Professional stump grinding that eliminates eyesores, safety hazards, and gives you full use of your property again.
That stump isn’t just ugly—it’s taking up space you could actually use. It’s a tripping hazard every time someone walks across your yard. And it’s attracting pests you don’t want anywhere near your home.
Professional stump grinding changes all that in a matter of hours. You get your full yard back, no more safety concerns, and no more working around that dead wood every time you mow or landscape.
The difference between grinding and removal? We grind the stump 6-8 inches below ground level, which means you can plant grass, flowers, or even a new tree right over the spot. No massive hole in your yard, no root system to dig out, and no weeks of waiting for the area to settle.
We’ve been handling stump grinding throughout Lower Milford and the surrounding Lehigh Valley for years. We know the soil conditions here, the types of trees that grow on these properties, and exactly what equipment works best for Pennsylvania stumps.
You’re not getting a crew that learned your address from GPS this morning. We’ve worked on properties throughout this area, and we understand what Lower Milford homeowners expect from a professional tree service.
Our equipment handles everything from small ornamental tree stumps to massive oak and maple stumps that have been in the ground for decades. Same thorough approach, same complete cleanup, regardless of size.
First, we assess the stump size, location, and any obstacles like fences, utilities, or landscaping. This determines which equipment we bring and how we approach the job.
Next, we position our stump grinder and begin grinding the stump down to 6-8 inches below ground level. The machine uses a rotating cutting wheel with carbide teeth that chips away the wood systematically. We work in passes, grinding deeper each time until we reach the proper depth.
Throughout the process, we’re clearing wood chips and debris so you can see the progress. Once grinding is complete, we backfill the area with the wood chips or remove them entirely—your choice. The area is left level and ready for whatever you want to do with that space.
Most residential stumps take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on size and root system complexity. You’ll know exactly what to expect before we start.

Every stump grinding job includes complete grinding to 6-8 inches below ground level—deep enough that you’ll never know there was a stump there. We don’t stop at ground level like some services do.
You get complete debris cleanup. We can either remove all wood chips from your property or leave them for you to use as mulch in other areas of your landscaping. Most homeowners appreciate having quality wood chips for their garden beds.
We also handle the details that matter: protecting your existing landscaping, avoiding damage to sprinkler systems or utilities, and ensuring our equipment doesn’t damage your lawn getting to the stump location.
If you have multiple stumps, we can handle them all in one visit. Many Lower Milford properties have several stumps from storm damage or planned tree removals, and it’s more efficient to address them all at once.
