Hydrotech Root Barrier
Last Friday Brendan, Ian and Ollie installed the root barrier donated by American Hydrotech on top of the waterproofing, then the men recycled the old insulation with one layer as a protection layer and then placed the American Hydrotech drainage layer.
We all are shown putting a bucket of ceremonial earth on top of the gallery.
