What is Stump Grinding?
Stump grinding is the process of grinding down a tree stump below ground level, using a specialized machine called a stump grinder. This method is quicker and more efficient than stump removal, which digs out the entire stump and roots. It’s a safer, eco-friendly way to deal with stumps compared to chemical stump removal methods, and it leaves your landscape ready for new projects.
