Common questions
How deep do you grind?
Usually 20 to 30cm below the surface, which is plenty for turf or new planting. We can go deeper if you are planning to build.
What happens to the chippings?
We can spread them as a mulch, leave them in a neat pile for you or take them away. Whichever you prefer.
