Thank you for making and sharing.
Minnesota --> Frostline --> 4'. Got it.

man that sucks..here in California you just kick the ground ans that's already the frost line haha

[@tompeters4234]

I hate having to redo what should have been done right in the fist place. Are you going to confront the contractor with this for some reimbursement ?

[@BenjaminSahlstrom]

Yeah that's tough. I don't think I'll bother them about it. Sometimes its not worth souring relations over little things although this was a lot of work to fix. This is one reason I prefer to do things myself whenever possible.

@@BenjaminSahlstrom Some relations should be soured. They didn't care enough to do it right, so I would advise against using them again.

Ben. How deep below the frost line do you have to go? ie…if frontline is 24” ….do you have to go 48” or? Thx

Backhoes can’t dig holes?

[@BenjaminSahlstrom]

Yeah but brother-in-laws work much better.
