  • Removing an old driveway and cutting area for larger new driveway. I hauled out 2 loads of concrete and dirt and leveled the area out for the owner to come and pour the new driveway. The job took about 3.5 hours to complete. Thanks for watching! #EliteEarthworks #Takeuchi #TakeuchiTB153fr

    Nice job on the tear out. I agree with you on the size part of the excavators. I think what we have and what you have are fairly well sized for most of the work we do.

    • @eliteearthworksllc
      @eliteearthworksllc  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Jared Ellis thank you! And I agree seems like it’s a great all around size. Maybe a little small on some projects but just right for the majority of the time.
