Stump grinding below grade.

A stump left in the yard sprouts, rots, draws termites, and gets in the way of the mower. We grind stumps 6 to 12 inches below the surface so the spot can be sodded, planted, or built on.

What we grind

  • Fresh stumps from a removal
  • Old stumps that have been there for years
  • Multiple stumps on a cleared lot
  • Surface roots that heave sidewalks and driveways

What happens to the chips

  • Backfilled into the hole and tamped, ready for topsoil and seed
  • Hauled off if you want a clean hole
  • Spread as mulch in your beds

Questions about stump grinding

How deep do you grind?

Standard is 6 to 8 inches below grade. We go deeper for building sites and pours.

Can you get to a stump in my backyard?

Our grinders fit through a 36-inch gate.

Will the stump grow back?

Not once it is ground. Sprouts come from stumps left at the surface.
