Our Stump Grinding Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess the stump size, location, and any underground utilities or obstacles. This determines the right equipment and approach for your specific situation.

Next, we use professional stump grinding equipment to grind the stump and major roots down to 6-12 inches below ground level. This ensures nothing will interfere with future landscaping or construction.

Finally, we clean up all the wood chips and debris. You can keep the chips for mulch if you want them, or we’ll haul everything away. Either way, you’re left with clean soil ready for whatever comes next.

Stump grinding costs depend on the size and location of the stump, but most residential jobs in New Smithville range from $100 to $400 per stump. Larger stumps or those in difficult locations cost more, while smaller stumps cost less. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what to expect before we start.

We grind stumps 6 to 12 inches below ground level, which is deep enough to prevent regrowth and allow for normal landscaping or construction. The exact depth depends on your plans for the area and the type of tree. If you’re planning to plant something new in that spot, we can go deeper. If you just want the hazard eliminated, standard depth works perfectly.
Our equipment is designed to minimize lawn damage, but some impact is unavoidable when removing large stumps. We use the smallest effective machine for each job and take precautions to protect surrounding plants and grass. Any minor lawn damage typically recovers quickly, especially compared to the improvement you’ll see from removing an unsightly stump. We’ll discuss potential impacts during your free estimate.

You have two options with the wood chips. We can haul them away completely, leaving you with clean soil ready for immediate use.

Most customers choose to keep some chips for mulch and have us remove the excess. We’ll discuss what works best for your situation.
Most single stump removals take 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on size and location. Multiple stumps obviously take longer, but we can usually complete several in a single visit.
