What is Stump Grinding?
Stump grinding is the process of removing a tree stump by mechanically grinding and chipping the wood remnants. At TML Tree Service, we use state-of-the-art stump grinding equipment that can quickly reduce even the toughest stumps to sawdust. The grinder’s sharp, fast-spinning blade shreds the stump into small chips, which can be used as mulch for your garden, offering an eco-friendly option to enhance your soil’s fertility.

Why Remove Tree Stumps?
Stumps can significantly detract from the aesthetic appeal of your landscape. They can be unsightly and can make a well-manicured lawn look neglected. Here are a few reasons why stump removal is essential:
Safety Hazard
Stumps can pose tripping hazards, especially in areas frequented by children and the elderly. They can also interfere with lawn maintenance, creating obstacles for mowing and gardening, potentially leading to injury or damage to equipment.
Pest and Disease Prevention
Old stumps can attract insects and pests, such as termites, ants, and beetles, which might not only harm the stump but can also spread to healthy vegetation around your property. Moreover, stumps can harbor fungi and other diseases, which can affect nearby plants.
Aesthetic and Space
Removing a stump can dramatically improve the look of your landscape, giving it a cleaner and more uniform appearance. Additionally, stump removal clears space, providing you with more room for planting new trees, shrubs, or a garden.
Property Value
A well-maintained landscape, free of old stumps, can increase the curb appeal and overall value of your property.
Our Stump Removal Process
At TML Tree Service, we follow a systematic approach to stump removal that ensures the complete elimination of the stump and roots, where necessary. Here’s how we do it:
Assessment
Our experts begin with a thorough assessment of the stump, considering its size, type of tree, and location on your property. This evaluation helps us determine the best method for removal and any precautions we need to take regarding surrounding structures or plants.
Grinding
Using our top-of-the-line stump grinders, we grind the stump down below ground level. The depth of grinding can vary, typically going down 6 to 12 inches, which is sufficient to cover with topsoil and grass seed.
Cleanup
After grinding, the area is cleared of debris, leaving your landscape clean and tidy. We can also fill the hole with soil and seed it with grass if requested.
Optional Root Chasing
In cases where tree roots spread far from the stump and pose a threat to foundations, pipes, or underground wires, we offer root chasing services. This involves extending the grinding process to trace and grind out the roots to prevent future growth and potential damage.
