Questions

Stump grinding questions.

How much does it cost to grind one stump?
Typically $150–$500 a stump, depending on its width, the roots and how easy it is to reach. Several stumps on one visit are quoted together. Your written quote is the price.
How deep do you grind?
Below ground level, deep enough for lawn or garden beds. If you plan to build, pave or replant on the spot, tell us and we grind deeper. The depth is written on the quote.
Will the stump grow back?
Most stumps do not regrow once ground out. Some species can sucker from the roots left behind; if that happens, the shoots can be cut or treated.
Can you get a grinder through a narrow gate?
Usually, yes. The walk-behind grinder fits through most side gates. Tell us the gate width or send a photo when you ask for a quote.
What happens to the grindings?
Your choice: left as mulch, spread back into the hole, or taken away. It is written on the quote.
Is stump grinding included when you remove a tree?
Only if you want it. Removal leaves the stump cut low; grinding is its own line on the quote, so you choose.
