Stump grinding and removal, done carefully

An old stump gets in the way of mowing, trips people, and draws ants and fungus. Grinding chews it down below the soil so you can plant grass, a garden or a new tree in the same spot.

Our grinder fits through most side gates, so backyards aren't a problem.

Good reasons to grind a stump

  • You mow around it every week
  • It's rotting and drawing ants or mushrooms
  • You want to plant or build where it sits
  • New shoots keep sprouting from the roots
  • It's a tripping hazard near a walkway

What we do

  1. Call for utility locates before we dig
  2. Grind the stump 15 to 30 cm below the surface
  3. Grind out large surface roots nearby if you want
  4. Leave the chips as mulch or haul them away
  5. Fill the hole with soil on request

What it costs

Grinding one stump usually costs $150 to $450, depending on its width. Extra stumps on the same visit cost less each.

Ash stumps everywhere

Emerald ash borer killed most of the ash trees around Cooksville, and many yards still have the stump to show for it. We grind them out so you can use the space again.

Questions about stump grinding and removal

How deep do you grind?

Usually 15 to 30 cm below the surface, deep enough for new sod or a garden bed.

What happens to the roots?

The big roots left underground rot away over a few years. We can grind out any that sit near the surface.

Can you plant a new tree in the same spot?

It's better to plant a little to one side, where the soil isn't full of chips and old roots.

Is it included with a removal?

It's quoted as its own line, so you can decide. Most people add it to a tree removal.
