The first step in removing your stump is to reduce it’s size. If the stump has not been cut low to the ground, it will need to be flush cut. Flush cutting is hard on the saws chain as often the lower part of the stump can contain dirt, rocks, old barbwire or other materials that ruin our expensive chains.

The next step in removing your stump is the actual grinding of the stump. We will use our Vemeer SC362 to remove the stump and any crowning that has occurred.

Exposed roots can cause trip hazards and damage mowing equipment. These roots can be removed. Getter Gone Stump Removal will not remove roots from live trees as this can kill your tree.

Once the Stump has been reduced to a large pile of grindings, it is recommended that these grindings be removed. This is a job you can do yourself to reduce cost, but it is a big job. Grindings are 80% wood and will decompose over time. If placed back in the hole you will have a depression to deal with in the future.

The last step is restoration. Each stump can take several cubic feet of topsoil. Once the soil is placed to fill the hole, it is seeded and covered with erosion control.
