I was going to mention the cost, but forgot to. It was initially $650, but after developing a blister on my palm, I asked about how much to scrape the grass off the top. So $680 was the final price. I rounded it to $700 and had him fill in a few low spots with the scrapings.
BTW, his dually got stuck dumping the load and had to use his bobcat to pull it out.
The price of labor and rock in South Carolina must be a lot less than most areas of the Country! You got a wonderful deal. In my area, a HVAC guy will cost about $150 per hour, and you got this guy, his truck, crush and run material, bobcat, all for $650 for a entire day! Even renting a bobcat for 1/2 day here is $450 including delivery, and $650 for a full day.
Looks like you got two loads of crush and run? At 6 tons each? Overall the project looks great. I am glad you paid the extra $30 to avoid moving the dirt by hand with a shovel!
Putting down the screen under the rock was a great idea, and will prevent the rock from disappearing in the soft clay.
