Our Stump Grinding Process
To ensure a smooth and efficient stump grinding experience for all our customers, we follow a process that prioritizes safety, effectiveness, and minimal disruption to your property.
Thorough Evaluation
Our Certified Arborists assess the stump’s size, location, and condition to give you a detailed quote.
Safe Preparation
We clear the surrounding area to ensure a secure work environment and for optimal safety.
Precise Grinding
Using top-of-the-line equipment, we grind the stump to a safe depth that is well below the soil level.
Clean Up
After grinding, we will backfill the hole with soil and mulch, leaving a tidy mound of debris. We can also haul the debris offsite, if necessary.
Stump Size Limitations
While we can handle most stump grinding projects, there are some size limitations to consider. Stumps must be at least 12 inches in diameter for effective grinding, and we require gate access to be at least 36 inches wide (most standard backyard gates meet this requirement).
Even if your stump doesn't meet these criteria, please contact us for a consultation. We'll assess your situation and recommend alternative solutions.
Stump Grinding Cleanup
As with any one of our services, we do our best to minimize disruption and restore your yard to its original appearance. While stump grinding can be a messy job, we clean up the area thoroughly. By raking up debris and backfilling the hole with soil and mulch, we aim to make it appear as if the stump was never there.
