How Grinding Removes the Stump Below the Surface

We bring a stump grinder to your property in Ellenwood and position it over the stump. The machine uses a rotating cutting wheel to grind the wood down several inches below ground level, removing the visible stump and the upper root structure.

After grinding, you will see a shallow depression filled with wood chips where the stump used to be. The area can be covered with soil and seeded, or left as mulch depending on your plans for the space.

We can grind stumps of nearly any size and work around fences, walkways, and flower beds. Wood chips are included in the service and can be hauled away if you prefer. Grinding prevents regrowth and eliminates the need to dig out roots by hand.

Here are the questions we hear most often

Before scheduling stump grinding, homeowners usually ask about timing, what will be left behind, and whether the stump will grow back.

How deep do you grind the stump?
We typically grind stumps six to eight inches below ground level. This is deep enough to plant grass or install landscaping without interference from remaining roots.
Will the stump grow back after grinding?
No, grinding removes enough of the root structure to prevent regrowth. You may see small shoots in the first few months, but they can be pulled easily and will stop appearing.
What do you do with the wood chips?
We leave the wood chips on site unless you request removal. Many homeowners use them as mulch in garden beds or around other trees.
Can you grind a stump close to my fence or driveway?
Yes, stump grinders are maneuverable and can work in tight spaces near fences, driveways, and other structures. We take care to avoid damaging surrounding features.
How long does stump grinding take?
Most residential stumps take 30 minutes to an hour depending on size and root spread. Larger stumps or multiple stumps may take longer.
