@TheJonesFarm 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! A day late for me lol! I just bid a shrub removal and small tree removal project. It was 3 shrubs and a 10 year old Japanese maple. as well as 2.5 yards of fresh red fir bark dust. $750 for the project including disposal. Bid got declined for being to expensive.. sometimes people don’t understand what it takes to get a project done. On to the next! Don’t let clients control your pricing. I’ve learned that the hard way more than once hah!

@jilleven67 2 года назад

Whenever you take out a tree or bush close to a water line and house, the roots are going to be difficult. I bid higher on projects like that, also I have the homeowner sign off of no fault to in-service line damage. I have used trucks to old school jacks to lift the root system. Good job..

I've seen you do a lot other things and most of the time you really impress me with the way you work and all that but I gotta say all you needed there was a shovel and an axe, it kinda seemed like you complicated things more that you actually needed to, anyway I'll keep watching your vids man thanks.

@juangomez1524 2 года назад

Keith, when you cut the roots with dirt on it it eats the blades 3x faster Make sure u can dig some dirt off the roots and then go for the roots itself, you will save blades in the long run

@Rankin-Hardscape 2 года назад

Big fan of the positivity no matter what! Keep on doing the funny garden goof skits

@woodguyty3228 2 года назад

Another thing you can use instead of sawzall is corona bypass loppers- dive them down into the dirt until you feel larger 1” roots, snip 2 or 3 of those, pull with the truck and your good boys 🤙

@johnfurey6569 2 года назад

I don’t waste my time on shrubs by cutting them I just stump grind them and they fall apart faster and easier in and out hole job that size 1 hour $600

@evaneldridge1705 Год назад

Keith, have you ever had any issues hitting buried wires/lines when using the sawzall to cut around the shrub? Great idea!

@livingyourbestlife711 2 года назад

great vlog! thanks for sharing! $175/hr isn't bad yet I know expenses decrease the gross profit. You won't make that as an employee for anyone else! unless you are an MD or JD, I suppose! Also, are those blades meant to cut through earth material or just direct wood contact? that might be a reason for rapid blade dulling, ya think? I do this type of work for my rental properties but it wouldn't be a bad side gig! again, great share!

@csmlawnandlandscape7619 2 года назад

That looked painful! But I can say, been there done that. I sometimes find internet/tv cable and fiber optic cables in the landscape beds when I'm doing shrub removal, so I'm really careful with the Sawzall.

@michaelpoindexter3599 2 года назад

Do you still use a chipper for the debris?

@ffbeaserbeaser5387 2 года назад

Do you use the pruning blades, wood blades, or wood with nails type blades for your sawzall?

@user-uu2lr3sf2b 2 месяца назад

Keith, love your humor and quirky attitude. I would have chainsawed flush to start and used a larger stump grinder, still gonna be roots in the bed during replant. IMHO.

@loganhollingsworth5477 2 года назад

@billhull6842 2 года назад

Keith, Bosch also makes a good tree pruning blade that I use all the time from Menards. I get 5 blades for like $20. Also never rule out the use of C-4 or thermite. That will work. Also you could use Napalm but Napalm might not be the best option for this job. And napalm is not hare to make. lol Just google the receipt. Have a nice day. I also just got the bid to tear down a garage!!! Big payday coming. Just waiting for the permit.

Phased plasma rifle in the 40 Watt range is good for especially stubborn roots.

@adamstruthjourney1226 2 года назад

Harbor freight sells a 2000 lb portable marine winch. With enough pulleys you can double or triple that or even quadruple it. Its under $100 and worth every penny. You can hook it to your hitch or another tree trunk or anything solid even in back yards. I use the dump trailers battery. Works great when you have limited pulling space for the truck.

@tylerfred7514 2 года назад

I’m gonna have to look into that

@kelkev85 2 года назад

I use a winch but its mechanical, Wyeth scott more power puller. Its 6000lb single line or 12000lb double. That plus a high lift jack I have yet to fail.

@grassgonewildlandscaping5445 2 года назад

@Chris-bn5cv 2 года назад

Nothing ever goes to plan. I was getting anxiety worrying about the rope snapping and blowing out one of those windows.

@kelkev85 2 года назад

Thats true 1200lb is not exactly worthy of being hooked up to a truck but he also didnt have anything heavy attached to it like a D shackle. I use synthetic winch line as it doesnt store energy and snap back if it brakes.

@Sargeantyardpros 2 года назад

You can always lay a blanket or heavy jacket over a rope, cable etc. If your worried about it snapping. It absorbs the energy and will hopefully keep it from doing to much damage.

Completely unrelated topic but I feel like you would understand. do you ever feel like you're work uniform is your Superman suit? I know plenty of other guys in my industry that just wear their regular clothes to work but ever since I started always felt like when I put on my blue polo shirt tucked in with my dickie pants that it's just full systems go and it really puts me in a work mindset. I know you're well aware of the power of branding I was just wondering if you ever have thought about your uniform like that?

Shovel and a folding hand saw gets it out no problem

@sandycharlton8669 2 года назад

Another cool trick is to get a shovel dig down 8" around the small tree just enough to get a top handle chainsaw in the hole then get a garden hose and wash off all dirt then cut with top handle chainsaw. It works better with small trees than shrub,s. I like you sawzall trick that,s cool.

@JacksonMiller15 2 года назад

@Jasha333 2 года назад

Gotta be a bit more aggressive with the truck. I usually back up and then hit the gas quick and go forward, if it doesn't pop out, do it again and again until it comes out..usually does the trick..quick yanks instead of steady tension seems to work well for me at least. I do have a f250 diesel though so its a bit heavier of a truck than urs

Hahaha. Yew shrubs are the harderst to dig out. Been there! They are actually trees that can be maintained as small shrubs. I have seen them grow 30 ft in the north east.

@ThePatricksmurf 2 года назад

Just dig and look were the roots are. A shovel don't bite. Then use an axe and then pull it out. You take a risk with your car. Thats a cute grinder, use a little better one, kind of 13 hp is good enough for this kind of work. Or use a mini crane for this kind of work. (or somebody with a mini crane... ) A few years ago I kept al that kind of jobs till one day when i rent a good stump grinder.

@MRPlow-gj4qg 2 года назад

A dingo or a bobcat MT with the proper chain would of made the job go a lot faster maybe an hour. Plus that way the root ball would be gone and you can plant something in its place. Right now you can’t even get a shovel in the ground there.
