WHEN TREE STUMPS NEED TO BE REMOVED WE CAN HELP

What is Stump Grinding?

Stump grinding includes grinding the visible stump into fine woodchips with the use of a specialist machine and an experienced stump grinding operator. These woodchips can then be recycled or used to completely backfill the remaining hole, or if you prefer, we can plant a new tree in the same spot. 

Stump grinding is a less invasive, efficient and speedier approach to getting rid of unsightly stumps.

If you’re still unsure whether grinding or removal is preferable for your property, our professional arborists offer sound advice.
