Stump Grinding
Eliminate tripping hazards and reclaim your yard. Commercial-grade grinders reduce stumps to mulch, 300 mm below grade.
About Our Stump Grinding Service
A leftover tree stump is more than an eyesore — it can harbour termites, fungal disease, and regrowth shoots, and it's a trip-hazard liability. Our commercial stump grinders can tackle stumps of any diameter and turn them into mulch in minutes. We grind to at least 300 mm below ground level, leaving the area ready for turf, paving, or replanting.

Stump Grinding FAQs
How deep do you grind stumps?
We grind to a minimum of 300 mm below grade as standard, which is sufficient for turf and most plantings. Deeper grinding is available for hardscaping.
Can you grind stumps in tight spaces or near structures?
Yes. We have compact track-mounted grinders that can access through standard gates and work within 150 mm of structures.
Will the stump regrow after grinding?
Grinding destroys the cambium layer, stopping regrowth in most species. Some eucalypts and willows may reshoot from lateral roots; we can apply a herbicide treatment if required.
