Our full-service tree removal company is fully equipped to remove the stump. We have stump grinders of multiple sizes which allow us to perform this service in most locations and on any size of stump.
These machines grind the stump down 6” – 12” inches below grade and are able to grind visible surface roots as well. Normally, the wood chips are backfilled into the hole. The tree chips created by your tree stump removal are a good source of mulch that can be used around other parts of your yard or property.

Additionally, stump removal can improve the overall health of your lawn and garden. Leftover stumps can hinder the growth of new plants and grass by competing for nutrients and water. By grinding the stump and integrating the wood chips back into the soil, you can create a nutrient-rich mulch that promotes healthy plant growth. Our certified arborists can also advise on the best ways to use the mulch and improve your property’s landscape.
