Allen and I spent yesterday finishing up the sewer drain line. We did have to make another parts run to Lowes to get some elbows to offset the second bathroom drop-in. It was about 1/2 inch off of the main branch line.
My neighbor Bennie came over and helped us get the jog in the line and final connections done. Everything is now connected and can be used.
This morning's project for Allen was adding a railing to the porch steps and replacing the front porch light. Both are done and looking good.
While he was doing that, I made sure the pitch on the sewer line was correct and put a gravel base under the line. Correcting the pitch also raised the line exit out of the end and required several wheelbarrow loads to even out the support.
More gravel was also needed along the line path out to the tank.
After getting it graded, I took what remaining dirt I had and started covering the line. That will also help keep the pipe from moving and messing up the grade. More dirt is needed for smoothing it out.
