it once and it added 3 months to the project because the builder did not notice until the floor was being framed.
Did your town get ravaged by a tornado at some point? You seem to do a bunch of work on lots that seem to have previously had homes on them already what with the rubble and concrete pads you keep digging up and tearing out.
Ohh Paul they are suppose to be coming Monday to set a new pole and move the power. Yes most of the houses I have worked on are all on old lots from the tornado. Also makes it difficult to tell which utilities are good because they just ran new ones. Most of these homes are in the area around the old St. John Hospital that was destroyed. Thanks for watching
good job there big deal your suppose to drop that concrete in the truck to give the bed character
Bryon 6180 🤣 how did you know what I did today?! Dump trucks got a new scratch 😔
Great minds think alike 😂
Bryon 6180 that’s right!
How much would a lot like this cost?? Are all the lots that you've cleared or prepped lately for the same house builder??
Dave Guffey I think this lot was $13,000 it’s right around a .25 of an acre. Yes they are all for the same builder, he’s buying lots like crazy. Thanks again
Do you have a Meth head style bucket for the mini or just the kind with all there teeth. The grass looked tall enough I could have probably baled it lol. Looks like that machine is just an old extension of the arms. Nice job sir.
SLC Farms lol just a tooth bucket for it too! Yeah this lot had been let go for sure! Thanks again
Meth head bucket - toooo funny!!!!
how would you recommend in getting started doing this for a living
Nice video is that a magnetic laser monitor holder on the side of you dipper?We have one and it works great.
andrew dennis thank you! Yes it is, it’s super handy! I’ve just got to find another charger for my receiver so I can get back to using it on my footings and such. Thanks for watching
Interesting, doesn't look like you take the concrete to be recycled!
Do you have to over-excavate the pad before installing fill?
One I'm doing right now, digging down 4' before adding 4' of fill for the pad!
Bold Guy the concrete from this job I just took to my parents where I will push it off the hill. There was a mobile crusher set up not far from this job but they have moved it and not taking concrete right now. No we don’t have to undercut, it’s kinda crazy we haul in fill and level it off then dig the footings 30” deep to virgin ground. All these houses are on slabs, I guess it works it seems a little strange to me.
That's why I was curious, we normally gut out at least 2' and re compact for fill preparation or if no fill, one foot below bottom of footing depth!
Mainly to prevent differential settlement, giving the pad a uniform consistency!
Bold Guy we should really do that here but most of the builders don’t want to pay for that. They will in 10 years 🤣
They didn't want that here either, till houses started settling and cracking and the lawsuits started flying!!!
Started about 30 yrs ago, now it's standard procedure:)
Of course the house pad I'm doing right now, I bid for $120,000, not including septic or utilities,just house pad and driveway:)
Bold Guy holy hell! I need one of those house pads!
Just started following the channel. I like watching guys work for themselves I’d like to do that eventually. Maybe someday! But I’m curious are you pretty much like a primary contractor for the developer on that site?
Joe Zitzler cool! Thanks for checking out the channel! Yes I’m the excavating/ yard contractor for this builder. I do all of his site work start to finish on his projects. Thanks again
Did your dipper get bent close to where the bucket mounts? Maybe it was the camera angle?
walter mattson no it must be the camera angle. At least I don’t think it is, I’ll have to look in the morning now lol! Thanks again
It was definitely the camera if it was bent that much you would know
Stop the video at 11:17 and take a look. It might be the brackets for the bucket pins look funny to me.
walter mattson lol it does look bent! I think it is the brackets but man it’s hard to tell! Good eye
Just tried and the screen went black
Nice job as usual. As it’s tax time just wanted to know if working the coochie is a deductible expense? Lol joking. Stay safe!
Dall Tex LoL you know it! Thanks again
I do the same type of work but have been renting a skid and use my friends exavator looking to grow witch is a better pice to buy first? Skid or mini?
Iam leaning tward a mini as i feel like more people need diging everyone has a bucket tractor
George Odbert it really just depends on what you do more or which one you are renting more. If you have more grading type work definitely go for the skid steer first and vice versa. I would definitely get the work lined up first then look into buying one. Much better than buying a machine and hoping the work comes. Either machine can be comparable in price Felton what you are looking at.
I have customers for my home improvment biz so it will be a add on as well as my own needs with fire wood and i also scrap steel and cars iam thinking mini with a thumb it will be a cash deal so not working it every week wont be as big of a problem
George Odbert oh ok yeah the mini would probably be the way to go then. Should definitely be a big benefit to the home biz
Skids rent for 160-200 a day and mini are around 300 id love to have both but one at a time i guess
Comrade what’s all that red stuff around your coochie’s pins?!? Is it bleeding from
The bushes??? What did you do to your poor coochie????
JasonWorksAlot 🤣 yes it got injured! Sorry I just saw this comment
what a mess
thederrick1966 yeah it was kind of a wreck! Thanks again for watching
