Stump Grinding you can rely on
An old stump is a trip hazard, a lawn-mower snag and a home for termites and pests. We grind stumps out below ground level, so you can lay turf, plant a garden bed or build over the spot.
We can grind the same day we remove the tree, or come back to stumps left from earlier work. Grindings can be left to mulch down, raked away or removed.
When you might need it
- A stump is in the way of lawn mowing or a new garden
- You want to build, pave or lay a path over the spot
- Stumps are sprouting or attracting pests
- You’d rather not wait years for a stump to rot

Stump Grinding FAQs
How deep do you grind?
We normally grind well below ground level, far enough to lay turf or plant over the top. If you’re building over the area we’ll talk about depth first.
Grinding or full stump removal?
Grinding is quicker, cheaper and causes less disruption. Full removal digs the whole root ball out and suits sites that need a clean footing. Read more: stump grinding vs stump removal.
Can you get into a tight backyard?
Usually, yes. We have machines that fit through standard gates. We’ll check access when we quote.
What happens to the mulch?
You can keep it for garden beds, have it spread, or we’ll take it away. It breaks down quickly, so it’s a good base for turf if mixed with soil.
