"Other companies wanted to take down my fence panel to get their equipment in. They brought a compact tracked machine that slid right through my 36" gate. Outstanding job."

What Florence Homeowners Say About Stump Grinding
Stumps ground out, chips managed and lawns left ready across Florence and the surrounding county.
I keep the Florence garden beds along that fence line, so they angled the grinder and left the beds untouched. The chips went straight onto my mulch pile.
Three stumps left from an old orchard on our Florence property. Doing them in one visit saved money and the field is mowable again.
Our Florence backyard was full of surface roots. They ground them down and brought in topsoil, so the children can run out there barefoot again.
