All national building codes and standards require the removal of organic matter from under any structural concrete. Once you put reinforcement in concrete...

    What Attachments Do You Use?

    After you rake and level you back yp with a harley rake with the rake rotating forward to install the dimples. While doing so it will remove the tire tracks. Tes, it will turn the vast majority of existing grass into the soil. Hope this helps

    What do you use your skid steer for?

    New Holland L785 issue

And lastly, the tires on it are pretty rough (and a couple have slow leaks) so I'm planning to put new on. There are some cheaper tires on...
