A stump grinder uses a spinning blade fitted with carbide tipped teeth that scrape away at the stump. Bear in mind that a stump grinder can only work to a limited depth, normally up to 10-12 inches. If you feel up to it, stump grinders can be hired by the day at most local hire shops. If you decide to use a contractor to do the work for you, expect to pay a minimum of around Â£65 plus VAT for the smallest of stumps.
Kits from soil labs provide instructions for collecting soil samples and a mailing container for returning the soil. Collecting Soil Samples: Use a clean, rust-free trowel to take samples from up to 10 areas of your lawn. Dig several holes in the lawn 6- to 8-inches deep. Take a slice of soil from one side of each hole, save 1- to 2-inches from the middle of the slice, and discard the sides, top, and bottom.
