Leftover stumps are a major aesthetic drawback that disrupt your property’s landscape. Beyond being an eyesore, they negatively affect soil grading and act as a magnet for termites and pests near your home. Some types of trees will continue to grow after the tree has been cut down to ground level. Mulberry Trees and Crape Myrtles are notorious for this.
There are other ways to remove a stump from your property. Unfortunately, they aren’t very good options. Renting a stump grinder that can handle the job is almost always more expensive than to have your tree service do it. Some people will try to burn out a stump. This option never works as well as one hopes. And of course, there is always an axe to be swung and while this does make for a great workout. If that’s not what your looking for, then it is best to just to call the professionals.
Stump Mulch Removal
Stump grinding makes a mess. A big one. Stumps are condense pieces of wood in the ground. When they are grinded into chips, they can increase in volume 5 to 10 fold into the form of stump mulch. Stump mulch can be used like regular mulch to help keep weeds down in flower beds. But dirt and chunks of root are mixed in with the chips during the grinding process. So it is not an attractive alternative to regular landscaping mulch.
We don’t like to leave our customers with a mess. So we don’t. We are happy to remove your stump mulch. Also, we can remove the raised bed where the stump was located in. Our job is to get the area to the grade of your surrounding yard.
Our Stump Grinding Equipment
Our stump grinder is an oldie but goodie. We use a modified Carlton 4400-4 stump grinder. The same model from 30 years ago is still being sold today. Just under a rebranded model number. The Carlton 7015.
It utilizes a belt driven system that runs off of a 46 KW Hatz engine. Most grinders being sold today are hydraulically driven at the cutter wheel. That unfortunately leeches much of the power created at the engine.
We use the Greenteeth Reverse S cutter wheel system which is arguably the industries leading stump cutting system.
Our machine rides on 6 tires. However the 2 outer tires are easily removable. That allows us to fit into backyards with smaller gates.
