Stump Grinding in Murfreesboro, TN
Fast, thorough stump grinding that clears the way for a clean, usable yard.
Stump Grinding for Murfreesboro Properties
A stump left behind after a removal is more than an eyesore. It holds moisture, attracts insects and fungus, and makes mowing, fencing and landscaping harder. In Murfreesboro we grind stumps below grade so you can fill the spot with soil and seed, lay sod, or build over it, whether the tree stood in a small yard near MTSU or on a large lot out toward Siegel and Blackman.
Rutherford County's limestone soil matters here. Shallow bedrock and rocky ground can make stump work slower than it looks, and wide, shallow root flares often have to be ground out as well as the stump itself. We size the job after seeing the stump, the roots and the access, and we clean up the chips so the area is usable when we leave.
Stump grinding pairs well with tree removal. If a tree is coming down anyway, ask about having the stump taken out on the same visit.

Questions,
Answered
Don't see your question here? Give us a call and we'll walk you through it.
How deep do you grind a stump in Murfreesboro?
We grind below grade so the area can be filled and planted. Depth depends on the stump and what you plan to do with the space, so tell us your goal when you call.
What happens to the wood chips?
Chips are cleaned up as part of the job. If you would like to keep them for mulch or fill, let us know when you request your estimate.
How far below the surface do you grind?
We grind stumps below grade, not just flush with the ground, so you can plant, seed, or landscape right over the spot afterward.
What happens to the wood chips?
We can leave the mulch for you to use around your yard, or haul it off, whichever you'd rather have.
Do you remove the roots too?
We grind down the visible root flare and surface roots near the stump. Deeper roots stay in the ground - they break down naturally over time and won't send up new sprouts once the stump itself is gone.
Can I plant something right where the stump was?
Yes, once we've backfilled the hole. Give the ground a little time to settle first if you're planting something with real roots.
