Digging A Trench

This week the builders used a circular saw with a diamond-impregnated blade to cut a one and a half foot wide trench through the concrete around the house. The workers continue to prep the house ahead of the lifting of the house, scheduled tentatively for August 10th. What's clear after the concrete removal is that the current grade of the path around the house is at least 6 inches higher than it originally was. This meant that the concrete was in direct contact with the redwood causing wood rot at the base that will need to be repaired.
