Say Goodbye To Stumps
Stump grinding is the most effective method of removing tree stumps. Unlike full stump excavation, which can tear up your land, grinding breaks the wood down into fine mulch while leaving surrounding soil and landscaping intact. It’s especially ideal for properties with tight access or established gardens, and it’s far less disruptive than traditional removal methods. Our stump grinders come in various sizes to match the job—whether it’s a small garden stump or a large, stubborn hardwood.
After grinding, we also offer mulching options. The resulting wood chips can be reused on-site for garden beds or compost, helping reduce waste and support eco-friendly landscaping. And because we’re experienced in handling tricky terrain and confined spaces, you can count on us to work safely and efficiently without damaging your property. Get in touch with our team on 0423 280 864 to discuss your stump grinding needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is stump grinding better than removing the whole stump?
Yes, in most cases. Grinding is more cost-effective, less labour-intensive, and far less damaging to the surrounding landscape than full stump removal. Removing a stump entirely often involves heavy machinery, excavation, and root extraction, which can leave your yard looking like a construction site. Grinding, on the other hand, eliminates the visible stump while causing minimal disruption. It’s also quicker and more suitable for areas with limited access or delicate surroundings.
Can a tree grow back after stump grinding?
Some trees with aggressive root systems may attempt to sprout new growth even after grinding. However, grinding significantly reduces the chances of regrowth by removing the bulk of the stump and the upper root crown. If you’re concerned about regrowth, applying a non-toxic root inhibitor or removing surface shoots as they appear can help stop the process.
What should I do with the mulch after stump grinding?
The mulch created from stump grinding is a mix of wood chips and soil. It can be repurposed for garden beds, used as a weed suppressant, or added to compost piles. If you don’t want to keep the mulch, you can ask your stump grinding provider to remove it as part of the clean-up.
