Looks like house construction is moving in the correct direction again! The waterproofing company came out last week and fixed the job. They scraped off the green foam board from the lower half of the wall and applied another thick coating of the black tar stuff. So with almost an inch thick tar layer, almost the entire foundation was finally waterproof. One little spot was touched up again on Monday and a new layer of foam board was applied to finish it off. Today they put the drain tile back in (and added the drain tile behind the crawlspace that they forgot about last time). The clinkers that the guys dug out of the trench were dumped back into the trench and a new load of clinkers was added as well. The goal is to finished the back filling and remaining grading/excavation so that they're ready to pour the garage slab by the end of next week.
Done for the day, but plenty of clinkers to move tomorrow.
Dirt back fill will go on top of the clinkers to grade away from the house for positive drainage.
The new drain tile for behind the crawlspace.
The clinkers are covered with a protective fabric and then dirt is filled on top.
The dirt and rock piles in front of the house are being pushed around to allow the backhoe to get through. Hopefully most of the dirt will be used for back fill.
