Why Remove Tree Stumps?
Despite the tree being cut down, when the stump is left in the ground, the roots continue to grow. Poison can put a stop to this regrowth but it can also kill nearby vegetation.
Another all-too common outcome is that the tree stump will rot—all the while creating an eyesore in your yard. Something else that a rotting stump will create is an ideal environment for fungal growth, disease, and vermin. Worst case scenario includes termites.
Basically, unremoved stumps pose a threat to surrounding trees and plants, as well as a hazard to children in your yard. Our competitively-priced stump grinding will fix these problems once and for all.
Just remember, act sooner rather than later. It will cost you nothing to get a quote for any of our licensed and insured tree care services.

Stump Grinding FAQs
Is stump grinding suitable for all types of trees and stumps?
At Arborcare Tree Maintenance, we excel in removing stumps from various tree species with our advanced equipment and experienced arborists. We can handle stumps of any size and location, offering a complete service. Although most stumps are suitable for grinding, we assess each situation individually to ensure our services are safe and effective.
How long does the stump grinding process typically take?
The duration of the stump grinding process depends on the stump’s size, location and surrounding conditions. Our efficient, compact stump grinding equipment enables us to address most stumps quickly. While smaller stumps are removed rapidly, larger or more intricate tasks may require additional time.
What preparation is needed before scheduling stump grinding services?
To prepare for our stump grinding services, we ask that you clear the area around the stump of any debris, rocks or objects that could interfere with the grinding process or pose a safety risk. Additionally, please inform us of any underground utilities near the stump to prevent accidental damage. Upon arrival, our team will conduct a thorough inspection to ensure a safe and efficient operation.
How often should stump grinding be performed to maintain a well-maintained landscape?
Stump grinding is typically a one-off service needed to clear the remains of a cut-down tree. It doesn’t require a recurring schedule in the same spot. Yet, for continuous landscape upkeep, removing new stumps or previously missed ones might be essential. Regular property checks are advised to spot any stumps for removal, improving your landscape’s aesthetics and safety.
Are there any permits or regulations I need to consider before scheduling stump grinding?
Before scheduling stump grinding, it’s important to note that permit requirements and regulations vary by location and project specifics. In some areas, permits might be needed for tree removal services, including stump grinding, especially for trees in public or protected spaces. We recommend consulting your local council or regulatory body to identify any relevant requirements. Our team is knowledgeable about local regulations and ready to help you comply with all necessary guidelines.
