Stump Grinding Frequently Asked Questions
Youngstown Tree Service typically gets queries about stump grinding from homeowners in the area. For this reason, we thought we'd share some of the answers to your frequently asked question about our stump grinding service.
Why should I grind the stump after the tree has been cut down?
There are a number of reasons why removing the stump is essential, including aesthetics, health, and safety. Stumps are a nuisance and attract a multitude of pests and insects that can invade your home.
Can you remove the appearance of the whole stump?
Yes, with the aid of our heavy-duty equipment. In most cases, we can grind the stump up to 16 inches beneath the soil, or we can go deeper upon request.
Can you grind the surface roots as well?
Yes. We can grind the stump 6 inches below the ground to eliminate all hazards that can result in accidents.
How deep can you mill the stump?
In general, we grind the stump 16 inches below the ground. This depth can allow sod and grass planting in the area where the stump used to be. We can also grind the stump 4 inches below the ground. This is less expensive than the other one, but this will not allow you to replant the area with grass. We typically recommend this for stumps in the forests or sidelines of the lawn.
Can I plant a new tree where the stump used to stand?
Yes. We can grind the entire stump and make sure nothing is left so that you can plant new trees in the same area.
How much time do you need to grind a stump?
This is generally dependent on the size of the stump. Larger stumps take more time to grind than smaller ones. We can finish a small stump in as little as 15 minutes, or it can go up to over 2 hours for larger ones. Our top-of-the-line grinder can efficiently get rid of the sight of the stump.
How much can stump grinding cost?
The rule of thumb is $5 per inch of diameter. Aside from that, other factors drive the cost up or down. The factors include the size, age, and species of the stump.
Do you offer multiple stump discounts?
Yes, we do. So it will be practical if you have us remove several stumps at once.
What will happen to the area after you're finished?
There will be a hole in the area once the stump has been removed. Rest assured that we will cover the site with dirt and chips, so you don't have to worry about a hazardous hole on your property.
Will there be any damage to my property?
We are known to be very meticulous in our work, so we can make sure that no damage will be incurred to your lawn or landscape. We will have large plastic mats and plywood to protect the vulnerable areas on your property.
Do you take care of the wood chips and other debris from stump grinding?
That is one of our additional services. We can have our wood chippers in and place the chips and other debris in it.
