Most important thing when renovating a wooden house - drainage | Don't Waste Ep. 10

I have 10 earthworks to do, the most important of which is digging an approximately 120-meter trench for drainage to remove ground water from the house's foundation. In this episode, we will also be repairing 300 meters of our access road. Currently it has made a high hump and our car is rubbing the road with its undercarriage. I also have other minor work to do - improving the riverbed, repairing the caravan driveway and a few others intresting projects. #Damdyla habitat #earthworks #excavator #housedrainage #Frenchdrainage 00:00 Delivery of equipment - excavators and wheeled dumpers from the rental company. 00:39 I draw a map of our habitat and explain the scope of work to be done with the excavator. 02:10 I replace the bucket in the excavator and make the first excavation.
