Clean, Effective Stump Grinding for Any Property

Leftover stumps can be more than just an eyesore. They create tripping hazards, attract pests, and make mowing or landscaping difficult. Our stump grinding service removes stumps below ground level, restoring the look and usability of your yard without damaging surrounding areas.

At Rock Creek Tree, we use professional-grade stump grinders designed to handle stumps of all sizes, even in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. Our team works carefully around existing grass, walkways, and structures to ensure a clean finish every time.

When Stump Grinding Makes Sense

Stump grinding is recommended in many common situations, including:

You want to eliminate tripping or safety hazards
The stump is attracting insects or pests
You’re planning new landscaping or replanting
The stump makes mowing or yard maintenance difficult
You want to improve curb appeal
A tree was recently removed and the stump was left behind

Grinding the stump down prevents regrowth and allows the area to blend naturally back into your yard.

Here are some common questions we get from homeowners near you.

Still have a question?

Reach out with any questions about your tree removal needs.

How deep do you grind the stump?

We typically grind stumps 6–12 inches below ground level, which is ideal for reseeding grass or landscaping.

Will stump grinding damage my yard?

No. Our equipment is designed to minimize disruption, and we take care to protect surrounding grass and structures.

Are you licensed and insured?

Absolutely. We are fully licensed and insured, and our work is performed by trained professionals who follow strict safety standards on every job.

Do you remove the wood chips?

Yes. We remove all debris unless you’d like to keep the mulch for your yard.

Can roots be removed too?

Stump grinding removes the main stump and surface roots. Large underground roots usually decompose naturally over time.
