How We Grind Stumps
Assessment
We’ll come look at the size and status of the stump(s) and your yard to plan the best way to remove it.
Preparation
We're careful to protect the rest of your lawn and garden before we get started with stump grinding.
Grinding
We use top-notch machinery to grind the stump to at least six inches below the ground level.
Cleanup
We rake up all the grindings and fill in the hole for a clean yard. If you’d like, we can fill with topsoil and reseed.
Final Look
We make sure everything is up to our standards before we leave the job site. We’re not happy if you’re not.

Stump Grinding FAQs
Sometimes we can, but often we do tree removal and stump grinding on different days. We'll work with you to schedule both services as soon as possible.
We're very careful to protect your lawn. Our machines are designed to minimize damage, and we clean up thoroughly when we're done.
Yes! Our equipment can fit through a standard 36” gate, so we can usually reach stumps in backyards or other tight spots.
We use them to fill in the hole left by the stump. If you prefer, we can haul away the extra grindings or leave them for you to use as mulch.
It's not always required, but it's a good idea. Removing the stump makes your yard safer and looks better, as well as giving you more usable space. For the most part, it’s personal preference, unless you have neighborhood rules that require stump removal.
