Hi mate, glad to see you are making a good go at your own business and it’s working out for you. I’m looking to do something very similar myself and didn’t know if you would be able to make a video explaining the business insurance and legal things you need to cover to set up and run a business. Keep up the good work.
You definitely went the right way digging them out. The stump grinder would have just dealt with the little bits poking up but Sumac are an absolute ball-ache and will keep growing like mad and make the level lawn lumpy in no time.
Your right, the extra hire fee would of come straight off profit so what's the point. My passion remains 😂 . Thanks for the comment.
Is there roots sticking out the ground? Surley your not going to leave it like that?
There were a few. However, once it's had it first cut it, it will pick up any small lose but on the floor and look like a lovely lawn. Cheers
😀👍
Top man
Fantastisch Good work Harley you the best te famely te te helpen te moostiun best friend Top weekend 🚚🚜🌿🌾😎🌞🍹🍁🌳🧢😅🎧🚧🏡🎽
Thanks 👍
I like how Let’s Dig 18 digs Stumps up he got a Thumb so can pull roots out he lift & drops Stumps so soil falls off & also uses Bucket teeth pull soil off Stump
Most hire machines don't have thumbs, you can achieve the same things using a toothed bucket, just requires a bit of experience.
That's for the comment husky. Finding a hire machine with thumb is hard like pualf said. A decent operator will figure it out with a bucket. Thank you both for your input to the channel.
Defo use stump grinder. Near to no waste and doesn’t compress the ground you want to seed/turf from the weight of the machine and a bit cheaper so get more profit margin
Grest suggestion maybe, I still think I would of needed a digger so it would of just drove hire fees up on this occasion however it's a grest suggestion for other jobs. Thanks for the comment
stump grinders are no use ok for big stumps
I used one the other day after the filming of this on a small stump. It was a mint little machine. Maybe I'll change my opinion with more experience. Thanks for the comment.
What’s the plan for when all those bits of sumac root start growing in the new lawn?
After the first cut these will be cut right down leavening a fresh lawn on top the lawn will swallow them and as it get foot traffic it will drive it into the ground, this is the second time ive done this process so i know it works in the long run. I also was on a tight budget so I drive labor cost up to much. Thanks for the comment.
@@HDGardenCareok, hopefully the plan works 👍
Lay turf... sow seeds...gnome sayin
Thanks for the comment
Stick with the digger I would have got a small skip on site to save having to go and get rid of the waste
When I worked out the diesel and time taken to tip off, it would have been cheaper to do it this way. Although if the garden was bigger, I would have gotten a skip. I only had 1 and a half trailer loads off of it, wouldn't if even filled a 4 yder. It's a great suggestion however this is why I opted for this.
Your right the digger is definitely the best option. Most comments agreed.
Thanks for taking the time to watch this video.
love the content man keep it up u have inspired me to start my own business too so love to see the content keep coming out
I love to hear this, I wish you the best with your business. You will smash it mate. Thanks for the comment.
A stump grinder would be good. However, if you still needed to fix the levels afterwards, you would still have had to rent a digger, so you would have had increased hire costs. There would also still have been some waste to take away! Mixing soft ground up stumps into the ground isn't ideal when turfing or seeding because when they rot, you will end up with soft, low spots in the garden. I would have done exactly what you did and just rented a digger for the day! PS. you should have ear defenders on when you are on the digger! Don't want to go deaf!
Fantastic bit of information. I find these comments really helpful. You make some grest points. Cheers
any more videos pal? are you still mowing?
There will be one this year and more to come next year. Ive been doing lot of tree work and im not filming it until lm ticketed!!!!!
Harley I Excavator Fan but because of Epilepsy I only can use on private Ground so when had to dig up 32ft x 10ft wide Bamboo I got what you got as had to do other stuff back in 2015 should done in 2016 as that would been a good 50 for me I did it year Early at Sisters place I not used Mini Excavator in 25yrs did not take long to figure out how use it was good Birthday weekend laugh was get 750mm Kubota through 800mm side Garage door managed it without hitting door next thing trying dig Bamboo stumps write against Fence with out breaking it they had trouble getting me off Kubota
Im sure you will get another chance to climb in one soon enough. There easy enough to grasp but I would say that I learnt to operate before I could drive so i can just hop in and muscle memory takes over !

Fantastisch Good work harley you te best te famey te House te helpen te moostuin the best fried Good weekend 🚛🪤🚜🌳🌿🌾🌤😎☕️🧢🎧🧤👌
Thanks 👍
I've done a lot of reclamation work, similar to above. With the sprawling root structure of those shrubs, I would have used a mini digger like you did.
A stump grinder is a great piece of kit, but it's more suited to mature trees with a well-defined base.
Thanks its always nice to know I was taking the right approtch.
