Tree Stump Removal & Grinding

Make That Unsightly Stump Disappear — For Good

You had the dangerous tree removed. Good. But now you’re left with an ugly stump sitting right in the middle of your yard. It’s a tripping hazard for kids and guests. It gets in the way when you mow. It sprouts annoying new growth every spring. And it attracts termites, ants, and other pests that can eventually find their way to your home. At Tree Time Elite Tree Care, we don’t just cut trees down — we finish the job. Using professional-grade stump grinding equipment, we grind that stump down to below ground level so you can plant grass, flowers, or even a new tree right over the spot. Our grinder chews through the toughest stumps — oak, pine, pecan, you name it — down to wood chips and sawdust. We can grind stumps of any size, from small nuisance stumps to massive old oak bases that have been sitting in your yard for years. The result is a clean, flat, usable space that looks like the stump was never there. We’ll even rake up the excess wood chips or spread them as mulch if you prefer. No shoveling required on your part. Just call, point to the stump, and watch it disappear.

Why Choose Tree Time Elite Tree Care for Stump Grinding

Some people think they can remove a stump themselves. They dig for hours. They try burning it (dangerous). They rent a cheap grinder from a hardware store and struggle with a machine they’ve never used before. Then they give up and call us anyway. Save yourself the time, money, and frustration. Kevin Lee and his crew use commercial-grade stump grinders that are powerful enough to chew through the toughest hardwoods in minutes, not hours. We know exactly how deep to grind to prevent regrowth and allow for new planting. We also know how to avoid damaging underground utilities, sprinkler lines, or nearby tree roots you want to keep. And unlike DIY attempts that leave a pile of wood chips and a half-destroyed stump, we clean up completely. The hole gets filled with the ground-up wood chips or topsoil — whichever you prefer. Your yard goes back to looking like a yard, not a construction site.

Benefits & What We Do — Stump Removal & Grinding

Grinding is the most common method — we grind the stump down to below ground level using a powerful machine. Full removal means digging out the entire stump and root ball, which leaves a large hole. Grinding is faster, cheaper, and works for most homeowners.

We typically grind 6 to 12 inches below ground level, depending on your future plans. Going deeper allows for new planting or sod. Shallower is fine if you just want to mow over the spot. Kevin will advise you based on your needs.

No. Grinding removes the main stump below ground level, which prevents regrowth. Some roots may send up small shoots temporarily, but without the main stump, they will die off. We can also treat the area if you want extra prevention.

That’s up to you. We can rake the chips flat so they decompose into the soil, remove them entirely, or leave them for you to use as mulch elsewhere. Just tell us your preference when we quote the job.

Yes. Our grinders are precise and maneuverable. We can work within inches of structures without causing damage. For very tight spaces, we can adjust our approach or use smaller equipment. Kevin will assess access during your free estimate.
