Complete Stump Removal Solutions
Tree stumps are more than eyesores—they're obstacles that limit your property's usability and potential. Whether left behind from storm damage, tree removal, or previous property owners, stumps create tripping hazards, attract pests, and prevent landscaping plans. Our stump removal service completely eliminates stumps and their root systems, leaving you with a clean slate for lawn restoration, new plantings, or construction projects.
Advanced Grinding & Extraction Methods
We offer two primary stump removal methods depending on your needs and site conditions. Stump grinding uses powerful machinery to grind the stump and major roots into wood chips, processing the stump below ground level to allow for replanting or lawn restoration. Our commercial-grade grinders can handle stumps of any size, from small ornamental trees to massive oak stumps over four feet in diameter. For complete extraction needs—particularly for construction sites or when root systems must be entirely removed—we employ excavation methods. Using specialized equipment, we expose and remove the entire stump and root ball, leaving a clean hole ready for backfilling. This method is ideal when you're installing pools, building additions, or need to ensure no roots remain. Both methods are executed with care to minimize impact on surrounding landscape and existing trees. We work efficiently to complete removal quickly while protecting your lawn and nearby plantings.
Stump removal is just the beginning—the extensive root system beneath can extend far beyond the visible stump. Our root management service addresses these underground obstacles that can interfere with construction, plumbing, and new plantings. Using root cutting equipment and excavation when necessary, we remove major roots that could cause future problems. For roots near structures, we carefully expose and cut them without disturbing foundations or utility lines. This is particularly important for older stumps where roots may have grown under driveways, patios, or building foundations. We also treat cut root ends to prevent suckering and regrowth, especially important for species like maples and poplars that aggressively resprout. Our comprehensive approach ensures the tree is truly gone, not just cut down, preventing surprises years later when roots cause drainage issues or buckle hardscapes.

Complete Site Cleanup & Restoration
After stump removal, we don't leave you with a crater and wood chips. Our site restoration service transforms the removal area into usable space. We fill excavated areas with quality topsoil, grade to match surrounding terrain, and can seed or sod immediately for instant lawn restoration. Wood chips from grinding can be spread as mulch in planting beds, hauled away, or used to fill the stump hole depending on your preference. We rake and clear the surrounding area of all debris, ensuring no wood chips migrate into your lawn where they could smother grass. For properties with multiple stumps, we coordinate removals to minimize landscape disruption and complete all restoration work together. If you're planning new plantings in the stump location, we test and amend soil as needed, since decomposing wood chips can temporarily tie up nitrogen. Our goal is to leave the area looking as if the stump never existed.
