Price to Stump Grind a Lime Tree

[Mark Butland]

Fairly new to this - I've been sent an enquiry for a single tree to stump grind, its approx. 5ft across by 1ft high Lime Tree but with some bricks in it ! Good Access etc. they want to go 1ft under ground level. I've got a Track remote Grinder. Thanks in Advance

It’ll be more about whether you remove the grindings or not.

 

Lime fluffs up  and creates a big pile.

 

Bricks aren’t that much of an issue.

Don't want to sound harsh, but how on earth do you find yourself with a remote controlled tracked grind, which is a fantastic tool to have!! and yet not know what to charge?

[flatyre]

have to agree with skyhuck, if its your own grinder then you should know what to charge as that's not an amateur piece of kit, if you mean you have access to such a machine then charge for a day and hope you get it done before dark

Did you manage to get this job done and what did you decide to charge in the end?

[Stefan Palokangas]

Sounds a 500 pound grind and a 300 extra to remove depends on access. Also depends what kind of machine you use. You might be like be, just buy the thing and learn later lol [emoji23]

Yep done this job for £250, the bricks in the stump were not that bad so no damage to teeth, done the job in a couple of hours 

[Mark Butland]

Stefan, would you really expect to get £800 ?  I live in Reading so rates are above the norm. Where do you live ?

[Sequoia]

Grindings off site or left in situ?  And to echo the above, how do you have this grinder and not know what to charge?  I'd be looking for £600 if I could complete the task on my own within the day.
