Default Re: Storm uprooted Euc

D Mc, and maybe others....

I know when I'm outclassed... I'll leave the stump/root-ball to people who know what they're doing. I've actually never used a stump grinder, though they're available from local rental yards, and I'm actually itching to give it a go at some other client's locations.

At other places and settings, I'm more than happy to go rent one and grind a stump down, but for *this* particular place and setting, I think it is best left to someone more professional at that type of thing.

I don't consider it "leaving the job unfinished" as this was all layed out ahead of time as how it would happen, and frankly, I'd not want to do a piss-poor job of the finish work in a neighborhood like that. The h.o. requested me to leave several cards with him as he was certain he'd get people coming by asking who the guy was cutting up his tree, and if he had my number.

I'd rather not practice that kinds stuff on the grounds of a $million+ property... although they've alot of beetled pines in the backyard I'll be removing in the future, as well as treating the as-yet unbeetled ones.
