What is stump grinding?
Stump grinding is the process of removing a stump with specialized equipment that grinds the stump into small pieces. The machine itself has a cutting wheel with metal teeth that rotates​, which is what breaks down the stump into wood chips or saw dust.
Why should a stump be removed?
There are several considerations, including:
- Stumps can be unattractive and lower the value of your property
- Stump can create a safety hazard in high-traffic areas
- Stumps take up room on your property that can be utilized for other purposes
- Deteriorating stumps can attract insect pests and diseases that may affect the health of other nearby vegetation
- New construction sites typically need level ground to begin building
How much does stump grinding cost?
The cost of stump grinding ranges from $2 to $4 per inch of diameter of the stump. Although grinding a stump typically costs less than fully removing it, the cost of our stump grinding service will depend on a number of factors, including:
- Stump diameter
Not surprisingly, larger stumps are harder to remove than smaller stumps. The cost increases with each inch of the stump.
- Stump age
Older stumps may be softer because they've had time to rot, which makes them easier to grind. But, some tree species actually become harder if left to bake in the sun.
- Tree species
Each tree species has a different grain and hardness. Some are more challenging to grind, others are easier to grind.
- Root system
Old, large trees have an extensive root system that can be time consuming to grind. Younger trees, or those with a less extensive root system, can be easier to grind. You can also opt for a shallower grind service; however, this does leave more of the root system intact.
- Clean up
This cost will be included in the price of the service. If you have need for wood chips and saw dust on your landscaping, we can leave the debris for you.
- Number of stumps
This one is fairly obvious. The more stumps that you have to grind, the higher the cost. With that said, we are reasonable with the cost of each additional stump.
Stump grinding requires the use of heavy equipment and it can be dangerous if performed by someone without the proper training. We suggest leaving it to the professionals! Plus, we offer a suite of tree services to complement the removal of your stump. We can also give you an estimate on our tree removal services.
