Stump grinding is the typical method to remove a tree stump in your landscape.  The grinding process, using a piece of equipment called a stump grinder, grinds the tree stump below the surface of the ground.  Usually, tree stump grinders grind a stump down to 10 to 12 inches below the ground so that you can re-plant grass sod, seed, or other landscape material.  Alternatively, stump removal is a process of digging the tree stump and surface roots entirely out of the ground.  Generally speaking, tree stump removal is not necessary unless construction work is required that necessitates the stump to be removed completely.  Tree stump grinding is what 95% of our customers opt for.
