Carnesville is the seat of Franklin County, with the courthouse square at its center and homes spreading out from there. It sits close to I-85, so the in-town lots around the square give way quickly to rural properties and farmland as you move away from the highway. About 27 miles from our Hull base, Carnesville mixes the older shade trees of a county seat with the open ground of the surrounding country.
Both sides of that mix produce stumps. A mature tree comes down on an in-town lot and leaves a stump in the yard, while out on the rural properties timber cutting and storm cleanup leave stumps scattered across fields and fence lines. Wherever the tree came out, the stump is what stays in the way.
In-Town Lots Around the Square
The older homes around the Carnesville courthouse square tend to have mature shade trees, and when one of those trees comes down it leaves a sizable stump right in the yard. Grinding takes it out below the surrounding grade so the area is safe and easy to mow over, without digging a big hole in the lawn.
The Rayco track-mounted grinder is compact enough to work in tight in-town yards without tearing up the surrounding turf. It handles stumps from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide, so a single old shade tree is well within reach.
Rural Properties Near the Highway
Move away from the square and Carnesville turns rural fast, with properties close to the I-85 corridor and farmland beyond. Out here, stumps cluster where timber was cut, a fencerow was cleaned out, or a storm knocked trees down across a field. Bob clears a single stump or a whole lot full in one visit.
On open ground, leaving the grindings raked smooth as mulch is a common choice since it blends back into the soil. For spots you want to plant, fence, or build on, hauling the chips away leaves a clean slate.
Cleanup Is Part of Every Job
A ground stump turns into a pile of chips and soil that can look bigger than the stump did. Cleanup is part of the job, not an add-on. Bob rakes the grindings level or loads them up and takes them with him so you are not left with the mess.
Whether the stump is on an in-town lot or out in a field, the job is the same: get it out, clean up the chips, and leave a spot you can use. Jobs are scheduled from a quote, so call or text Bob to get on the list.
