Stump Grinding

Stump grinding is part of our normal tree removal process. Ideally, the tree itself will be cut within inches of the ground level, meaning that there is less stump that actually needs to be removed. Stump grinding mulches the existing tree roots several inches below the surface, destroying most of it and what is left hides under the ground as it decays over time.

Leave Stump Removal to the Pro’s

Stump grinding is one of those services that you always want to leave in the hands of the pro’s, just due to the risk involved and equipment needed. It would take you hours and hours to chop up a stump with an axe, and if you used a chainsaw it would probably eat through an entire blade by the time you were able to finish. Even if you did just so happen to have a quality stump grinder on hand, it’s a dangerous piece of equipment and is better left in the hands of the professionals. 

A stump grinder in the right hands can truly burn through some stumps in little time – and for less money than you may expect. Nobody wants to have stumps in their yard, they’re just waiting for you to trip or drive over them and hurt yourself or damage your car. We do our work without disturbing the rest of your yard and clean up any mess we make – so it’s as if the stump was never there. We ensure complete removal, no small stumps will be left waiting underground to ruin your day. 

Why Even Bother with Stump Removal?

You may be wondering, if your stump is off to the side of your yard or really out of the way – why even worry about the stump still being there? Well, over the years we’ve found a few good reasons. They look bad, get in the way of lawn mowing and other yardwork, attract unwanted pests, and can be quite the hazard.

Have you ever tripped over an old stump you could hardly see? Not fun. Also, a rotting stump quickly becomes an inviting home for damaging pests like termites or carpenter ants/bees. These critters can spread to other living things in your yard far faster than you may think, eventually possibly even invading your home. Removing the stump is by far the best way to avoid any of these issues before they have a chance to begin.
