Stump Grinding vs. Stump Removal

We offer two solutions to meet your needs:



Stump Grinding: Grinds the stump below ground level, leaving woodchips that can be used for landscaping or filled in for a level surface. This is a fast, cost-effective option.

Stump Removal: Completely extracts the stump and roots for a fully cleared area, ideal for replanting or construction.

Stump Grinding FAQs

  • What’s the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?

    Stump grinding reduces the stump below ground level, leaving woodchips, while stump removal extracts the entire stump and roots. Grinding is more cost-effective, while removal is ideal for replanting. Call 636-352-5411 to discuss options.

  • How long does stump grinding take?

    Most stumps are ground down in 1-2 hours, depending on size and location. Our team uses efficient grinders for quick results and thorough cleanup. Contact us at 636-352-5411 for a free estimate.

  • Can I plant a new tree after stump grinding?

    Yes, grinding allows for replanting in most cases, though full stump removal may be recommended for optimal root space. We’ll assess your site and advise. Reach out at 636-352-5411 for guidance.
