Stump Grinding in Atlanta
Stumps are trip hazards, attract insects, and get in the way of the mower. Grinding turns the stump into mulch below the surface so you can use the space again.
What stump grinding involves
- Locating utilities before grinding
- Grinding several inches below grade
- Grinding surface roots on request
- Backfilling or leaving grindings as mulch
Signs you need it
- Old stumps in the lawn
- Suckers sprouting from a stump
- Termites or ants around a stump
What to expect
Most stumps take under an hour. Price depends mainly on diameter and access.
Frequently asked questions
How deep do you grind?
Typically 4 to 8 inches below grade, deeper when you plan to replant in the same spot.
What is the difference between grinding and stump removal?
Grinding leaves the deep roots to decay. Full stump removal pulls out the root ball, which is more disruptive but clears the area completely.
