Arbor Masters Oklahoma City Stump Grinding Services
After you have a tree removed, there will be a stump left over. Most consider it an eyesore and a potential hazard, which is why homeowners choose to call Arbor Masters for our stump grinding service. We’ll grind the stump below the soil line, making it disappear so you can reclaim the space for landscaping.
Why Choose Stump Grinding After You Remove a Tree
Leaving a stump behind isn’t ideal, and there are several reasons to consider removing it. Here are some of the most common benefits of stump grinding:
Enhance Property Value
A leftover stump won’t add anything to your property’s appeal. Replacing it with attractive landscaping can significantly boost your property value.
Improve Aesthetics
Stumps can disrupt the look of your yard. Removing them creates a cleaner, more polished appearance, improving curb appeal.
Eliminate a Tripping Hazard
Stumps can be a tripping hazard for visitors, especially if their roots end up near the surface of the soil.

Stump Grinding FAQs
Yes, we offer stump grinding as a standalone service.
We will typically try to schedule your stump grinding for later in the day after your tree has been removed, but this isn’t always possible. Rest assured, though, that we will grind your stump as soon as our dedicated stump grinding team has space in their schedule!
Yes! We can leave the grindings in a neat mound for you to use at your discretion. Many of our clients use what’s leftover as organic mulch for their trees or flowerbeds.
We’d love to talk with you and guide you through the process, but we can still perform stump grinding when you’re not home. Just ensure we can get easy access to the stump, and we’ll do the rest.
Stump grinding is not the only way to rid yourself of an eyesore, as stump removal is also an option some tree care companies offer. We prefer stump grinding to removal for several reasons:
- Less invasive: Excavating a stump will tear up your yard, necessitating a long clean-up and a longer time until your yard goes back to looking normal.
- Faster: Stump grinding is a relatively quick process, whereas removal requires more time and energy.
- Cost-effective: Because stump grinding requires a smaller team and less work, it is more cost-effective for our customers.
