The most affordable, efficient, and safest way to get a stump removed

If you're the do-it-yourself type and considering renting your own gas-powered stump grinder to take care of the job yourself, note that our prices for removing one or two stumps will often be less than the cost to rent a stump grinder for the day. You can always call us for a free estimate and find out for sure. You'll also need a vehicle with a trailer hitch to tow the machine, which can be another expense if you don't already have one. Also, note that using a stump grinder is a hazardous operation unless you have the proper training, so if you do go that route, you'll want to ensure that your dealer gives you complete training before you try to operate it! We suggest that you hire our tree service for these types of jobs, as you'll be safe and sound indoors while we take all the mess and hassle out of the operation.

Our certified arborists have the latest stump-grinding techniques and equipment

When a tree falls, or after hiring a tree removal service, stump grinding is necessary for safety and curb appeal purposes. The process that our tree service uses to remove and grind your tree stumps is this. First, we go in by hand, with a shovel, to remove any loose or embedded rocks around the stump. These rocks pose a hazard and can damage our cutting wheel if not removed. We then take a chainsaw and trim the stump as close to the ground as possible. This is one of the extra steps we take to make the job even quicker and more efficient. It's not absolutely necessary but is a mark of professionalism as far as we are concerned. Our tree care company is second to none when it comes to removing trees and stumps with the best techniques.

Next, we raise the grinder wheel a few inches above the stump using the hydraulic lever. We swing the wheel in a side-to-side motion to efficiently clear out the wood. Every four inches or so, we raise the wheel, move in closer, and go at it once again. We continue that process until we have ground through the entire stump. Then we rake up all the wood chips and either haul them away or leave them for you if you have specified that you'd like to use them for mulch or landscaping materials. Finally, we tamp down and rake the soil, and if necessary, spread a layer of grass seed which we then rake into the soil. You'll be responsible for watering the area on a regular basis until your grass has taken root. After removing a stump or tree, our lot clearing service is highly recommended. Our clients usually hire our complete tree service with stump grinding and tree removal service. Your yard is in skilled hands with our tree care services in Macomb County and surrounding areas.
