Stump Grinding

“Stump grinding has neat results and is friendly to the environment. Usually, after stump grinding, only small roots are left, which are unlikely to regrow.”

Stump grinding is usually the last stage of permanent tree removal, and eliminating stumps is important in terms of both safety and aesthetics. Not only are stumps a bit of an eyesore, but they can also start to grow weeds or mold. Stumps are also a trip hazard and could damage or break appliances like lawnmowers. Finally, stumps can encourage pests and diseases, attracting beetles and termites which might pose environmental concerns.

We can use stump grinding machines to cut stumps down to your desired height, excavating the stump of the tree. Mechanical stump grinding is the quickest method and the efficiency of the process depends on the size of the cutter head, the power of the machine and the proficiency of the operator.

We use stump grinding machines, which operate with a large flywheel equipped with cutting teeth. The operator moves the cutter head over the stump, and grinds away at the stump slowly. Machines come in many shapes and sizes, allowing us to take into consideration the surroundings and size of the stump, but our stump grinding expertise enables us to have accurate control over the job, meaning there’s minimal disruption to the surrounding area.

We can easily remove any wood chippings left behind – or you can use the wood chippings left behind by stump grinding for mulch in borders.
