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.

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.

During the winter months we had to do some rock hammering for a water line job here in Spokane. We had to go 60 feet 4 1/2 feet deep through some of the hardest rock in the world. This job called for serious iron- enter a Case 220 excavator with hammer.   Got to like those heated cabs! We got the job finished and had another happy customer.

A full landscape was done about 6 months prior to the sewer hook up, a little bit of “cart before the horse”- a lot of plywood, topsoil, and some grass seed finished it out nice after the sewer hookup was completed!

This was a great job- a win win for myself and the customer. The only bad part of sewer was under the driveway, which required only cutting 2′ ofF the length of the drive, leaving plenty of concrete for driveway and parking. With the savings the customer chose to tear out old shrubbery, lay down weed cloth and round rock. Its hard to believe its the same job.
