Leaving a stump behind can lead to a range of issues—from attracting termites and fungi to causing trip hazards or unwanted regrowth. Grinding the stump eliminates these problems, restores a clean landscape, and gives you back usable space in your garden. It’s a smart, long-term solution.
We typically grind 150–300mm below the surface, depending on your intended use for the space. Whether you’re planning to lay turf, plant a garden bed, or re-landscape, we tailor the depth to suit your goals. Deeper grinding is available upon request.
Yes, we can. In many cases, large surface roots can affect the appearance and usability of the space even after the stump is gone. We’ll grind shallow roots surrounding the stump to ensure a smooth, clean finish.
Absolutely. Once the stump is removed, we’ll leave the site neat and ready for turfing, planting, or fresh landscaping. We’re also happy to offer advice on how best to prepare the soil depending on your plans.
While the process generates some noise, it’s quick and controlled. More importantly, we pride ourselves on leaving your property spotless. All debris is either mulched for your garden or taken away—whatever suits you best.
Yes! We’re happy to grind any stump, regardless of who removed the tree. Whether it’s been there for months or years, we can take care of it efficiently.
Stump grinding creates nutrient-rich mulch. You’re welcome to keep it for use in your garden, or we can remove it entirely—it’s completely up to you.
Definitely. Many homes in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs have narrow side access or challenging terrain. That’s why we use compact, portable stump grinders specifically designed for tight or awkward spaces. No job is too tricky.
Every property is different, and so is every stump. Some are small and easy to access, while others are wide, deep, or located in tricky corners that require specialised equipment and careful planning. That’s why we don’t offer flat-rate pricing.
To ensure you get a fair and accurate price for a top-quality result, we provide customised quotes based on the stump’s size, species, surrounding landscape, and ease of access.

If a site inspection is needed, we’ll arrange a time that works for you. We understand how often online forms feel like they disappear into the void—but not with us. We always follow up promptly.

Not when it’s properly ground out. Our process removes the root crown, which eliminates the chance of regrowth. It’s a permanent, hassle-free solution when done by professionals.
