Our Stump Grinding Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess the stump and surrounding area to determine the best approach and identify any potential obstacles like utilities or irrigation lines. We mark the work area and set up protective barriers if needed to safeguard your landscaping.

Our professional-grade stump grinder removes the entire stump and major root system, grinding everything down 6-8 inches below ground level. This ensures grass can grow naturally over the area and prevents regrowth. We work systematically to minimize noise and disruption to your property and neighbors.

After grinding is complete, we remove all wood chips and debris unless you’d prefer to keep them for mulch. We backfill the area with quality topsoil and can provide grass seed if requested. The work area is left clean and ready for whatever you have planned next.

Stump grinding costs vary based on stump size, location, and accessibility, but most residential jobs in Lowhill range from $100 to $400 per stump. Larger stumps or those in difficult locations may cost more. We provide free, written estimates that include all costs upfront – grinding, cleanup, backfill, and debris removal. No hidden fees or surprise charges. Multiple stumps on the same property often qualify for volume discounts.
Professional stump grinding should not damage surrounding landscaping when done correctly. We use track-mounted equipment that distributes weight evenly and can navigate tight spaces without tearing up grass. We also place protective barriers around flower beds, shrubs, and other landscaping features. Our operators are trained to work precisely around existing plants and hardscaping. Any minor soil disturbance is addressed with topsoil and grass seed as part of our standard cleanup process.
We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level as standard practice. This depth ensures grass can grow naturally over the area and prevents most species from resprouting. For stumps near future construction or landscaping projects, we can grind deeper upon request. Surface grinding that leaves the stump flush with the ground isn’t sufficient – it creates ongoing maintenance problems and prevents proper grass growth. Deep grinding eliminates these issues permanently.
Yes, we regularly handle stumps in tight spaces near homes, fences, and other structures. Our equipment includes smaller, maneuverable grinders designed for confined areas where larger machines won’t fit. We take extra precautions near buildings and property lines, including hand-digging around sensitive areas when necessary. Before starting any job, we assess access routes and potential obstacles to ensure we can complete the work safely without property damage.
Most residential stumps take 30 minutes to 2 hours to grind completely, depending on size and root system complexity. Small stumps under 12 inches can often be finished in 30-45 minutes, while large stumps over 24 inches may require 2-3 hours. Multiple stumps on the same property are more efficient since setup time is shared. We’ll provide a time estimate with your quote so you can plan accordingly. Weather and soil conditions can affect timing slightly.
Minimal preparation is needed on your part. Clear any decorative items, hoses, or equipment from around the stump area. If you have underground utilities, sprinkler lines, or invisible dog fencing near the stump, let us know so we can work around them safely. We handle all other preparation including equipment setup and protective measures for your landscaping. Having vehicle access to within 50 feet of the stump is helpful but not always required – we can work with challenging access situations.
