Stump Removal

Beautifying Your Garden, One Stump Removal at a Time

Professional Tree Stump Removal Service

When a tree falls or is removed, the remaining stump can be unsightly and even a hazard. Ed’s Tree Service removes stumps with minimum disruption to the surrounding yard, leaving your yard more beautiful and hazard-free.

Efficient and effective stump removal requires several steps to properly remove a tree stump. It requires the right skills, the best machines and equipment for the job, and expertise. Once the stump has been removed, it’s our environmentally friendly practice to let the resulting mulch replenish your soil. If you prefer a different method, we can haul the mulch and replace it with topsoil and seed for an additional charge.

Stump Grinding

Stump removal machines are the key to efficiently grind stumps into mulch. Our licensed tree experts assess the size of the tree stump(s) and select the best machines for each stump grind and removal.


Large Stump Removal

For a large stump removal, the machine arrives at your property trailered by a pickup truck. Our driver will carefully back the truck and stump removal machine across your yard to reach the large tree stump. We will grind the stump down 12 inches below the surface to effectively destroy the root ball.

Small Stump Removal

Smaller stump machines are self-propelled and do not need to be moved into place by a truck. The machines are designed to fit through 36-inch-wide openings and will grind smaller stumps down 2-6 inches below the surface.


Why You Need Licensed Experts for Tree Stump Grinding and Removal

Our stump removal process includes grinding of the stump itself plus an additional foot of surrounding ground. We do this in order to reach larger underlying roots that may be lurking underneath. If needed, we will grind larger areas to remove unsightly or annoying surface roots as well.

Once we grind the stump into mulch, we use that mulch to back-fill the hole. Over time, the stump mulch will settle back into the ground and nourish your soil. If you prefer, we can remove the ground stump mulch and replace it with topsoil and seed for an additional charge.
