Stump Grinding in Albany
Stump grinding removes the visible stump and the top of the root system, leaving the area level and ready for replanting or planting grass. The time it takes depends on the stump's size, wood type, and root spread, but most residential stumps are ground in under an hour.

Where we do it
What stump grinding involves
Stump grinding is the process of using a machine with a rotating cutting disc to chip away the stump and the upper portion of the roots below ground level. The grinder is positioned over the stump, and the disc is lowered and swung side to side, reducing the wood to small chips. The resulting hole is filled with the chips and soil, leaving a level surface. The main root crown is removed, but lateral roots remain in the ground, which is fine for most purposes.
You need stump grinding when a tree has been cut down and you want to use the area for planting, mowing, or simply to remove a tripping hazard. Stumps can also attract pests like termites and carpenter ants, and they can make mowing difficult. Grinding is the standard way to eliminate the visible stump without the expense and disruption of full stump removal, which involves digging out the entire root ball.
