After a tree is removed, the stump that’s left behind can be more than just an eyesore. It can pose safety risks and even attract pests. Our professional stump grinding service is the fastest and most effective way to remove these hazards and reclaim your property. Here are the key benefits of grinding a stump:
The cost to remove a stump depends on the tree’s size, how deep we need to go, whether we remove that root ball, and what is required to restore the space for what comes next. We offer free estimates and on-site consultations. Get yours today!
We typically go down 6 to 10 inches below the ground surface for stump grinding, but we can adjust based on your specific needs and preferences.
Stump grinding is when a grinding machine grinds down the stump and above-ground root zone to 6 to 10 inches below the surface to stop the tree from growing back after removal. Stump grinding is the way to go if you are constructing an outdoor living space or deck or covering the area with sod.
Stump removal is when we use excavators and extractors to remove the stump and root ball. It is a more invasive and costly method of removing a stump that is only required if you plan to plant a new tree where the old one stood or prepare the site for certain kinds of development.
Once the stump has been removed, a large hole is left that we fill and then grade the property to restore it.
We offer free consultations to help you decide whether you need stump grinding or removal.
You do not need to be home when we complete the work. We will ensure the job is done safely and professionally.
Generally, it is not advisable to grind roots without potentially harming the tree. A consultation with one of our arborists can provide further insight.
Yes, we can remove root balls as part of our comprehensive tree services. The cost to remove the root ball depends on its size and location.
We recommend planting a new tree at least 10 feet away from where the old tree was.
We always aim to minimize yard damage. However, some operations may cause minor indentations. We’ll work to restore the yard to its original condition as much as possible.
It is not always necessary; grinding out stumps can prevent pest infestations, reduce safety hazards, and improve your landscape’s aesthetics. If the tree was not infected or infested, transforming the stump into a habitat snag provides a home for the wildlife that once called your tree home and hours of wildlife-watching enjoyment.
