Our Stump Grinding Process

Simple Process, Complete Results

First, we assess your stump and the surrounding area. We check for underground utilities, sprinkler lines, and anything else that needs to be avoided. Then we position our grinder and get to work.

Our machine grinds the stump down below ground level – typically 6 to 8 inches down, sometimes more depending on your needs. We don’t just take off the top and call it done. The entire root system gets ground up so you won’t have issues with regrowth.

After grinding, we clean up the wood chips and debris. You can keep the chips for mulch if you want them, or we’ll haul them away. Either way, you’re left with a clean area ready for grass seed, landscaping, or whatever comes next.

We typically grind stumps 6 to 8 inches below ground level, but we can go deeper if needed for your specific project. This depth ensures the stump won’t interfere with lawn mowing, planting, or construction. If you’re planning to build something over the area or need deeper removal for landscaping, just let us know and we’ll adjust accordingly. The goal is to make sure you never have to deal with that stump again.
Our equipment is designed to access stumps without damaging surrounding landscaping. We use track-mounted grinders that distribute weight evenly and can maneuver in tight spaces. Before starting, we assess the area and plan our approach to protect your existing plants, lawn, and any hardscaping. If there are delicate plants nearby, we’ll take extra precautions or discuss the best approach with you. Most of the time, any minor lawn disturbance from our equipment is easily repaired and much less invasive than trying to dig stumps out by hand.
You have options with the wood chips. Many homeowners like to keep them for mulch around other trees and garden beds – they’re great for retaining moisture and suppressing weeds. If you don’t want them, we’ll haul them away as part of our cleanup service. We can also spread them in wooded areas of your property if you prefer. The chips are fresh and natural, so they’re perfectly safe to use in landscaping, though we recommend letting them age a bit before using them around sensitive plants.
Stump grinding costs depend on the size of the stump, its location, and how many you need removed. Most residential stumps in the Kuhnsville area range from $75 to $300 per stump. Larger stumps or those in difficult locations cost more, while multiple stumps often qualify for volume pricing. We provide upfront estimates with no surprises – what we quote is what you pay. The estimate includes grinding, cleanup, and debris removal unless you want to keep the wood chips.
Yes, we regularly handle stumps in tight spaces near houses, fences, and other structures. Our equipment is designed for precision work, and we have smaller grinders for areas where access is limited. We take extra care around foundations, utility lines, and property boundaries. Before starting, we’ll discuss any concerns about nearby structures and explain exactly how we’ll approach the job. In most cases, we can get much closer to buildings and fences than homeowners expect without causing any damage.
Most residential stumps take 30 minutes to 2 hours to grind completely, depending on size and root system complexity. Small stumps from ornamental trees might be done in 15-20 minutes, while large oak or maple stumps can take several hours. We also factor in setup time, cleanup, and any site preparation needed. When we give you an estimate, we’ll provide a realistic timeframe so you can plan accordingly. We work efficiently but never rush the job – it’s better to take the time needed to do it right the first time.
