Is it weird that we don't do topsoil and seed for grinding? Y'all all be doin that **** but we prob charge more and do less...???
Probably.
Its a royal pain that is fer shure but I dunno, just feel bad leaving such a mess. I feel as though I have indecently violated someone's lawn, like perverted criminal or something.
It does add considerable cost, those cans of Tree-B-Gone aren't cheap, we used to do everything with brushes but are getting set up to spray.
Whether it be lawn repair or schlepping mats around ( I do that too of course) or even lowering every godamn piece, you gotta account fer all that ****ing lawn damage one way or another.
One of the grinding jobs had lighting and wires underground so I told the client, " Let me tell you something 'bout dat raht here and now" Turns out he didn't care so I took his word for it, only ended up yanking about 30 yards of wire into the wheel and saved pretty much all the lights, I think.
I like jobs that have a compost pile or pile of dirt laying around and I always carry grass seed, I keep some in my pocket and sprinkle it when I am walking around the jobsite to indiscreetly cover the tracks, Shh, no scuff marks here! " No, we did not just re-plant the top of that tree between the roofline and septic tank ma-am"
I have always wanted to get a small manure spreader that throws compost and grass seed.
