Stump Removal
How long are you going to keep mowing around that stump on your lawn? :)
We can make that stump disappear and grind it down to 6" below grade.
Our rates starts at $5/inch and we offer discounts for multiple stumps and seniors.
When completed there is usually a good size pile of dirt and chips where the stump was formerly. We can move that debris to another location on your property, or haul it away ... we can even bring in fresh top soil and compact with new grass seed for you. Just add water! Give us a call and see what we can do for you.
Brush & Vegetation Clearing
Mary and I purchased a derelict piece of land back in 2010. It was completely neglected for 20 years and severely overgrown and full of garbage. I cleared every inch of the 4 acre homestead, and picked up a few tricks along the way.
Whether you are clearing out bush, processing trees, removing unwanted shrubs or even reclaiming overgrown areas, we have the equipment, and skills to get rid of it and make it look great! We routinely use our pallet forks or backhoe to systematically feed a fire consuming large piles of brush right on site. We also use a bucket rake on the front of the bucket to remove vegetation and rake out the area. Finally we use a wide variety of mowers to cut everything from grass to saplings.
If you want it gone and cleaned up ... we can make it happen, and quick.
Bucket Rake & Pallet Forks
These are two of the most versatile additions to any front end loader bucket. The rake allows us to grab hold of unwanted brush and tear it out. Then the unique tooth set up helps us move the brush into rows and then piles for burning or removal. Finally the teeth on the bottom of the rake allow us to grade out and rake out the terrain giving it a clean "finished" look.
Besides the obvious use of pallet forks for moving pallets loaded with materials, we often use these for moving brush and branches. When space permits, the pallet forks allow us to feed a fire on site with control not letting the fire get too big while keeping things hot enough to consume even freshly cut (green) material. Game changer when cleaning up felled or fallen trees and shrubs.
Trenching & Digging
Our backhoe is used for any number of digging and dirty jobs. Trenching and backfilling is another common call we get. Need to do some dig'n ... we do that.
"I am absolutely thrilled to write a glowing review for Mark and his outstanding work in digging a trench for drainage on my country property. From start to finish, Mark displayed the utmost professionalism and expertise that far exceeded my expectations. He carefully assessed the landscape, considering all the necessary factors such as slope, soil composition, and runoff patterns. Not only was Mark highly skilled, but he also demonstrated exceptional work ethic throughout the project. He arrived punctually every day, fully prepared and equipped with all the necessary tools and materials. He worked diligently and efficiently, without sacrificing the quality of his work. I was particularly impressed with how he meticulously smoothed and levelled the trench, ensuring that it blended seamlessly with the landscape. Thanks Mark! Looking forward to working with you again."

Material Handling
(soil, mulch & stone, etc.)
My wife jokes that 'man's work' is basically moving stuff from one pile to another. She does have a point. However, sometimes we even spread it out and make it look nice. :) Dirt, stone, mulch, gravel, manure ... we deliver it and put it right where you need it.
Driveway Grading
At home we have a long gravel driveway and we need to dress it at least once a year. I usually like to do this before our annual family picnic so it looks sharp and clean. I use a box blade and leveling grader for this job and can usually make it look new again. Whether you want to install a brand new driveway, add some fresh gravel to an existing driveway or agitate and level the old stone to fill the potholes and make it new again ... we can help.
We also use our box blade for agitating and leveling dirt with sod. See photos below where we started with grass and a huge pile of fill in the center of the area also covered in tall grass. Took about 1.5 hrs to spread the pile of fill and break up the ground enough to level. Client is just going to add grass seed to extend his lawn.
"Thank you Mark for the awesome grading work in the back yard today ... it turned out better than I could have imagined."

Acreage Finish Mowing
If you need to reclaim an overgrown lawn or just need a hand while your mower is in the shop. We have a diesel zero turn with a 60" deck that can make short work of large lawns. In addition we have all the push mowers, trimmers and blowers to handle any size finish mowing job. If you need a hand ... give us a call.
Dump Trailer Service
(dump runs)
Our dump trailer is 6'X12' and can carry around 5 tons. We routinely do dump runs and deliver any type of aggregate, mulch, soil, building materials etc. right to your job site. Our tractor is able to scoop material directly from the dump box which helps with getting materials to challenging areas where the truck and trailer can't go (like your backyard). This also avoids unloading materials in a big pile on your lawn, driveway etc.
