What Is Stump Grinding?

Unlike stump removal, stump grinding removes tree stumps without digging them out of the ground. A stump grinder—a wheeled machine that utilizes a high-power, rotating blade—rips up tree stumps, cutting them into small pieces of wood.

Why Stump Grinding?

When a tree is removed, a stump remains behind. Stumps can look unsightly, but that’s not the only reason to remove them. Tree stumps make it challenging to build on or landscape an area. Unground stumps may grow new shoots, leach nutrients and moisture from surrounding plants, or transmit disease to other trees. Protruding roots can present a tripping hazard. Furthermore, tree stumps can attract termites, which pose a serious long-term risk to the structural integrity of your home.

Stump grinding is the fastest and most cost-effective way to remove a tree stump, making it an attractive option for any home or business owner. It’s eco-friendly, too: the wood chips can be used as mulch or infill.

Will Trees Grow Back After Stump Grinding?

A commonly asked question about stump grinding is whether a tree will grow back after its stump is ground.

Depending on the root system, it’s possible that new roots may develop over time—but usually, remaining roots, deprived of energy and light, eventually die and decay. Certain trees with extensive root systems may need to be removed entirely, though doing so is more time-consuming and costlier.

How Much Does Stump Grinding Cost?

Stump grinding costs an average of $150 to more than $500. The actual cost depends on different factors, particularly the diameter of the stump, cutting depth, and whether the wood chips are removed or used to infill the remaining hole.
