Questions Before Grinding?

Here's what people usually want to know.

  • Will it damage my yard?

    We keep the grinding to the stump and clean up carefully after.

  • Is grinding enough?

    For re-sodding or a lawn, usually yes. For building on the spot, full removal is better.

  • How soon can you quote it?

    The same day you call. It's free.

  • What about the chips?

    Your choice: raked into the hole or hauled away.

Get Rid of That Stump

An old stump is a trip hazard, a lawnmower hazard and an eyesore. Stump grinding is the quickest way to get rid of it. A grinder chews the stump down below the grass line, and what’s left is a pile of wood chips and a patch of ground you can re-sod, seed or plant around.

How Stump Grinding Works

  1. We check the spot. We look at the stump size, what’s around it, and how to get the grinder in.
  2. We grind it down. The grinder works back and forth across the stump, turning the wood into chips until it’s below the grass.
  3. We clean up. We rake the chips back into the hole or haul them away, whichever you prefer, and tidy the area.

The roots are left in the ground to break down naturally. If you need the roots out too, for building or planting in the same spot, look at full stump removal.

What Affects the Price

Factor Why it matters
Stump width Wider stumps take longer to grind.
Number of stumps Several stumps on one visit are usually better value. See grinding several stumps.
Access Backyards behind narrow gates or up steps take more work.
Surface roots Big roots running along the surface can be ground down too.
The chips Leave them to fill the hole, or have them hauled away.

After Grinding

The chips settle over a few weeks. Many people top the spot up with soil and seed or sod. If you’d rather plant a new tree, it’s best to move it a little to one side of the old stump.
