A stump left in the ground is a trip hazard, an obstacle to mowing and a reason you cannot lay a patio or re-turf over that part of the garden. Digging one out by hand is brutal work and usually damages everything around it.

Grinding is the practical answer. A machine takes the stump down below ground level along with the main surface roots, turning it into chip as it goes. How deep we go depends on what you want to do next: a lawn needs less depth than a patio or a new tree. The chip can be raked back and topped with soil, or removed.

Common questions

Stump Grinding in Kirkby — your questions

How deep do you grind a stump?

Enough for what comes next. Re-turfing needs less depth than paving or replanting a tree in the same position. Tell us the plan and we will grind to suit it.

Can you get the machine to the stump?

Usually. Machines come in different sizes and the smaller ones go through a standard gateway. We check access when quoting rather than turning up and finding out.

What happens to the chip?

It can go back into the hole topped with soil, or be removed. Removal costs a little more but leaves cleaner ground if you are paving over it.

Will the roots keep growing?

Once the stump is ground out the tree cannot regrow. Deeper roots simply decay in place. Some species sucker from roots, and we will tell you if yours is one.

Can I plant a new tree in the same place?

Better to grind deeper and replace the soil, or plant slightly to one side. Old root material breaking down in the ground makes a hard start for a young tree.
