Expert Stump Grinding

Fast, Efficient, and Eco-Friendly Stump Grinding Services 

At Arbor Masters, we specialize in professional stump grinding services designed to enhance the beauty and functionality of your outdoor space. Our team uses state-of-the-art equipment to carefully grind the stump below ground level, eliminating the risk of tripping hazards or future tree growth.

Why You Should Schedule Stump Grinding After Removal 

When a tree is removed, you’re often left with the evidence of an unsightly stump. There are several reasons to consider adding stump grinding to your tree removal project:

  • Prevent future tree growth: If done correctly, stump grinding will help break up the main root system of the tree, causing it to die, and prevent new sprouts from emerging. 

  • Enhance property value: Removing unsightly tree stumps can improve the overall appearance of your property, increasing the value of your home. 

  • Improve safety: Tree stumps can be tripping hazards and create potential safety risks, especially for children, elderly people, and pets. 

  • Create more space: Removing stumps can free up valuable yard space for future landscaping, gardens, or other activities.

Stump Size Limitations

We can handle most stump grinding projects, but 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.

If you have a stump that doesn’t meet these requirements, please feel free to contact us for a consultation. We’ll assess your specific circumstances and determine if stump grinding is a viable option. If not, our experts will suggest other solutions to suit your needs.
