Can you grind a stump close to a fence, house, or pipes?

Usually, yes. When grinding isn't safe, like near buried pipes, we can hand-dig the stump out instead.

Can I keep the grindings?

Absolutely. The chips make great mulch for garden beds. Just tell us how much you want to keep.

Do you grind stumps from trees you didn't remove?

Yes. Old stumps, other companies' leftovers, whatever you've got.

We've ground out everything from a single small stump to three huge sequoia stumps on a property line. We've even hand-dug stumps where grinding would have hit buried pipes. No job too small or too big.

Why Remove Tree Stumps?

Safety Hazards

Stumps are easy to trip over, especially in play areas and high-traffic parts of the yard.

Pest Attraction

Decaying stumps attract ants, termites, and beetles that can eventually find their way to your home.

Obstruction

Stumps get in the way of mowing and landscaping and make yard care harder than it should be.

Unwanted Regrowth

Some stumps keep sending up suckers and sprouts. Grinding stops the cycle.

Our Stump Removal Process

1
Assessment
We check the stump's size, location, and anything buried nearby (irrigation, pipes, utilities) to pick the right approach.
2
Grinding
We grind the stump below soil level, removing the visible stump and the root flare.
3
Debris Removal
We clean up the wood chips and debris, or leave some behind as free mulch if you'd like.
4
Filling & Leveling
We fill the hole with topsoil and level it, ready for your next landscaping project.
