Why You Should Remove Tree Stumps
Leaving a tree stump in your yard may seem harmless, but it can cause several problems over time:
- Stumps attract pests including termites, carpenter ants, beetles, and other wood-boring insects
- Decaying stumps can spread fungal diseases to healthy trees and plants nearby
- Stumps create tripping hazards, especially for children and elderly family members
- They interfere with lawn mowing and landscaping activities
- Stumps take up valuable yard space that could be used for gardens, patios, or play areas
- They detract from your property's curb appeal and can reduce property value
Our Stump Grinding Process
We use professional stump grinding equipment that grinds stumps 6 to 12 inches below ground level, ensuring complete removal. Our machines can access tight spaces and work around landscaping features without causing damage to your property. The grinding process reduces the stump to wood chips, which can be used as mulch in your garden or removed from your property entirely.
After grinding, we fill the hole with soil and can seed the area to match your existing lawn. Our team takes care to protect surrounding plants, structures, and underground utilities during the grinding process. We also offer stump removal as part of our comprehensive tree removal services, providing a complete solution for your tree care needs.
Complete Yard Restoration
Stump grinding is often just one part of a larger landscaping project. Our team can help you transform the area where the stump once stood into a beautiful part of your landscape. Whether you want to plant new trees, install a garden bed, or simply restore your lawn, we can provide guidance and services to help you achieve your vision.
For properties with multiple stumps or extensive clearing needs, we also offer land and lot clearing services to prepare your property for construction, landscaping, or other projects.

How much does stump grinding cost?
Stump grinding costs typically range from $100 to $400 per stump, depending on size, location, and accessibility. Smaller stumps (under 12 inches diameter) are less expensive, while large hardwood stumps may cost more. We offer free estimates and often provide discounted rates for multiple stumps on the same property.
How long does stump grinding take?
Most residential stump grinding jobs can be completed in 1-3 hours. Small stumps may take as little as 30 minutes, while large or difficult-to-access stumps may require several hours. The time needed depends on stump size, root system, species, and site conditions.
What happens to the wood chips after grinding?
After grinding, you have several options for the wood chips. We can leave them on-site for you to use as mulch in garden beds, haul them away for an additional fee, or use them to fill the hole where the stump was. Many homeowners use the chips as mulch, which is both economical and environmentally friendly.
Will stump grinding damage my lawn or landscaping?
Our professional stump grinding equipment is designed to minimize damage to surrounding areas. We use rubber tracks or ground protection mats when necessary and take care to avoid existing landscaping. While there will be some disturbance in the immediate area around the stump, we clean up thoroughly and can fill the area with topsoil and seed if requested.
