Stump Grinding

Grind stumps down below grade so you can reclaim the space — plant, pave, or just stop mowing around it.

What's Included

Gone, not just cut lower.

Stump grinding removes the stump and surface roots down below ground level, so the spot can be planted over, paved, or just left as usable lawn again.

  • Grinding below grade, not just a surface trim
  • Wood chip debris cleared or left for mulch, your choice
  • Works for single stumps or multiple at once
  • Can be bundled with a same-visit tree removal

Why grind instead of leave it

  • Stumps attract termites and other pests over time
  • They're a tripping hazard and a mowing headache
  • Old stumps can sprout new, unwanted growth
  • Clears the space to actually use it again
FAQ

Stump grinding questions.

How soon after removal can a stump be ground?

Right away, in most cases — it's common to bundle removal and grinding into the same visit.

Can I plant right where the stump was?

Usually, yes, once grinding is complete and the area is leveled — ask us for guidance on timing if you're planting something specific.

What happens to the wood chips?

We can haul them away or leave them on site as mulch — your call, just let us know when you request your estimate.
