Why Remove Tree Stumps?

Leaving old stumps in the ground can lead to a range of problems for your property:

  • Safety hazards for children, pets, and lawn equipment
  • Attraction for termites, beetles, and other wood-boring pests
  • Obstacles for mowing or landscaping
  • Potential for regrowth from leftover roots
  • Reduced curb appeal and usability of yard space

Grinding eliminates the entire visible portion of the stump and several inches below ground level — leaving your property clear, smooth, and ready for new landscaping or planting.

Our Stump Grinding Process

1. Inspection & Marking

Our team evaluates the stump’s size, depth, and proximity to structures or utilities.

2. Precision Grinding

Using specialized grinding equipment, we reduce the stump to wood chips several inches below grade.

3. Debris Removal or Reuse

You can choose to have the wood chips hauled away or repurposed as mulch.

4. Site Cleanup

We rake and level the area so it’s ready for replanting, reseeding, or redesigning.
