Our Stump Grinding Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

We start by assessing the stump size, root system, and surrounding area to determine the best approach. Our equipment can handle stumps from small ornamental trees to massive oaks that have been growing for decades.

The grinding process removes the stump 6-12 inches below ground level, which prevents regrowth and allows you to plant or build over the area. We work systematically to ensure complete removal while protecting your surrounding landscape.

After grinding, we remove the wood chips (unless you want them for mulch) and backfill the area with soil. The site is left level and ready for seeding, planting, or whatever your next project requires. Most residential stumps are completed in a few hours, and you can use the area immediately.

No surprise charges for cleanup, no extra fees for “difficult access,” and no pressure to buy additional services you don’t need. We handle emergency situations when storms create immediate hazards, and most routine jobs can be scheduled within days of your call.

Stump grinding costs depend on the diameter and complexity of the job, but most residential stumps in Lynnville range from $100-400. Small stumps under 12 inches typically cost less, while large stumps over 24 inches or those in difficult locations cost more. We provide upfront pricing based on stump size, root system complexity, and site access. The price includes complete grinding below ground level, cleanup, and backfilling – no hidden fees or surprise charges after we start the work.
We grind stumps 6-12 inches below ground level, which is deep enough to prevent regrowth and allow you to plant or build over the area. The exact depth depends on the tree species and your future plans for the space. If you’re planning to replant in the same spot, we can grind deeper to ensure the new tree’s roots won’t compete with remaining wood. For lawn areas, 6-8 inches is typically sufficient for seeding and normal use.
Yes, our equipment can navigate spaces as narrow as 36 inches, which means we can reach most backyard stumps even when access is limited. We regularly remove stumps between houses, near pools, close to foundations, and in areas where larger equipment can’t fit. We use protective measures to prevent damage to nearby structures, landscaping, or hardscaping. If there’s a path to the stump that’s wide enough for our equipment, we can typically handle the job without requiring alternative access or hand removal methods.
We remove all wood chips and debris unless you specifically want to keep them for mulch or other uses. The wood chips from fresh stump grinding aren’t ideal for immediate garden use since they can tie up soil nitrogen as they decompose, but they work well for pathways or can be composted. After chip removal, we backfill the area with soil and leave it level and ready for your next step, whether that’s seeding grass, planting, or construction.
Most residential stumps take 1-3 hours to grind and clean up completely. Small stumps under 12 inches can often be finished in 30-60 minutes, while large stumps over 30 inches may take half a day. The timeline depends on stump size, root system complexity, and site access. Multiple stumps can usually be handled in the same visit. We’ll give you an estimated timeframe when we provide your quote, and most jobs are completed in a single visit.
Yes, we provide emergency stump removal services when storms create immediate safety hazards or block access to your property. Storm-damaged trees often leave unstable stumps with compromised root systems that need immediate attention. We prioritize emergency calls and can typically respond within 24 hours for urgent situations. Emergency services may have different pricing due to the immediate response requirement, but we’ll explain all costs upfront before beginning any work.
