Tree stump removal: what is involved?

When faced with a tree stump on your Croydon property, you can choose between two key methods: stump grinding or stump removal. Both options will clear the stump, allowing you to reclaim the area for replanting or other uses. But what does each method involve?

Stump grinding Croydon

Stump grinding is the more common of the two methods. It involves using a special machine to grind away the tree stump until it’s level with the ground. This method is generally less expensive and quicker than stump removal.

On the other hand, stump removal involves extracting the entire stump and its root network from the ground. Although this method can be more labor intensive and take longer, it may be essential for especially large stumps or those situated in challenging locations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some of the top questions we often get about our Croydon stump grinding and stump removal services.

What is the cost of stump grinding in Surrey?

The cost of stump grinding in Surrey will depend on both its size and type, with small stumps typically costing between £100-£200; medium-sized stumps cost between £200 and £400; while larger trees average £400 to £600.

What is stump grinding?

Stump grinding is the process of removing tree stumps by mechanically grinding away the wood and roots until the stump is decreased to a fine wood chip consistency.

What are the advantages of stump grinding?

Stump grinding offers numerous advantages over other removal methods. Stump grinding is more efficient than manual removal, which involves digging out an entire stump from the ground; professional stump grinders simply grind down to soil level instead. Furthermore, stump grinding causes less disruption to lawns, gardens, and landscaping features than removal would. Furthermore, there’s no worry over transporting large stumps or potential damages caused by roots to underground utility lines and structures with stump grinding.

How long will it take to grind a stump?

Depending on its size and location, the process for removal of one tree stump could last anywhere between 15 minutes to 2 hours.

How deep do you need to grind a stump?

Typically, stumps are ground four to six inches below the ground level. Deeper grinding can be requested; however, this may result in higher cost associated with the service.

How does stump grinding work?

A stump grinder is a machine with a durable steel cutting wheel that is designed to fit over the stump and slowly grind the wood away. The wheel spins at an extremely high speed to rapidly cut through the wood, roots, and dirt to remove the stump.

Is stump grinding cheaper than removal?

Stump grinding generally takes less time than removing the stump completely and is less expensive. Stump grinding is also less destructive than removal because it does not leave a big hole in the ground or disturb the surrounding soil.

Does stump grinding get rid of roots?

Grinding is a non-invasive way to remove a stump and does not actively remove the underground roots. When the stump is ground away, the roots will die and decay, eventually becoming part of the soil.

Does stump grinding damage the surrounding soil?

No damage is caused to the surrounding soil by stump grinding as equipment designed to grind down stumps evenly without negatively affecting their environment.

Can you grind a stump yourself?

You can grind the stump yourself but you will need to hire special machinery and understand how to operate it. It also is a potentially dangerous process and if done incorrectly can damage the surrounding garden, that is why it is best to let pros do this type of work.
