Stump Grinding for Nashville Properties
A stump is a problem you can trip over, mow around and watch rot for years. Grinding it below grade lets you fill the hole, lay sod, plant or build over the spot. In Nashville, the work ranges from small stumps in tight yards in Inglewood and Germantown, where the machine has to fit through a gate, to big hardwood stumps on larger lots in Green Hills, Donelson and Bordeaux.
Older Nashville neighborhoods often have buried lines, old foundations and large root systems around a stump, so the job needs a look first. Call Tennessee 811 before any digging or grinding so buried utilities are marked, and we will go over access, depth and cleanup with you during the estimate.
Stump grinding pairs well with removal. If a tree is coming down anyway, ask us to grind the stump on the same visit.

Questions,
Answered
Don't see your question here? Give us a call and we'll walk you through it.
Can your equipment fit in a narrow Nashville backyard?
Often, yes. Access is one of the first things we check during the estimate, since gates, fences and slopes determine what equipment can reach the stump.
How deep do you grind?
Below grade, deep enough to fill and plant over. Tell us what you plan to put there and we will size the job to match.
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.
