Coating and Backfilling the Footing 
Once the footing foam cured, Tom from Weather Guard returned to add a UV protectant on it. This will keep the exposed portion of the foam from breaking down in the sun.


Here you can see the coated foam up close. You can also see where the sprayed foam overlaps and seals the original sheet foam used under the entire building.


In order to further protect the foam round the perimeter of the house, we used the new skid steer to backfill around the footing. This will protect the foam for now, and sets the stage for our final landscaping plans due next spring.


While we were at it, we prepared to repair the front sidewalk. It was pretty torn up during the sewer line installation. And since lots of college kids walk past each day, we thought it would be a good way to practice running the Monlithic Integrator cement mixer before the snow comes.
