Problematic Tree Stumps Ruin Your Landscape
Once a tree is removed, what’s left behind can be just as frustrating. Stumps are not only unsightly—they can attract termites and fungi, damage your mower, and interfere with new landscaping plans. Worse, some stumps can even sprout back over time.
Get Rid of the Problem for Good
Grinding a stump down is one of the most effective ways to eliminate these issues. Our team uses powerful equipment to turn the stump into mulch, remove root structures, and level the ground—leaving behind nothing but clean, usable space.
Our Stump Grinding Services
Our process goes beyond the basics. Here’s what we include with every stump removal project:

Stump Grinding
We use commercial-grade grinders to turn stumps into chips and level the ground at the same time. It’s fast, clean, and keeps the rest of your yard untouched.
Debris Cleanup and Disposal
As part of our stump grinding service, we grind each stump down approximately 6 inches below grade to ensure a clean, even surface for future landscaping or lawn restoration. Once grinding is complete, we meticulously smooth the wood chips and debris back out, leaving the area level with the surrounding ground for a neat and finished appearance. This thorough cleanup ensures minimal disruption to your property and a professional result every time.
