Why Grind Instead of Leaving the Stump?
Old stumps are more than an eyesore. They attract termites, carpenter ants, and other wood-boring insects that can spread to your home. Stumps also send up new shoots that require constant maintenance, and they create tripping hazards for your family and guests. Grinding eliminates all of these problems in a single visit.
- Wood chip fill and grading of the ground area

Frequently Asked Questions
How deep does stump grinding go?
We typically grind stumps 6-12 inches below grade level, which is deep enough to cover with soil and plant grass. Deeper grinding is available if you plan to replant a tree or install a structure in the same spot.
What happens to the wood chips from stump grinding?
Stump grinding produces a pile of wood chips mixed with soil. We can leave them for you to use as mulch, spread them in the hole and surrounding area, or haul them away completely -- your choice at no extra charge.
How long does stump grinding take?
Most residential stumps take 30-60 minutes to grind. Larger stumps or those with extensive root systems may take 1-2 hours. We can typically grind multiple stumps in a single visit for efficiency.
Will stump grinding kill the roots?
Grinding the stump removes the growth point, so most trees will not regrow. Some species like elms and willows may send up shoots from remaining roots, but these are easily managed and typically stop within a season.
Can you grind a stump near a fence or driveway?
Yes, our equipment can access tight spaces. We use compact grinders for stumps near fences, driveways, foundations, and landscaping. We take precautions to protect surrounding surfaces from debris.
