Stump Grinding

Once a tree is removed, the stump doesn't have to stay. Our powerful grinders take stumps well below ground level, leaving the area clean, tidy and ready for whatever comes next, whether that's a new lawn, planting, or a fresh building project.

Below Ground Level

We grind stumps down well below the surface so there's no trip hazard and no regrowth: just clean, flat ground.

Minimal Disruption

Our equipment is designed for access and care, keeping disruption to your lawn and surrounding beds to a minimum.

Clean, Tidy Finish

We clear the grindings and leave the site tidy, ready for whatever you have planned next.

Ready for Landscaping

Once ground, the area can be turfed, planted, or built on straight away, with no stump in the way.

Do you do stump grinding near me?

If you're in Surrey or South West London, almost certainly yes. We're based in Woking and travel across the region for stump grinding, from single garden stumps to clearance work after a full tree removal. Recent stump and tree work has taken us to Camberley, Chobham, Oxshott, Leatherhead, Guildford and across into West London.

How much does stump grinding cost?

Every stump is different: size, species, root spread and how easy it is to get the machine to it all make a difference. Tell us where it is and we'll give you a free, no-obligation quote. [CONFIRM: do you want any indicative starting price shown here, or quote-only?]

How long does it take?

Most domestic stumps are ground out in a single visit, often in well under a day. We clear the grindings, tidy up and leave you clean, flat ground you can turf, plant or build on.

Ground below ground level

We grind stumps well below ground level, leaving clear, flat ground you can replant, re-turf or lay a patio over without any obstruction. The grindings can be left on site to backfill the hole, which is often the simplest option, or we can clear them away and take them with us if you prefer a clean finish. Either way, the site is left tidy and there is nothing left for you to deal with. Stump grinding is the tidiest form of tree stump removal, because the stump is ground out in place rather than dug out.

When a stump needs to come out

There are a few common reasons homeowners want a stump gone. The stump is sending up fresh regrowth that keeps coming back no matter how often you cut it. It has become a trip hazard in the lawn or on a path. You want to reclaim the garden space for planting, turfing or a new feature. You are clearing the ground before building work or landscaping. Or the stump is decaying and you are concerned about honey fungus spreading to healthy trees nearby. If any of these sound familiar, grinding it out is usually the cleanest, most lasting solution.

Access and equipment

We use specialist stump grinding equipment designed to get into gardens with restricted or narrow access. [CONFIRM: minimum gate or access width the stump grinder can fit through]. If you are worried about getting a machine through a side gate or down a narrow passage, tell us about the access when you get in touch and we will let you know what is possible.

Tree stump removal questions we are often asked

What is the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?

Both get rid of the stump. Grinding removes it below ground level without the digging and disruption of pulling the whole root plate out, so your lawn and borders stay intact.

Can you grind a stump after a tree has been felled?

Yes, we often grind stumps straight after a tree removal, so the whole job is finished in one visit and you are not left with a stump to deal with separately.

Do you cover my area for stump grinding near me?

We travel across Surrey and South West London, and if your town is not listed we may still cover it, so just ask.
