“When we first got the grader it was really appealing because we could hook it onto a skid loader and get in tight spots and more confined areas that we wouldn’t get into with a dozer or a bigger machine. The grader is pretty unique for us because we do a variety of different projects ranging from roads to parking lots. The grader is accurate within a quarter inch and it really takes out a lot of the fine work that you would do with a laborer.”

– Trevor Drish | Drish Construction

“We’ve been running the Burchland Trimmer since the summer of 2018. We run the trimmer on our curb and gutter jobs to get the grade correct before we pour curbs. It makes our slip form curb process much easier. It’s an awesome monster!”
