Is it really close to your house? You could build a fire on the ground, if you have enough wood. Keep it burning for 2 days and spread the coals around occasionaly. Invite the whole neighborhood over for a barbecue. :popcorn:

Nope. It's right up next to the house.

Any way you can enclose it with a tarp(1 foot high) and just pump hot air into it?

I couldn't see why you can't thin that ground freeze buy keeping it warm over night.

I don't have a hot air pumper! It's going to get below zero tonight.

Ha-freaking-Haha... Turds.

I bet that ground sits in the shade most of the winter, huh? Tell them to get a bigger backhoe.

$15 / day and they'll create summer like temps.

If you could make a tarp bow 2 feet high, I'm sure it would work.

But good luck.

I would definitely burn the place down. The tarp would catch fire. It would them blow on the house. My neighborhood convenants don't allow me to burn the house down with authorization from the HOA board :D

One of the big problems we have up here is that the ground is so hard, even when it's not frozen. It's all granite.

What if they used a jack hammer to break through the frost barrier first, in something like a 5x5 area. Could a backhoe get through it after that?

They tried that one. They rented a jack hammer and couldn't get through it. The guys who's doing the work has a big backhoe, but it doesn't have bucket on it that has appropriate teeth for tearing it out. He own the backhoe.

Would you mind if I shipped you my backyard and let it sit in yours for a few days?
