Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our stump grinding services

How deep do you grind the stump?

We typically grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level, which is sufficient for most landscaping needs including planting grass or installing new plants. If you need deeper grinding for construction purposes, we can accommodate that with our specialized equipment for an additional charge.

Do you remove the roots as well?

Standard stump grinding does not include complete root removal. We focus on grinding the visible stump and some of the major surface roots. For complete root removal, we offer additional services that can address larger roots, though it's important to note that tree roots can extend far beyond the stump area. Over time, remaining roots will naturally decompose.

How long does the stump grinding process take?

The time required depends on the size and type of stump. Small stumps (under 12" diameter) typically take 30-60 minutes to grind. Medium stumps (12-24" diameter) may take 1-2 hours, while large stumps (over 24" diameter) can take 2-3 hours or more. Multiple stumps are more efficient as we only need to set up our equipment once.

What happens to the wood chips after grinding?

As part of our standard service, we use the wood chips mixed with soil to fill the hole left by the stump grinding. This creates a natural compost that helps with decomposition and provides nutrients for future plantings. If you prefer, we can remove all wood chips for an additional fee, or leave extra chips for your use in garden beds or pathways.

Can you grind stumps in difficult-to-access areas?

Yes! We have specialized equipment including compact stump grinders that can access areas with limited space, such as fenced backyards, narrow side yards, or areas with gates. Our technicians will assess the access during the quote process and determine the best approach for your specific situation.

How soon can I plant grass or landscaping after stump grinding?

You can plant grass or install new landscaping immediately after our service is complete. However, the ground may settle slightly over time as the remaining underground roots decompose. For best results with new grass, we recommend adding a layer of topsoil before seeding. For construction projects, you may want to allow some time for settling or consider additional soil compaction.
