Stump Grinding Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess your stump and mark any underground utilities or sprinkler lines. Safety comes before speed, every time.

Our professional-grade grinder reduces your stump to wood chips, going several inches below ground level. This prevents regrowth and gives you a clean slate for whatever you want to do with that space.

All debris gets cleaned up and hauled away unless you want to keep the wood chips for mulch. We rake the area smooth and leave you with usable ground instead of an obstacle.

How deep does stump grinding go below ground level?

Stump grinding typically goes 6-8 inches below ground level, sometimes deeper depending on your future plans for the area. This depth prevents regrowth and gives you enough clean soil to plant grass or other landscaping. If you’re planning to build a structure or plant a large tree in that spot, the grinding can go deeper to ensure there’s no interference with your project. The goal is to remove enough of the root system that you won’t have sprouting issues or obstacles when you’re ready to use that space.

What happens to all the wood chips after grinding?

We haul the wood chips away as part of our standard service, leaving you with a clean area ready for your next project. However, many homeowners choose to keep some or all of the chips for mulch around their other landscaping. The chips make excellent natural mulch for flower beds and around trees. If you want to keep them, just let us know beforehand and we’ll pile them in a convenient location on your property instead of loading them for removal.

How long does it take to grind a typical stump?

Most residential stumps take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on size, species, and root system complexity. A standard 12-inch diameter stump usually takes about an hour including setup and cleanup. Larger stumps or those with extensive root systems take longer, while smaller stumps can be completed in 30 minutes or less. We provide a time estimate when we assess your specific stump, so you’ll know what to expect before work begins.

Can you grind stumps close to buildings or fences?

Yes, our professional stump grinding equipment can work in tight spaces near buildings, fences, and other structures. We take extra precautions in these situations, using smaller equipment when necessary and protective barriers to prevent any debris from reaching nearby structures. Underground utilities get marked beforehand, and we work carefully around sprinkler systems, buried cables, or other obstacles. The key is having experienced operators who know how to maneuver equipment safely in confined spaces.

Will grinding damage my lawn or landscaping nearby?

Professional stump grinding causes minimal damage to surrounding areas when done correctly. We use protective mats or plywood to distribute equipment weight and prevent ruts in your lawn. Any minor disturbance to grass or soil around the work area gets addressed during cleanup. We take care to avoid damaging nearby plants, sprinkler heads, or decorative elements. Most homeowners are surprised at how little impact there is on the surrounding landscape when the job is done by experienced professionals with proper equipment.

What's the cost difference between DIY rental and professional service?

Stump grinder rental typically costs $200-400 per day, but that’s just the equipment cost. You’ll also need a truck capable of hauling the grinder, time to learn how to operate it safely, and disposal arrangements for all the debris. Our professional service includes equipment, experienced operators, cleanup, and debris removal for often just slightly more than rental costs. When you factor in your time, the learning curve, potential property damage from inexperience, and disposal costs, professional service usually provides better value and guaranteed results.
