FAQs – Stump Grinding Services

  • How deep do you grind the stump?

    We typically grind stumps 6–12 inches below the surface, depending on location and future use plans.

  • What happens to the mulch?

    We can leave the mulch behind for garden use or haul it away — your choice.

  • Can you grind stumps next to fences or buildings?

    Yes — we use protective guards and precision equipment to avoid any property damage.

  • Will the stump grow back?

    No — grinding destroys the root collar, preventing regrowth in most cases.
