Local Conditions
The Ground in Lima
Glacial till plain along the Routes 5&20 corridor, rich farmland loam with generally good drainage and scattered wetland pockets It also affects how a grinder tracks across the yard and whether we need plywood mats to protect the lawn.
Weather Here
Continental winter pattern removed from lake effect bands, averaging roughly 50 to 55 inches of snow a year We grind stumps year round here, ground permitting, and can usually work around frost with the right equipment.
The Properties We Work On
Most of what we quote in Lima is Village organized 1797 (originally Charleston), 19th century farmhouses along the historic Rt. 5&20 corridor. That shapes access, equipment, and how we price a job here.

The last piece, gone for good
A leftover stump attracts pests, trips up mowers, and sends up suckers for years. Our grinders chew stumps down 6 to 12 inches below grade, deep enough to replant, resod, or pave right over the spot.
We grind stumps of any size, haul away the grindings or leave them for you as free mulch, and fine grade the area when we are done.
