Our Stump Grinding Process

Simple Process, Complete Results

We start by assessing your stump and the surrounding area to determine the best approach and identify any underground utilities or obstacles. Then we position our professional stump grinder and systematically grind the stump down to 6-8 inches below ground level.

The grinding process pulverizes the entire stump and major root system into small wood chips. We work methodically to ensure complete removal so you don’t get surprise sprouting later.

Once grinding is complete, we rake up all debris and wood chips, leaving you with clean, level ground. You can choose to keep some of the wood chips for mulch, or we’ll haul everything away. The area is ready for immediate use – seed it, plant it, or build on it.

We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level as our standard practice. This depth ensures the stump won’t interfere with new landscaping, construction, or lawn maintenance. Going below ground level also prevents regrowth and eliminates the visible stump completely. If you need deeper grinding for specific construction requirements, we can accommodate that with advance notice. The depth we achieve means you can plant new trees, install landscaping, or seed grass immediately over the area without any issues.
We clean up all debris and wood chips as part of our standard service. You have the option to keep some or all of the wood chips for use as mulch in your landscaping – they make excellent natural mulch for flower beds and around trees. If you don’t want the chips, we haul them away completely. We rake the area clean and leave you with level ground ready for immediate use. The cleanup is thorough, so you won’t find wood chips scattered around your property weeks later.

Stump grinding is typically the better choice for most situations because it’s faster, less expensive, and less disruptive to your property. Complete stump removal requires excavating the entire root system, which damages surrounding landscaping and leaves a large hole to fill. Grinding eliminates the visible stump and grinds the root system below ground level, where it naturally decomposes over time. The process is cleaner, quicker, and leaves your property ready for immediate use without major restoration work.
