What a transformation for Geoff. You went from a big hole in the ground to able to walk on the first floor. Just backfilling the place, getting rid of the dirt piles is making the place drain better, and the guys have a safe place to start the next level. Great job, Chris.
I have watched you on just about every show you have ever been on !! I am a 66 year old partially disabled /retired paramedic, I also used to restore cars {corvettes, Deloreans and Bricklins too!!! } I appreciate your attention to detail and your work ethic. I can no longer do restorations but your shows fondly bring back memories for me! Thank you for doing your shows, I really enjoy them. I am also in Tennessee on Dale Hollow Lake about 100 miles east of Nashville.
Getting old with health issues sucks. I'm 69 and I can't restore mechanical pinball games after having a defibrillator/pacemaker installed. I still do service calls on digital pinball and arcade games, jukeboxes and pool tables. Next spring I'll finally hand up my staple gun for good after I recover the last 2 pool tables I do once a year for my favorite bar owner. I'll continue doing service calls for him but a good friend I trained a couple decades ago will take over covering them. It'll be the end of a 42 year professional amusement vending equipment career. Time gets us all eventually. Watching Cris, Mike Dirt Perfect, Andrew Camarata and a few others keeps me sane, somewhat.
Good thing you knew how much dirt you was gonna need for all that backfilling, looks like your going to have just enough , when it's all said, and done !! Got it shaping up Chris !! Looking good Man !! Great as Always !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next...
Chris, love how Geoff's new home is starting to look now, with the rock and the dirt mostly in place. Waiting for the rest of this to be done, and Geoff starting on his first floor.
I remember those days when someone near the neighborhood we had about 14 boys and if anyone was working with heavy equipment we were all there watching for hours and really enjoyed it. So thanks, Chris, for bringing old memories back.
We ARE those kids and because of these videos being on YT, we can still hang out and watch. The differences are many but for me, I get a kick out of riding along with the operator and the close up views from where we would never be allowed to stand and watch. Chris is one of my favorites because he narrates his actions without sounding like he is being videotaped. It’s like he is talking to his buddy and not doing a presentation. When you add in that he can look at a pile of dirt and imagine it redeployed in such a manner that he can anticipate finished levels. It’s almost like he has been doing it all his life.
No kidding!! You best believe, if there was a trac-loader anywhere near my house, me and the boys were dead on it. Pools being dug with a backhoe, lot clearing, it didn't matter we loved it all. I don't know what's happened to young boys these days? I guess they're sadly inside playing video games.
I haven't seen a single rebar cap yet. I'm not a big fan of osha, but i am a religious believer in capping rebar. Anyone who trips and falls on an exposed piece of rebar is going to have a bad day. Elevated it aint a big deal, but at ground level, thats where it gets dangerous.
OSHA saved me and my second shift Ironworker welding crew oj the 70's at a shop were safety was the last concern for us welders. It was death waiting to happen. They came in on a surprise inspection and shut us down for 2 days till the shop was clean and organized. Np more cutting torch hoses everywhere. No more 440 power cables in areas wee water was leaking from the roof. 273 items got written up. We got paid to straighten out that shop including double weekend overtime for Saturday and Sunday nothing shifts working 10 hours both days. Monday morning the re-inslection passed and the shop reopened. No fines for the owner because we stuck up for him. That earned us one heck of a nice catered lunch that Friday by him.
Its sure nice to see some one who loves what they do for a living. Have watched you for a few yrs now and I'm always impressed with your skill and the amount of equipment you have added to your collection. My favorite is the D7....old school...bear skin rugs and stone knives!!
Nice looking backfill and grade out, and that is one lot of dirt to move, 953 fits the bill for this part of the job. Thanks for the update, enjoyed watching.
What a difference you made just by moving those dirt piles,place really taking shape.I believe y’all will have to bring in a lot more dirt,before this is over.great work,great video.just keep doing what you do best.be safe.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Had yourself a MBTS cameraman who did a fantastic job on the loader videoing. Huge change to the worksite and access to the Bealy Good mansion with this amount of backfill.
I did not think you could do that in a day. Wow that hole on the back filled up fast. Looks a better then started. Hope Mr. Bealy Good is having a good vacation. Thank you and have an awesome week.
Chris, you're doing a great job with the back filling. It shouldn't be surprising because everything you do is amazing, and it is a pleasure watching you do the job you were hired to do, and you take great pride in doing your job. Thank you, Chris, and may God bless you.
Indeed you moved some dirt. That looks amazing and honestly, it's looking like original ground already. From the duck pond in front to this when you are done, it would be interesting to know just how much dirt you've moved on this property. You are an artist, Chris, with the earth your canvas. And you sculpt beautiful landscapes that are a joy to see. Thank you for sharing this.
Looks like you might need to dredge that sediment pond to get enough fill dirt before this is over. Those are big dirt piles but those are also big holes to fill.
Hi Chris, thanks for another great video and it is marvellous how packed that dirt has gone. Keep up the great work your doing and the satisfaction I get seeing each video. Thanks Stephen
Awesome way to wake up ftom a nap ? Watch an episode of Chris Letsdig18 backfilling Geoff's new house under construction. This is a real reslity show. No script. No fake drama just straight up good old fashioned hard work. Mu kind of entertainment.
Great Work the Basement from the Mansion on all Side to Backfilling. The Filling make You Perfect, and with the Roller to Compression. The Terrain grading You that the farther Building from the Mansion Mansion from a hard Ground is to make. Your Work however Perfect Make. The Video first Qualität. Thanks
Idk if it’s just me but track-type loaders seem to have more torque and lugging ability compared to wheel loaders when loading. I would think it’s due to the tracks having more traction too.
You're very efficent in that machine. The track loader is nice for this application. They still have a place in construction. I dug a few basements with a track loader before ecavators became a thing in my life.
You have managed to capture the 3 month hungry kitten audience which is quite a feat as you offer not kitten food on the screen. Good sleep inspiration too as the hubby has passed out watching.
Seems like every 953 I've ever run or been around the turbo would spool back up faster than that when you charge into the pile. Not sure how they would test the boost on that. Might be something you mechanic knows more about.
Now that dirt is up against the foundation us viewers really get an idea of the size of this place. Think you missed your calling for a Factor Sales rep Chris🤣
What a big case of UA-cam weirdness! I got the notification yesterday on this video, but wanted to wait til this morning to watch, but it was gone this morning. No clue what they're up to, but, anyhoo, it's looking good, Chris.
Anyone else catch that Chris was backfilling from outside of the taper toward the foundation? Four way Francine can pick out roots. The old girl has almost as much push as Ol`Betty. Didn`t take long to reduce the 'saved' dirt piles.

He definitely keeps us sane. Its nice to see the ending also. Feel like i am in there with him with my shovel sometimes.
The construction guys will love you for getting that done. What a difference it will make for them.
Good job Chris
Just hope it doesn't turn into a a mud field with the chances of another storm.
That loader was the MVP on the jobsite that day!👍
Chris you take pride in your work.
Methodical, efficient, & a great operator. No matter what machine.
Good old-fashioned dirt spreading. Perfect saturday night viewing.
The 953 makes a lot of sense seeing it in action here. It's like a big skid steer!
Mr Bealy is the new version of the money pit 😆 🤣 😂
Good thing you knew how much dirt you was gonna need for all that backfilling, looks like your going to have just enough , when it's all said, and done !! Got it shaping up Chris !! Looking good Man !! Great as Always !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next...
You’re doing great as always, but I must admit BealyGood farm is turning into a beautiful place. That big house overlooking the lake, perfect!
Chris, love how Geoff's new home is starting to look now, with the rock and the dirt mostly in place. Waiting for the rest of this to be done, and Geoff starting on his first floor.
Geoff is going to come home and wonder who stole his dirt piles. That was a lot of fill material moved.
Geoff 's dirt pile stocks have plummeted courtesy of let's dig 18😂
Times have changed for sure. When I was a kid back in the 60's that wooden fence would be full of boys watching every move Chris made.
Now the kids watch on the net. :)
I remember those days when someone near the neighborhood we had about 14 boys and if anyone was working with heavy equipment we were all there watching for hours and really enjoyed it. So thanks, Chris, for bringing old memories back.

It's residential. OSHA is pretty much non existent there
@@CraigGrant-sh3in My post wasn't preaching osha regs. Its was pointing out something that could potentially get somebody hurt.
Quality work whenever Chris is on the job!

Good Job Chris,
The Bealy's will get a happy surprise when they get home
What a difference a day makes!
If you ever get tired of letsdig18, Mr. Full Buckets would be a good name for you.
So full he is on the tipping point with that heavy Cat. Lifting those back tracks off the ground.
Actually it needs to be “Just one more bucket full”
Let’s call him “Chris Guins”! - lol
@@thomasleonard1846
🤣 I think that one is taken.

Mr B trying his best to keep you busy.
I did not think you could do that in a day. Wow that hole on the back filled up fast. Looks a better then started. Hope Mr. Bealy Good is having a good vacation. Thank you and have an awesome week.
Just about wrapping up this side of the project!! Backfilling is coming along!!
I remember the warm days doing that it just about put me to sleep listening to the sound of that diesel humming the lullaby!
Really taking shape, gonna be an awesome home. Your efforts will shine on, throughout the years there.
I like big loaders, so I am thrilled to watch you working yours on this project.
Such great progress and yet... Google maps is right up there with you.
Pretty damm good camera work following the track loader !
Love the videos and the work you do Chris, glad to see how your business has grown over the years.
Chris, you're doing a great job with the back filling. It shouldn't be surprising because everything you do is amazing, and it is a pleasure watching you do the job you were hired to do, and you take great pride in doing your job. Thank you, Chris, and may God bless you.
🎉Man that CAT will do the job! I love watching your work!🎉❤
If this excavating thing dosen't work out Chris, you would be a shoe in for those late night infomertials.
👏👏👏
Hey Chris, Geoff is going to need more Lego's & super glue! It's amazing what you can get done in a day! Thumbs up! Jim
Jeff Bealey should feel blessed you are on the job. But I guess he already knows that.
Indeed you moved some dirt. That looks amazing and honestly, it's looking like original ground already. From the duck pond in front to this when you are done, it would be interesting to know just how much dirt you've moved on this property. You are an artist, Chris, with the earth your canvas. And you sculpt beautiful landscapes that are a joy to see. Thank you for sharing this.
That's why you seal your topsoil. It's beautiful 👊
All of the little ins and outs do make the back filling and compression a challenge.
Nothing like a 9” rain to test your grade work… Can’t wait to see how the Horse arena looks when completed, should be a beauty!
Looks like Jeff will have enough soil to fill in around his Castle 🏰/ Home.
Coffee in the morning sure speeds things up!
Chris it sure makes a difference! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Chris, you have a fantastic eye when you grade, you sure do it efficiently. Great job, starting to actually look like a home site.
Chris on site before Mr. BealyGood even stops dreaming! SHAMELESS! :)
😂😂 I drove from Orlando to get back 🎉😅
Keep running that thing and you will be wanting the 973 big brother !
Amazing how the other half live.
Hello from the Whales of August, rocky mid coast Maine, US....
Like the camera work!
That one hose behind the bucket on the 953 is really hanging low. Looks like it mike even be dragging
Looks like you might need to dredge that sediment pond to get enough fill dirt before this is over. Those are big dirt piles but those are also big holes to fill.
You must have dug up somebody’s back 40 for all that dirt! Great job of back filling!
🤣 between you and the Perkins Bros, Factor Meals must be busy ... they don't cover France, yet 😆
Looking pretty damn good Bud!!
Hi Chris, thanks for another great video and it is marvellous how packed that dirt has gone. Keep up the great work your doing and the satisfaction I get seeing each video. Thanks Stephen
I’m loving every second of this!
Great example of how each particular piece of equipment you have, has its own job efficiency.
Good job mate makes a difference someone on a machine that knows what he is doing love your work looking forward to seeing more of your videos
7 times speed right from the get…..great video cuttybone’s!
Man thats looking so awesome.
A Big job Chris,but it's changing the look already .
You sound tired , remember to take time for you.
The Cat loader did well .
1:50 Yep, that's a full load. 😁
My father was back filling a block foundation one day and rock got in the fill and pushed the wall in. He wound up in the cellar dozer and all.
Now you can see the deck! Looks like ~5' rise on the that side.
Awesome job Chris 👍🏻👍🏻
I bet Geoff is so happy that the fill is so far along that he can walk around the house and get more stuff done
good morning to you Chris..
Awesome way to wake up ftom a nap ?
Watch an episode of Chris Letsdig18 backfilling Geoff's new house under construction.
This is a real reslity show.
No script. No fake drama just straight up good old fashioned hard work.
Mu kind of entertainment.
Geoff will be so proud. He may hire you for future projects! 🤣😂
Great Work the Basement from the Mansion on all Side to Backfilling. The Filling make You Perfect, and with the Roller to Compression. The Terrain grading You that the farther Building from the Mansion Mansion from a hard Ground is to make. Your Work however Perfect Make. The Video first Qualität. Thanks
The track loader is just a giant skidsterre 😊😊
It looks great Chris, that was a disaster area when you started, all full and sloping away from the house for proper drainage, be well my friend.
5:40 It looks like you have a hose hanging down below the bucket. Can't be good for it to be dragging on stuff.
Huge difference! Awesome work!
The big kitty sure is scratching that pile up real fast. Great work as always(!
Nice work
Also how’s Charlie doing haven’t seen him in along time stay safe my friend
Idk if it’s just me but track-type loaders seem to have more torque and lugging ability compared to wheel loaders when loading. I would think it’s due to the tracks having more traction too.
Around the building is looking better with the filling spread around bro, not so naked looking as it were. Safe travels. Ken.
You're very efficent in that machine. The track loader is nice for this application. They still have a place in construction.
I dug a few basements with a track loader before ecavators became a thing in my life.
I'd advise Jeff it's about time to pick up and organize the job site.
I use to prefer rubber tired loaders to save what is left of my back, but the grading job you are doing with the 953 is quite impressive.
I found the rubber tyre loaders bounced a lot and made my back worse, I found driving crawlers made it better??? We are all different.
@@seapy2398I agree 100%! Wheel loaders get rockin & rollin. I had cervical spine damage and I swear it was from when we got rid of tracked loaders
Gonna be a nice house to have to overlook a 5 acre mudhole!!
They had 9" of rain in one day so the runoff turned the pond a little dirty... it will clear up shortly.
Geoff is quite the awesome camera operator...
I assume it's him
It was my son, Josh.
@@BealyGood Very cool. Nice to hear from you. Have a Bealy Good day.
@@BealyGood cool
Good with tech he is
It does look better.
The man with a talented plan !
Great job 👍🏻
Wow !! Great job !!! 😍😎💖🤗
Nice Video
Well, that’s entirely up to you whether it falls in the basement or not. And I would think that wouldn’t be a worry with your experience on a Dozier..
Looking good 😊
A wee bit of water would of helped mate, cheers from Bundaberg 👍
You have managed to capture the 3 month hungry kitten audience which is quite a feat as you offer not kitten food on the screen. Good sleep inspiration too as the hubby has passed out watching.
The old 953 still does a great job.
Not sure what the vision is for Château Beally Goode. Nevertheless, it won't be a shack beside a pond.
Where did you get the sheep's foot for the mini
Felco
Seems like every 953 I've ever run or been around the turbo would spool back up faster than that when you charge into the pile. Not sure how they would test the boost on that. Might be something you mechanic knows more about.
I did wonder about that, it dies at the last minute... Have only driven 951's but they would push right through the heap if you let them.
Now that dirt is up against the foundation us viewers really get an idea of the size of this place. Think you missed your calling for a Factor Sales rep Chris🤣
🤫 yah, might wake Geoff up‼️ 😂😂😂
One that be easier pushing the other way with the seven
What a big case of UA-cam weirdness! I got the notification yesterday on this video, but wanted to wait til this morning to watch, but it was gone this morning. No clue what they're up to, but, anyhoo, it's looking good, Chris.
