STUMP GRINDING
Professional Stump Grinding in San Diego County
A leftover stump is more than ugly, it’s a trip hazard, a home for termites and fungus, and it can sprout new shoots. We grind stumps several inches below grade so you can replant, re-sod, or pave over them. Quick, affordable, and we rake up the grindings when we’re done.
Why Grind That Stump?
- It’s a trip hazard in the yard
- Attracts termites, ants, and fungus
- Sprouting new shoots or suckers
- In the way of new landscaping or hardscape
- An eyesore hurting your curb appeal
- Left behind from a previous removal
