FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I used to drive by a stump grinding sign on my way to work every morning and it peaked my interest. After looking into the trade and seeing how much of a difference it makes for a property, I decided to start Black Diamond and get behind the machine myself.
- Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
I recently cleared a large, stubborn oak stump for my neighbor. Hardwood like oak is dense and requires precision, but I ground it deep enough to allow for immediate backfilling and grass seeding. Reclaiming that backyard space made a huge difference in their curb appeal. The entire job took about one hour.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Always make sure the pro you hire is fully insured to protect your property. I also highly recommend ensuring they call 811 to have underground utility lines marked before any work begins. Hiring a legit, professional operator saves you from costly headaches down the road.
