A leftover stump is an eyesore, a tripping hazard, a mower killer, and an open invitation to termites and carpenter ants. Our stump grinders take them down 6–12 inches below grade so you can sod, plant, or pour over the spot.

Most homeowners do not realize that a stump can keep growing for years after the tree is gone. Suckers sprout from the root collar, fungi colonize the wood, and the decaying root mass slowly settles, creating a depression in the lawn. Grinding eliminates all of that.
We use both ride-on and walk-behind grinders depending on access. A fenced Huntsville backyard with a 36-inch gate is no problem — our compact unit fits through. Wide-open commercial lots get the big machine and a one-pass finish.
After grinding, you are left with a pile of clean wood mulch. We can rake it back into the hole as cheap, free backfill (it settles over a year), haul it off, or top it with screened topsoil so you can seed grass right away.
Most single stumps run $85–$300. Multi-stump jobs and large hardwoods price by trunk diameter or total grinding time. Free quotes on site or over the phone.
