What We Do
Stump grinding & land management
From a single stubborn stump to a full lot, we grind it below grade and leave the ground ready for whatever comes next.
🌳
Basic Stump Grinding
Ground 7–8″ below the surface — perfect when you just want grass or mulch over the old spot.
🌱
Deep Grinding
Ground 12–15″ deep for replanting, construction, or landscaping where you need the roots gone.
🏡
Multi-Stump & Lot Clearing
Several stumps across a yard or lot in one visit — with a discount for jobs of two or more.
📐
Cleanup & Grading
Optional add-on: we haul away most of the chips and grade the soil level, ready to plant grass.
🌲
Land Management
Clearing and cleanup to reclaim overgrown areas and keep your property open and usable.
