How deep do you grind?
Typically below finished ground level to suit replanting, turf or hardstanding. We’ll agree the depth during the survey.
Can you work near underground services?
Yes. We undertake cable avoidance checks, adjust methods and agree safe stand-off distances before starting.
What happens to the arisings and roots?
Arisings can be removed, left for mulch or spread on site. Major lateral roots within the grinding zone are reduced as needed.
Will the area be level and ready to reuse?
Yes. We backfill and compact, leaving a tidy, level surface ready for your next phase.
