Why Tree Stump Removal Matters

Old tree stumps create more problems than most property owners expect. They can become tripping hazards, attract pests, and make mowing or grading difficult. A professional tree stump removal service eliminates these issues and prepares your land for the next phase.

Removing stumps also prevents regrowth and allows you to move forward with new landscaping, fencing, driveways, or complete site preparation projects.

  • Improve safety and reduce tripping hazards
  • Prevent termite and carpenter ant problems
  • Open up space for landscaping or construction
  • Make mowing and yard maintenance easier
  • Increase curb appeal and property value

Our Stump Removal Process

Every property is different, so we tailor the stump removal process to your site. We use excavation equipment to remove the stump, roots, and buried wood so the area can be compacted and built on.

Step 1 – On-Site Evaluation

We review stump size, root spread, utilities, access, and nearby structures. This helps us choose the safest and most efficient approach for your project.

Step 2 – Equipment Setup & Root Exposure

Using professional equipment, we carefully expose the root system and separate the stump from the surrounding soil without causing unnecessary damage.

Step 3 – Complete Stump and Root Removal

Our team performs full stump and root system removal so hidden roots do not interfere with building, sidewalks, or future landscaping.

Step 4 – Backfill, Compact, and Smooth

Once the stump is removed, we backfill the area, compact the soil, and smooth the surface so it is ready for site preparation or planting.

Stump Grinding vs Stump Removal

Many people search for stump grinding, but grinding is only part of the story. Grinding reduces the stump at the surface, yet leaves most of the root system in the ground. For some yards this is enough, but for future construction or leveling, grinding alone can create problems.

Stump Grinding

  • Grinds stump down at or below soil level
  • Most roots remain underground
  • Good for basic lawn and landscaping
  • Future digging may still hit buried wood

Full Stump Removal

  • Removes stump and major root system
  • Better for construction, driveways, and grading
  • Reduces chance of regrowth or sinkholes
  • Leaves a clean area ready for site preparation

How Much Does Tree Stump Removal Cost?

Stump removal costs vary based on stump diameter, root depth, quantity, access, and soil conditions. Most typical residential stump removal jobs fall within a reasonable range, and larger or more complex projects are priced individually.

Instead of guessing, the best way to get accurate pricing is to send a photo or call us with details about your project.

Tree Stump Removal FAQs

How much does tree stump removal cost?

Pricing depends on stump size, quantity, access, and soil conditions. The fastest way to get an accurate estimate is to send us a photo and share how many stumps you have.

Does stump removal include the roots?

Yes, our stump removal service focuses on removing the stump and major root system so you can move forward with grading, site preparation, or new construction.

Is stump removal better than stump grinding?

For basic landscaping, stump grinding can work. If you plan to build, install a driveway, or change the grade, full stump removal is usually the better long-term option because the roots are removed instead of left underground.

Will stump removal damage my yard?

There will be some soil disturbance around the stump, but we backfill, compact, and smooth the area when we are finished. Our goal is to leave the site in better shape and ready for your next project.

Can you remove multiple stumps at once?

Yes. Removing several stumps in a single visit is often more cost-effective. You can note how many stumps you have on the photo upload form.

Do you haul away the stump debris?

We can pile the material on-site or use our property cleanup services to remove debris so your property is clean when we are finished.
