Stump Grinding in Cambridge & Saffron Walden

Why remove a tree stump?

Leaving a stump in place can lead to a number of issues over time, including:

• Trip hazards in gardens or public-facing areas
• Obstruction to landscaping or construction work
• Regrowth from certain species
• Attraction of pests or fungal decay

Our stump grinding service

We use specialist equipment to grind stumps down below ground level, allowing the area to be reused for turfing, planting or hard landscaping. Our service includes:

• Grinding the stump to an appropriate depth
• Dealing with surface roots where necessary
• Leaving the area ready for reinstatement

Aftercare and reuse of arisings

The grinding process produces woodchip, which can be:

• Removed from site
• Left in place for natural settling
• Reused elsewhere in the garden

Working in residential and restricted spaces

We regularly carry out stump grinding in:

• Domestic gardens
• Areas with limited access
• Sites close to buildings, fences or hard surfaces

Combined with tree removal

Stump grinding is often carried out following tree removal, but we are equally able to deal with existing stumps left from previous works. If required, we can provide a complete service from removal through to stump treatment.
