Stump Grinding
Professional Stump Grinding
After a tree is removed, the stump is an eyesore, a tripping hazard, and a source of regrowth. Our stump grinding service removes stumps below grade — quickly, cleanly, and completely.
Our Process
How It Works
Free On-Site Estimate
We assess the stump size, root spread, and access to provide an accurate written estimate at no charge.
Equipment Setup
Our stump grinder is positioned and surrounding landscaping is protected before grinding begins.
Below-Grade Grinding
We grind the stump and major surface roots to 6–12 inches below grade, eliminating regrowth and tripping hazards.
Cleanup & Backfill
Grindings are raked out, the hole is backfilled, and the area is left ready for grass seed, sod, or replanting.

FAQ
Common Questions
How deep do you grind stumps?
We typically grind stumps 6–12 inches below grade, which is sufficient to prevent regrowth and allow replanting. Deeper grinding is available for construction or hardscape projects.
What happens to the wood chips after grinding?
Wood chips can be left on-site as mulch, or we can haul them away. We backfill the hole with chips and topsoil to restore the surface.
Will the stump grow back after grinding?
Grinding to below grade eliminates the ability of most stumps to resprout. Some species like black locust may send up shoots from remaining roots, but grinding significantly reduces this.
Can you grind stumps near fences or structures?
Yes. Our equipment can work in tight spaces. We assess access during the estimate and use the appropriate grinder size for the location.
Do I need to do anything to prepare for stump grinding?
Mark any underground utilities (call 811 before we arrive), clear the area of debris, and ensure we have access to the stump. We handle everything else.
