Stump grinding

Stumps can quickly become an eyesore, tripping hazard, or general nuisance if not properly addressed. There are two common approaches to stump grinding: surface grinding and total removal.

A surface grind is a quicker, more cost-effective option, typically grinding the stump about 6 inches below grade—enough to allow for mowing or covering with soil and reseeding.

Total stump removal involves grinding 10 to 14 inches below grade to eliminate the root plate and includes a wider radius to remove visible surface roots. With either option, the resulting wood mulch can be removed for a cleaner finish at an additional cost. However, the leftover mulch is rich in nutrients and makes an excellent addition to garden beds or tree rings.
