One of the most common concerns we hear from clients in historic towns like Loughrea or terraced homes in Galway City is, “Will the machine fit through my gate?” It’s a valid worry. Many industrial stump grinders are bulky, trailer-sized beasts that require wide access. However, at JB Property Maintenance, we specialize in difficult access. Our stump grinding service in Galway is designed to reach the spots that other companies simply can’t.
The Challenge of Urban Gardens
Galway is full of beautiful homes with side entrances, narrow alleyways, or walled gardens. A standard side gate is often only about 30 to 36 inches wide. If a tree surgeon relies solely on tow-behind grinders, they cannot service these properties without removing fences or walls—an expensive and messy added cost.
Our Specialized Equipment
We have invested in state-of-the-art, compact stump grinding machinery specifically for this purpose.
- Slim Profile: Our machines are designed to fit through standard pedestrian gates. If you can walk a wheelbarrow through it, we can likely get our grinder in.
- Low Impact: Heavy machinery can churn up a wet lawn, leaving tire tracks that take months to recover. Our compact grinders are lighter and use weight-distribution tracks or tires to minimize impact on your grass.
- High Power: Don’t let the size fool you. These machines pack a punch, capable of chewing through dense hardwood stumps just as effectively as their larger cousins.
Case Study: The Terraced Garden
Imagine a home in Newcastle with a large Sycamore stump in the back garden. The only access is a narrow side path and through a garage. A large removal truck is useless here. JB Property Maintenance can maneuver our equipment through these confined spaces safely. We use protective screens to shield your patio doors and windows from flying wood chips, ensuring that even in a small, enclosed courtyard, the job is done safely.
Efficiency and Speed
Having the right tool for the job means we don’t waste time. We don’t need to dismantle your fence panels or ask you to take down your washing line poles. We roll in, do the job, and roll out. This efficiency is why we are the preferred stump grinding service in Galway for property management companies and private homeowners alike.
Serving the Entire Region
While we are experts in city access, this versatility helps in rural areas too. Whether it’s a stump located on a steep bank in Connemara or squeezed between outbuildings on a farm in Mayo, our agile machinery allows us to tackle jobs that are technically difficult for others.
Access should never be a barrier to a tidy garden. If you have been told your stump is “unreachable,” get a second opinion from us. With our narrow-access technology and skilled operators, JB Property Maintenance provides a truly accessible stump grinding service in Galway.
