I've been on this forum for a while, just reading and learning. I purchased 50 acres 18 yrs ago with a watering hole for livestock. Never would hold much water. I purchased a KX080 excavator a year ago to work on my place a nod build new ponds. I fixed my leaking watering hole. I purchased Mike Otto's book Just add Water. Great reading. Now I have neighbors asking me to fix their ponds. I'm not sure where to start with pricing and bidding, or just as a base. Measurements of cubic yards, hourly rates? Any input would be appreciated.
