5 Stars from 1,000's of Happy Customers
“Great from start to completion. We had a 40-foot pine tree that had died and was a hazard — it had to come down quickly. They were out in a couple of days and gave the best quote of the three we got.”
That Stump Is Not Going Anywhere on Its Own
Old stumps are tripping hazards, mower obstacles, and insect magnets, and they slowly sprout new growth if you leave them alone. Grinding is the fast, clean way to be done with one for good.
Our grinders chew the stump down below grade, tight spots and awkward corners included, and if the tree just came down, we grind the stump as part of that tree removal visit. Then we clean up the chips and, if you want, add topsoil and seed so the spot disappears into your lawn.

Grinding Below Grade
We grind the stump well below the surface, timing it right can save you money too, per our piece on why winter is the most affordable time to remove stumps.
Cleanup & Restoration
All grinding debris cleaned up, with optional topsoil and grass seed, or fold it into a standing lawn care plan for a seamless finish.
Tight & Awkward Spots
Next to fences, between beds, close to the house. Our equipment reaches yards in Windsor and every tight spot in between.
Full Stump Removal
When roots are invading a foundation or plumbing, we excavate the entire root ball. Sometimes that root ball is there because owners had good reasons to remove a healthy tree in the first place.
Thinking About Renting a Grinder? Please Don't

What Happens After the Stump Is Gone?
Once the stump is ground, we haul off or spread the chips, your call. Want the spot green again? We add topsoil and grass seed so within weeks you will forget a tree was ever there.
Removing the stump also stops water sprouts from starting a new tree and takes away a favorite home for ants and termites near your house, and if the rest of the tree still needs tree trimming, we can handle both while we're there.

Frequently Asked Questions
Price depends on the stump's diameter, how many you have, and how easy they are to reach. Multiple stumps in one visit cost less per stump. Estimates are free, so get in touch and the number we quote is the number you pay.
Grinding shreds the stump below the surface and leaves the roots to decay naturally, which is what our piece on professional grinding service making quick work of tree stumps covers, and what most yards need. Full removal digs out the entire root ball, which is bigger, messier, and only necessary when roots are invading a foundation or plumbing.
Typically several inches below grade, enough to cover with topsoil and grow grass. If you plan to replant or build in that spot, tell us and we will grind deeper.
Grass, yes, right away with topsoil and seed, which we can do for you. A new tree is better planted a few feet away from the old root zone, and we are happy to advise on the spot.
They stop growing once the stump is gone and decay naturally over several years. They will not sprout a new tree or damage anything in the meantime.
Yes. Rotting stumps are prime real estate for carpenter ants, termites, and other pests, and the closer to your house the stump sits, the more that matters, something our crews have seen plenty of since 1968.
Most residential stumps take under an hour, including cleanup. Large or multiple stumps can take a few hours. Either way it is usually a same-day, in-and-out job.
Stump grinding is a separate line item, and the best time to add it is with your removal estimate so it is all done in one visit. If a full yard of stumps is more than one bill can cover at once, financing is available.
