Why Choose Stump Grinding or Removal?
Even after professional tree removal, unsightly and potentially hazardous stumps can remain. There are two options for you to remove the eyesore and keep your landscape safe.
While both methods eliminate stumps, they offer different benefits.
One option would be Stump Grinding. This cost-effective approach grinds the stump into small chips, leaving behind mulch that can enrich your soil. Grinding is ideal for most situations and creates minimal impact on your landscape.
The other is Stump Removal. This method completely removes the entire stump and root system below ground level. Removal is ideal when you plan to replant in the same location or require a completely level surface.

7 Benefits Of Tree Stump Removal & Grinding
It just looks better: A leftover tree stump can be an eyesore in your otherwise beautiful backyard, or the front. Removing it creates a clean and tidy environment.
Safety First: Stumps are tripping hazards, especially for kids and older folks. Grinding that stump eliminates the risk of accidents.
No More Pests: Rotting stumps attract insects like termites and carpenter ants. Getting rid of the stump helps keep those insects away from your home.
Reclaim Your Space: That stump takes up valuable yard space. Once it's gone, you can plant new flowers, create a garden, or just have more room to play.
Stop the Sprouts: Some tree stumps keep trying to grow new shoots, which can be a pain to deal with. Grinding gets rid of the problem at the root.
Easier Mowing: Stumps get in the way of mowing and make your lawn look uneven. With the stump gone, it makes lawn mowing easier.
Property Value: A well-maintained yard (without any hazards!) makes your property more attractive to potential buyers if you ever decide to sell.
