    Wow! What you can get done while trying to out run Mother Nature is just short of amazing. Outstanding Job guys, that wall looks dam good. Hats off to the neighbor who let you do what you needed to do to get the job done right. Keep up the good work guys and I'll do my part and watch.

      Great job guys, you can really hussle when the rain is threatening to turn the dirt to mud. Curious if you had to have a Geo engineer design the wall? Keep them coming👍

Arron is also a great help with his skills and can not forget his skills a getting great videos for you and the UA-cam community..This one of job that shows it..By the way I am pretty sure you would get the Great Pharaohs of Egypt approval on this job,,😄😄😄

    Mike & Aaron, you did one exceptional job. I love that you took steps to return things back to the way they were prior to cutting into the soil. I also admire that you spoke kindly of the neighbor who allowed you passage through his land to complete the monumental task of saving a home. Impressive work you both do. You're a great team and you both never fail to provide quality work. Have a fine week. Oh BTW, I visited your live video with you and your son but it was a bit too busy for me but you had some great viewer comments. Heck, you even had a viewer say "Hi, from Brazil". Now what channel gets followers from other countries to comment on their live vids? Again, great work guys. Can't wait for your next job. 👍🏽🤠 8/21/23

    Aaron, Remember if lightning can travel through 5 or more miles the 3 inches of rubber on the tracks is not much of a safety factor.
    Great job done in the usual manner.
    Lots of explanation of why you do it as you do. You give enough information to help beginners in the industry of what works for you so they can get better.

    Excellent work! The whole place / area looks totally new and, much better than when first approached. The work y'all put into it shows that you also consider the conditions, post job conclusion. This consideration I would say, is in terms of how future conditions could affect the newly created retaining wall & "riff-raff."
    I especially like / appreciate, how you also took the time to improve some of the neighbors' land, as it sloped into the area y'all were working on.
    Kudos for that as well.
    Peace!!

    Such a good neighbor. Willing to work with the DP crew to ensure your neighbor's house doesn't end up a pile of debris on your property is a blessing. Rerouting the creek so it flows in the proper direction is a plus. One thing is for sure, that rain will put all that work to the test and get the grass going a lot sooner. If the property owners keep the trees from taking over, they will have access to that newly sculpted area for recreation. A great family picnic area! Another great job by the DP crew! Looking forward to seeing how it is looking in the future!
