  • I'm doing a job removing a norway maple stump for a customer. Along the way I hit a big rock! That was only a minor setback as I dug the rock out of the ground and finished the job.

    That's why you can use a pressure washer to expose what's underneath and around the roots without digging . simply dig out a slurry ditch first so the water can drain out and away .

    Do you have to do an 811 dig call before doing this in case there are buried water, gas, sewer, cable, etc?

      Yes we have a similar call before you dig service that we have to call.

    You could have accomplished the same thing by setting it on fire a few times. Would have also cost less.

    But you did not remove the stump? You just made a difference pile of wood? It says removal service!

    • @gdchannel73
      @gdchannel73  Před rokem +2

      Yeah I guess you're right, it went from a stump to mulch and dirt! Most of the jobs I do is just grinding the stump, chip removal is usual separate. A lot of homeowners just use it for much or spread it around in their gardens.
