Stump Grinding vs. Stump Removal
Some companies remove a stump by pulling the whole stump and root ball out of the ground. We remove stumps by grinding: we grind the stump out below grade, then chase the roots that run out from it and grind those below grade too. Roots deeper than the grinding stay in the ground and break down over time.
Surface Roots
Surface roots are the ones you can see running across the yard from the stump, or feel just under the grass. We get rid of those too, so you are not left mowing around them.
Getting the Grinder Into the Yard
Our stump grinder is 36 inches wide. If the stump is behind a fence, the gate has to be at least 36 inches wide for the grinder to fit through. Tell us how wide your gate is when you call.
Utilities Checked First
We call it in and check for buried lines before we grind. We take your stumps out, not your utility lines.
Cleanup Options
You choose the cleanup. We can take everything with us, or leave the chips for you. If you want the spot ready for grass, we backfill the hole and put down seed.
What You Can Do With the Spot Afterward
With the stump ground out below grade, you can mow right over the spot or seed it for grass. If you plan to build, pour concrete or plant a new tree there, tell us when you call.
