We removed this large stump in Spokane.  It generated a massive amount of chips. It is very important to clean up chips as you go so that none of the stump gets missed.

5 foot in diameter Dutch Elm.  Due to the amount of rock inside the stump, that was  the closest the arborist was able to cut it.

Our small track machine is ideal to remove and load chips. Very easy on lawns this makes for efficient chip removal.

This stump made over 7 yards of chips at about 1000 pounds per yard is 3 and a half tons.

Stump is almost done, ideally in this situation, the grinded stumps are ground 4 inches below grade.

We leveled this ground in the backyard in order to put a perfectly flat patio in place, the results speak for themselves!

We did this excavation on South Hill Spokane, WA,  he did all the hard work after, and it turned out great.

 

 

In this case it was prep for pavers and concrete, but the concept is very similiar – a good foundation of compacted gravel in several lifts. 4 to 6 inches on this job will give a long lasting base. The boards are screed boards and the one in the center will be pulled after the sand is screened. The others will remain as edging to retain gravel, sand and pavers.

This is a laser grading project we did here in Spokane. We prepped the site for a prefabricated garage. The grade was +/- 1/4″ when the laser grading was complete, which is very tight.
