The ground around here
What the dirt does in this part of the county
Kirkwood is one of the older suburbs in the county and the housing stock shows it. Mature trees, narrow side yards, long established grades and drainage that predates modern stormwater practice by a long way. A great deal of the ground work here is correcting decisions made a very long time ago.
Access is the constraint that comes up most. Older lots often have a garage, a fence line or a neighbour where a machine would want to go, which is why the walk-through starts with the route in rather than the work itself. Compact machines reach places a full-size excavator cannot, and that is frequently what makes a Kirkwood job possible at all.
