What You Get When It's Done Right

That stump isn’t just an eyesore. It’s a safety hazard, a pest magnet, and a constant reminder of unfinished business on your property.

When we grind it out completely, you get your yard back. No more mowing around it. No more explaining to visitors why there’s a tree stump in the middle of your landscape. No more worrying about kids or guests tripping over it.

The space becomes usable again. You can plant grass, add landscaping, or just enjoy the clean, finished look of a property that’s actually complete. Plus, you eliminate the real problems that come with leaving stumps behind – the termites, carpenter ants, and fungal issues that spread to healthy plants and even your home’s foundation.

We Know Pennsylvania Properties

ABE Tree Service has been handling stump grinding throughout the Lehigh Valley for years. We understand how Pennsylvania soil behaves, which tree species create the toughest root systems, and what it takes to get the job done without tearing up your property.

We’re not the guys who show up with a pickup truck and a chainsaw. We bring professional-grade stump grinding equipment that gets below ground level – because surface-level grinding just creates more problems down the road.

Our Stump Grinding Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess the stump and surrounding area. We check for underground utilities, measure the root spread, and plan our approach to avoid damage to your lawn, driveway, or nearby plants.

Then we bring in the grinder. Our equipment reduces the entire stump to wood chips, grinding 6-12 inches below ground level depending on your needs. This eliminates regrowth and gives you a clean slate for whatever comes next.

Finally, we clean up. The wood chips can stay as natural mulch if you want them, or we’ll haul them away. We rake the area smooth and leave your property cleaner than we found it. Most residential stumps are completely finished in 2-3 hours.

We typically grind 6-12 inches below ground level, which eliminates regrowth and allows you to plant grass or new landscaping directly over the area. The exact depth depends on your future plans for the space and the type of tree. If you’re planning to replant in the same spot, we can go deeper to ensure the new tree has the best chance to establish strong roots without interference from the old stump.
You have options. The wood chips make excellent natural mulch for flower beds and around other trees – they retain moisture and suppress weeds as they decompose. If you don’t want them, we’ll haul them away as part of our cleanup service. Some customers like to keep a portion for mulch and have us remove the rest. We’ll work with whatever makes sense for your property and landscaping plans.
Yes, we handle tight spaces and challenging locations regularly. Our equipment is designed to work in areas where larger machines can’t fit, and we take extra precautions to protect your foundation, driveway, and existing landscape. We’ll assess the situation beforehand and let you know exactly how we’ll approach the job to avoid any damage to your property.
Most residential stumps are completely finished in 2-3 hours, including setup, grinding, and cleanup. Larger stumps or multiple stumps obviously take longer, but we’re efficient with our process. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we assess the job, and we stick to our schedule. Weather can occasionally cause delays, but we’ll communicate any changes well in advance.
Professional stump grinding should not damage your existing landscape when done correctly. We use protective measures and plan our approach to minimize impact on your lawn and nearby plants. Our equipment is designed for precision work, and our team knows how to operate around established landscaping. Any minor surface disruption from equipment access is restored as part of our cleanup process.
Very little preparation is needed on your part. We just need clear access to the stump area – move any outdoor furniture, decorations, or hoses that might be in the way. If you have underground utilities near the stump, let us know so we can take extra precautions. We handle everything else, including marking our own utility lines if needed and protecting your property during the work.
