That is daylight robbery! Maybe I was way way too cheap but I hired one a few years back for a few stumps and I was charging about £60 a stump.. back then though I really had no idea. Kind of wish I hadn't given up the gardening and spent the day grinding stumps for a living
Thanks for doing another good video mate Was always interested in seeing how a stump grinder worked! Thought there was loads to it as I know people charge an absolute fortune. Maybe one day for me, Thanks mate
I could really use a stump grinder to get it out of my moms lawn. That works great. First video I seen a stump grinder being used. I really enjoyed this video brother.
I got a quote to grind down a line of 12 spruce stumps about 1 foot across - £575. Decided against it, and I'm going to hire a grinder instead for about £110.
To be fair, it will only take a few minutes to take the top off, but to take the whole thing takes longer. That stump will rot and a hole will develop where you grass it. No lt trying to be a dick, bit I have a few machines and we always remove the whole thing.
I agree on some jobs mainly private houses we do grind them out totally but it’s up to budgets and on commercial jobs they aren’t interested in spending the money and just want a quick fix.
Nice one Scott. I was surprised it’s 3k. Considering it’s just an engine. Frame. Few bearings and a disc with teeth. Ok Honda engine will cost a bit. If Camon reduced the price by half without so promising on quality they will sell a lot more
Nicely done bro. Those stump grinders are great. I'm hoping to get my hands on one for a day or two this year
Thanks mate. They certainly do a good quick job.
Great machine and the good thing with those teeth is you can turn them and get 3x uses out of them before changing, great video too as always
Yes you’re right Ben. We should get a good life out of the teeth. Thanks for watching.

There’s definitely money in them mate.
400 pound for a 20-30 mins is a joke mate. i would of charged 75 pound. 30 for the hour that i am there. 45 for machine use. good video
Some people get greedy mate. There’s a difference between making decent money and robbing people but some people prefer to do it still.

Easy job for easy money mate. Just got to be reasonable.

Thanks Bill. They’re a great piece of kit to fill in out of season work.
@@scottellwoodgardening287 Your very welcome. Oh yes I believe that for sure.
Honest work bud 💪🏽💪🏽

Wow £575 that’s what I mean there is good money to be made on this work.
I made a pretty decent amount from grinding stumps earlier!
Great stuff William. It’s an easy job to get the money in.
Just a quick question, is it easy to get it in the back of the van easy enough
It’s manageable on my own but ideally a 2 man job. I drag it up ramps myself.
Stump grinding is a good money earner in Australia but the machines costly
Same here buddy but you can pay for machine quickly with jobs.
These machines make people a lot of money so no need to sell cheap
They’re certainly a money maker mate.

I agree mate but they’re all about the same. Toro do a similar one for the same money. Return on investment is quick so i wasn’t to bothered.
