Stumps ground down, yard cleaned up

Every tree Crown & Root Tree Service takes down comes with stump grinding. We also grind old stumps from trees someone else removed, whether it is one stump in the front yard or a row of them along a fence.

A stump grinder chews the stump down below the grass line. What's left is a pile of grindings and a shallow hole you can fill, seed or sod. The roots stay in the ground and break down on their own over time.

Why people get stumps ground

  • You can mow straight over the spot instead of around it
  • No more tripping over it or catching it with the mower blade
  • New sprouts coming up from an old stump stop being a problem
  • The spot can go back to grass, a bed or a patio

Stump grinding FAQ

How much does stump grinding cost in Tulsa?

It depends on how wide the stump is, how many there are and how easy they are to reach. Stumps are one of the easier things to price from a picture. Put a shoe or a tape measure next to it, send it when we call you back, and we can usually give you a number fast. The firm price comes before we start.

Is stump grinding included when you take a tree down?

Yes. Every removal we do comes with stump grinding. It is not an extra line on the bill.

Can you grind a stump from a tree someone else took down?

Yes. Old stumps, a few stumps across a yard, stumps left behind after a lot was cleared. Send us a photo or tell us how many and how big, and we will give you a price.

What is the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?

Grinding chews the stump down below the grass line and leaves the roots in the ground to rot away on their own. Full removal digs out the whole root ball, which is a much bigger hole and a much bigger job. For most yards, grinding is all you need to mow over it, lay sod or plant again nearby.

Is stump grinding worth it, or can I just leave the stump?

You can leave it, but an old stump rots slowly, can keep sending up sprouts, draws termites and other bugs, and is one more thing to trip over or hit with the mower. Stump grinding takes it below the grass so you can mow, lay sod or plant again. If you want the yard to look finished, it is worth it. Send a photo when we call you back and we can usually price it fast.

Should I just rent a grinder and do it myself?

You can, but rental grinders are heavy, they throw chips and rocks, and a buried cable or gas line can be right under the stump. Whoever grinds, call 811 first so buried lines get marked. For one small stump DIY can work. For big stumps or several of them, it usually makes more sense to have us do it.

What happens to the hole and the grindings?

The grindings are what is left of the stump. Many people use them to fill the hole and top it with soil. Tell us at the estimate how you want it left, and we clean up the work area before we go.

Can I plant a new tree in the same spot?

It is better to plant a little off to the side, because the old roots are still breaking down underneath. We plant trees too, so we can help you pick the spot and the tree.
