Big jobs, small jobs, in-between jobs - film them all and I'll watch them!! Not a huge of the long site seeing tours with the drone, but short relevant drone videos are a helpful aspect. Thanks for your dedication to the channel! So many YT providers fall away after a couple of years. I know it is a hassle to edit the footage, so thanks!
All jobs are fun to watch, smaller and complex. I like how you always try to find the simplest solution. After all, simplicity is the ultimate sophistication!
Short, long, I'll watch it all. In this case, as you said, it was the simple solution that was best and it's good to know in the home owning world that some problems are easily solved.
Love the smaller jobs man. I'm grounds supervisor at a university in New England, and I have many issues just like this. Love seeing how you tackle them and comparing your solutions with the ones I come up with on campus
No job is too small to share. Everyone can relate to every project you have posted so far and gave them ideas to remedy their standing water problems around buildings and on their lawns. Keep up the good work Shawn and crew.
Another great video and I absolutely respect your professionalism, but I don’t think I could do anymore work for that customer……….respect goes both ways!
I like ALL your jobs, i like the big, multi video, multi part jobs, i like the big job all in an hour long video, i like the quick repair jobs in a 30 minute video, and i like the small jobs. All the videos are educational, and interesting, because not only do you do great work, and very interesting work, but you also do a great job editing, and producing the videos like no one else.
All the jobs you do I learn from. I am not a home owner but I look at friends homes and what they do and suggest ideas based on what I see you doing. Small jobs are great and may help the homeownerfigure out what can be done.
Hi from Norway. Thank you for your great videos. It's always a good idea to have a written agreement that outlines the key points of what has been agreed upon for any job. This can help ensure that everyone is on the same page and can prevent any misunderstandings down the line. Makes things easier.| Thank you once again, and keep up the great content!
Long and short jobs are good to watch Shawn. I came up from the basement working on a touring bicycle and sat down to get a drink of water and there was a 15 minute video to watch so that worked out great. That customer didn't have enough top soil to grow grass very well. People think they are saving money when they cut corners but in the end you spend more to correct stuff that wasn't done well.
I enjoy all of your jobs. Agreed that this customer needs to get the water away from the house in the back. Like you, I would have recommended that he lower the patio, but it is done now.
I like all the videos. Big or small. Long or short! You are one of the few channels that I watch every single video. Thus why I’m a patreon supporter haha.
I like a mix of videos. I don't always have time to watch the long videos. I do go back and find them when I have time, but a good mix would be good. I think between 15 minutes up to whatever is a good mix.
The jobs jobs that you think are obvious may be the ones we learn the most from just because the solution is simpler. Is also nice with a mix of long and short video clips.
Perfect solution to the drainage issue. Finding the water meter was a big deal since it could it be a critical issue if they needed to shut the water off from the street. Like to see how you handle both the big and small jobs!
@@GCFD I'm a little unclear. Wasn't the white flag marking the water? Also, is it the meter or the shutoff? How does the water company get a reading if it's under 3 inches of dirt? They use the wireless type here and the worker just walks the block with a reader on a short pole.
Hey Shawn, the smaller jobs are great, too. FYI, I thought the customer was a little crass bringing another guy in to do the patio before he discussed it with you. Mainly because he asked you to bid it. I guess you hafta take the good with the bad when dealing with certain customers in that you still get part of the job to make money. Thanks Shawn. Enjoy as always. Keep em comin, small or long!!
Long or short, as long as I see the water flowing well in the end, that's what I like. The advantage to the smaller ones is that it increases the frequency of your posts, which I also like.
I would say both types of jobs are great. I appreciate either, as you always have great content regardless. Sometimes you may need small jobs to fill voids in your schedule or to fulfill YT requirements maybe. And, small jobs are things we, as homeowners, like to see as they are often common to our needs. I run a small one man business and most often do little things others may not want to do, so I love seeing these as well. And, as is displayed in THIS episode, small jobs, can affect big or effective changes. Be well Shawn!
You think the front yard was a DIY disaster? No professional groundworks guys would cover a water meter. The guy probably thought he could just get a delivery of top soil and spread it out and seed it. There are homeowners who think they can do jobs themselves, but its a Destroy It Yourself disaster. These smaller jobs should be included, as your Subs watch every vid you create. Jamie is an excellent camera operator as well.
For some constructive feedback; I prefer bigger jobs, but you’ve got a good sense for what to film. This being a good example of a simple solution. I also hang out for an after rain “proof” shot. I think the videos could be edited shorter though. I often find myself skipping or fast forwarding the more repetitive parts e.g. shifting bucket after bucket of dirt, I thought this video was good in that regard. Keep that water flowing! 😊
Thanks for your feedback! I really do try to not have too much redundancy in these videos. I don't look at how long they are, but how much detail to include so you get a feel for the job. 👍
Yeah the front was pretty easy. I would have been pissed if you got to do the front and he wants to do the back when you get there. Somebody else is doing it. Like you said I would have dropped that porch down. I knew you'd be back just by the way it was done. Either way you do good videos long or short. It doesn't matter but yeah I wouldn't have been happy on that job. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
I felt the same way after I realized what happened. I decided to continue with the job and try to keep a good attitude. The homeowner was great to work with.
I prefer the longer videos, not to be taken the wrong way but they relax me enough to fall asleep to. I do watch it again the next day though so it'll probably be better view wise for you haha. I think I've watched every video you've put up though (the trailer builds being my favorite) so I'm down for any vidso you put out. Keep up the good work! 😊🇬🇧
13:51 "Obviously I didn't need two dump trucks up there". That became immediately apparent to me when the revised scope was revealed. I was thinking that what was originally a two-man job turns into basically a one-man job. No disrespect to Jeremy, but that didn't leave him with much to do. But I guess having a willing extra pair of hands on just about any job is better than working solo ?
couple of questions, LOL 1. does this experience change your process at all, inasmuch as maybe scouting out the location of the water meter before starting a grading job? 2. do you still allow customers, wanting to save money, to seed/straw themselves, given that this example ultimately failed and leaves a bad look on what is still one of your jobs? always enjoy the videos! Thank you for taking the time to record and share this one with us!!!
In my yard, the sidewalk and driveway have sunken over the 30 years since they were installed so they are now below the level of the surrounding ground. Did you consider lowering the ground on this project an additional inch or so to allow for possible future settling ?
Another great video, Shawn! I love a mix of the smaller and bigger jobs. I'm sure these are easier to edit. I like pausing all your videos at the beginning and trying to figure out your solution before you start talking about it. I nailed it on this one down to the homeowner originally wanting a channel drain lol. I'm also wondering if they've experienced problems with their gutters emptying right into the flower beds in the front.
I like longer post. As far as doing more work for them I'd pass. They didn't tell you that you did not get the patio job till the day you got there ready to start on the front the day of . They had all ready been working on it. If they would have said something when they knew that they could save $5 ( like someone said in the comments ) which they knew days/weeks before. That could have been different but that's me.
with in the next year that homeowner will be calling you back to fix the issue with the patio in theback. And realizing he should have stuck with you for the patio job.
I have a feeling that's exactly what will happen. I didn't really talk about how the contractor prepped the area for the concrete, but I shared the pictures with all my friends.
I would politely decline the patio job after what the owner did. Wouldn't have given him any free advice either. If i were betting i would say he will look for the lowest bid for doing the gutter. I agree with other comments about not doing business with folks like him.
@@GCFD @ CPE Yeah after your comment i would have to agree, Given what we have seen whats happened before etc etc... Given the benefit of a doubt cant really hold water ( literally ) for this one... Would hold out and wait for the callback if you should get it.... Cant spend too much time with clients like this... Content is content & this once again shows the factors of faulty builds = Its all good
I would not have blamed you if you had packed up and went home without doing anything for him. Sometimes you have to fire the customer. I think what they did was disrespectful and I think you are nicer than you needed to be. But you are a southern gentleman Shawn. Keep up the great videos.
Did you spray that concrete off before leaving the home? I would feather out around the patio with dirt and bury PVC drain lines for the gutters. Must be awesome to have a huge fall in the backyard to run drain pipes too. I’m in south Louisiana and everything’s flat.
Why higher multiple contractors? I never understood people who have one guy do the concrete driveway the someone else do the patio and someone else do the sidewalk it’s stupid. You can get a better deal if you have one person do it all in the end negotiations go a long way. Great video as always. Keep up the good work.
@@GCFDyou get what you pay for tho you would have considered the drainage. A lot of concrete workers don’t consider drainage after it leaves the concrete. where you look at the big picture. Keep it up I love all the videos you put out so any jobs you can film.
I had 2 houses where there Internet and Phone lines were out . Trouble was one householder piled about 2m of dirt on top of the Pit from the yard . I've got photos where it looks like i'm in a hole to China I had to dig down to so I could repair both of them at once
Great video Shawn...don't really pay attention to the length, short or long. All good. I really dislike customers like this with the bait and switch. Try and get a better price on the initial job with promises of the bigger job. Old game but still works. Business lesson here Shawn.
If he would have talked to you about the patio you would have put pvc drains in the concrete and worked with your gutter guy. Plus the slope and grade would have been right. There's a book out there for this. Common sense. From the 1890's.
I agree the back patio slab is too high, IMO you want them to have a step down to allow the rainwater to bounce about 6 inches off the ground & not spatter all over the door-jams. I also question if that home is Floodplain where they need permits for slabs filing in areas that water is suppose to be stored during the flood events. I also don't like that they are going up & increasing the slope of the backyard, I forget the legal limit but I think it's 45 degree slopes in most county drainage manuals or you need safety railings for injury insurance liability issues. I'd also not that if the concrete guy buried organic debris & deconstruction debris larger than 3 inches in size then he created rodent habitat under that slab, if he did then all his work might be taller b/c of how much domestic-waste is under what he does. I am not in business but I don't work with homeowners like that, not for money & not for free. IMO that culture comes from bad/outdated relator advice from what I have seen in my area.
It's Jobs like this that make me wonder why the Cable and Internet Companies aren't held to the same standards as all other Utilities that are required to bury their lines/pipes deep enough to protect them from surface grading work like this... Everyone else has to stick their lines/pipes 18 inches or more below the surface so why are the Cable/Internet Companies allowed to stick their lines 2-4 inches below the surface?

I like anything you choose toproduce, your years in education show in the way you explain WHY you make your decisions. That is rare.
No job is too small to share. Everyone can relate to every project you have posted so far and gave them ideas to remedy their standing water problems around buildings and on their lawns. Keep up the good work Shawn and crew.
Thank you Dave! This was a great example of a simple effective fix.
Another great video thanks from Manchester UK
I like all of the videos. I like that you do what is best for the customer.
Doing the right thing shows your integrity. Great job!
Thank you Servant!
The more simple, the best !
I senjoy your content long and short so just keep doing what you do!
Thank you Brian!
We like all your videos. Simple and/or complex.
Thanks
I had that problem too. 60+ years of lawn growth and buildup and all the pathways were like canals. My son and I dug out the entire lawn by hand.
Another great video and I absolutely respect your professionalism, but I don’t think I could do anymore work for that customer……….respect goes both ways!
Always a good day when I see a new Gate City video dropped.
I'll watch whatever you upload...👍
I love how they went back and buried the water meter.

I bet he'll be calling you back once that patio is done 😂 dude didn't look like he knew up from down.
Haha I agree but I had no input with the patio...
A job's a job. 👍

Time to invest into a sod cutter. Remove the grass, pull some dirt, put the grass back and done!

For sure! This customer was mostly interested in cost. So we did the minimum and he was happy!

funny how the homeowner filled the watermeter again after exposing it. ^^ looks like he dont like the look of the watermeter. great quick job agiin
As always nice video.... The video must be recorded months ago. It looks like high summer.
13:51 "Obviously I didn't need two dump trucks up there". That became immediately apparent to me when the revised scope was revealed. I was thinking that what was originally a two-man job turns into basically a one-man job. No disrespect to Jeremy, but that didn't leave him with much to do. But I guess having a willing extra pair of hands on just about any job is better than working solo ?
1:00 WTF happened to the truck?
I love it when a cheap customer decides not to use GCFD and then regrets it later.
couple of questions, LOL
1. does this experience change your process at all, inasmuch as maybe scouting out the location of the water meter before starting a grading job?
2. do you still allow customers, wanting to save money, to seed/straw themselves, given that this example ultimately failed and leaves a bad look on what is still one of your jobs?

Eight months and homeowner can’t grow a new front lawn?
Now that’s talent!
PS - small jobs are ok

Simple is usually best. But this was probably cheaper than installing drains, a sump, and sump pump.
It was way cheaper and better than installing some crazy drainage system. 👍
Your bigger more complicated projects are way more interesting.

Did you spray that concrete off before leaving the home? I would feather out around the patio with dirt and bury PVC drain lines for the gutters. Must be awesome to have a huge fall in the backyard to run drain pipes too. I’m in south Louisiana and everything’s flat.

Very awkward at the start of the job: "What are you doing here??"
It was very awkward indeed Ricky. I was not happy.
Great video Shawn...don't really pay attention to the length, short or long. All good. I really dislike customers like this with the bait and switch. Try and get a better price on the initial job with promises of the bigger job. Old game but still works. Business lesson here Shawn.
If he would have talked to you about the patio you would have put pvc drains in the concrete and worked with your gutter guy. Plus the slope and grade would have been right.
There's a book out there for this. Common sense. From the 1890's.

I also don't like that they are going up & increasing the slope of the backyard, I forget the legal limit but I think it's 45 degree slopes in most county drainage manuals or you need safety railings for injury insurance liability issues. I'd also not that if the concrete guy buried organic debris & deconstruction debris larger than 3 inches in size then he created rodent habitat under that slab, if he did then all his work might be taller b/c of how much domestic-waste is under what he does.
I am not in business but I don't work with homeowners like that, not for money & not for free. IMO that culture comes from bad/outdated relator advice from what I have seen in my area.
I would not be going back to that job for future work. All jobs are post worthy!
Was mudjacking the sidewalk not an option? Or would that be more expensive?
And they still covered the water meter.😖
👍
I think you should have been given the patio job!
Must be tempting to tell customer the back patio should have been poured a foot lower and you want no part of a job you can't guarantee.
Yes I mentioned that I would have dropped it down, but I don't want the homeowner to feel too bad. It's a thin line...
When's the Ford going to get a new hood 😁😁
The GoPro lens makes it hard to visualise the slope (it looks like the road is higher than the house in parts). But yeah , great fix
I know the gopro doesn't do slope any justice. I make some mountain biking videos and same thing...
12:27, no way you think that retaining wall is going to hold up all the earth and water coming down.
Why didnt you put topsoil back, the grass looks like crap.
It's Jobs like this that make me wonder why the Cable and Internet Companies aren't held to the same standards as all other Utilities that are required to bury their lines/pipes deep enough to protect them from surface grading work like this...
Everyone else has to stick their lines/pipes 18 inches or more below the surface so why are the Cable/Internet Companies allowed to stick their lines 2-4 inches below the surface?
👍👍
Did Miguel jump u on patio JOB,,,,KMFAO
LOL - that's what I thought at first too, but the guy seemed too quiet to be Miguel !
