How Stump Grinding Works

Stump grinding is carried out using powerful specialist machinery fitted with a rotating cutting wheel designed to grind away the remaining stump safely and efficiently below ground level. Depending on the location and size of the stump, different machines may be used to access smaller gardens, narrow pathways or larger open areas.

Once the stump has been ground out, the remaining material is left as wood mulch which can often be reused within borders or compost areas if required. Grinding below surface level also allows the area to be re-landscaped, re-turfed or replanted far more easily.

Stumps may create trip hazards within lawns, pathways, driveways and family gardens.
Some stumps can begin producing new shoots or regrowth over time.

Tree Stump Grinding FAQs

How much does tree stump grinding cost?

The cost depends on the size, number and location of the stumps, along with access to the site. We provide free quotations for tree stump grinding and stump removal across Stockton-on-Tees, Teesside, County Durham and the surrounding areas.

Can you grind stumps close to fences or patios?

In many cases, yes. We assess each stump individually and use suitable equipment to minimise disruption to surrounding lawns, fencing, patios, driveways and landscaped gardens wherever possible.

How deep do you grind tree stumps?

Most stumps are ground below ground level, allowing the area to be re-turfed, replanted or prepared for new landscaping work. The exact depth depends on the size of the stump and what the area will be used for afterwards.

What happens to the wood chippings after stump grinding?

Stump grinding produces a mixture of wood chippings, soil and fine mulch. We always rake and tidy the area on completion, but it is not normally possible to remove every trace because the grindings become mixed with the surrounding soil during the grinding process. The remaining material will gradually break down naturally over time or can often be reused as mulch elsewhere in the garden if suitable.

Can I plant or lay turf after stump grinding?

Yes. Once the stump has been ground out and the area prepared, it can usually be replanted, re-turfed or incorporated into a new landscaping project.
