How’s it going everybody? It’s Lucas Scheele with KC Pier and Kansas City Property Guys and today we’re actually out in Gladstone, Missouri doing a little bit of a foundation project in a crawl space. And lucky for us, we got Brian Dufour, our director of operations for KC Pier, here on site today and he’s going to explain exactly what we’re doing. So let’s jump right into this.
Lucas Scheele:
How’s it going Brian?
Brian Dufour:
So far so good.
Lucas Scheele:
Where are we at today?
Kansas City Crawl Space Repair
Brian Dufour:
Today we are in Gladstone, Missouri. What we’re working on is a crawl space repair right now. We are putting in 24 I-beam braces as you can see in the back. We’re getting everything prepped and cut so we can get in the basement to install them. The good thing about this job is this is actually for a realtor and a house that is about to close. We are doing the job this week so they can close Monday and we can make the transaction a lot easier for him during the process. We should be done with this job tomorrow, depending on how the weather holds up for us in the crawl space.
Lucas Scheele:
How’s it going today, Brian?
Brian Dufour:
So far so good.
Lucas Scheele:
Awesome. Where are we at?
Brian Dufour:
Today we are day two in Gladstone. We are doing the beams. As you saw earlier in the video, there is 24 I-beam braces going in. Right now everything is lagged to the floor joist, and then what we’re doing right after lunch is we’re about to mix the concrete and pour the holes full and rebar them to the foundation to support the walls. And then out here what you see is, there was a ton of water in the basement, so what we had to do was, we put a pump in the corner and this is just the trench that we’re going to do for the discharge. We got it dug, now we just have to plumb everything in, run the lines, and then backfill. And we should be done here in a couple of hours and wrapped up.
