Our process includes initially cutting the stump as close to the ground as possible, followed by systematic grinding until it is 3 inches below the surface level. This not only completely removes the visual obstacle, but also prevents future problems such as attracting pests (termites and ants), continued root growth that can damage nearby structures, and tripping hazards. The area is left completely clean and ready for new landscaping projects. The entire process takes between 60-90 minutes depending on the size and species of the tree.
