Reasons to Remove Tree Stumps?
Even after a tree is cut down, the roots of the stump can continue to grow. While poison can halt this regrowth, it may also harm nearby plants.
A common issue is that the stump will eventually rot, becoming an eyesore in your yard. Additionally, a decaying stump creates a perfect breeding ground for fungi, disease, and pests, with termites being a worst-case scenario.
In short, leaving stumps in place can threaten nearby trees and plants and pose safety risks for children playing in your yard. Our competitively priced stump grinding services can resolve these issues once and for all.

Tree Stump Removal FAQs
What is the difference between stump removal and stump grinding?
Stump removal involves excavating the entire stump and roots from the ground, while stump grinding grinds the stump down to below ground level, leaving the roots intact.
Is stump grinding safe for my yard?
Yes, stump grinding is generally safe. Our team assesses the area beforehand to minimise any potential risks to surrounding plants, structures, and utilities.
How long does it take to grind a stump?
The time required depends on the size and number of stumps. Most jobs can be completed within a few hours, and we’ll provide a more accurate estimate during our consultation.
What happens to the leftover wood chips?
After grinding, you can choose to keep the wood chips for mulch or we can remove them for you, depending on your preference.
Will grinding the stump prevent new growth?
Yes, stump grinding effectively prevents new shoots from sprouting by removing the visible part of the stump. However, some roots may still be alive, so regular monitoring is recommended.
