Small Stump Grinding -
Made for Residential Access

Not every stump needs a large machine. Our compact stump grinder is suited to smaller and medium sized stumps where access through gates, around gardens or into backyards can make large equipment impractical.

Because stump size, species, hardness and access all affect whether our equipment is suitable, we can assess your stump from photos before confirming the job.

Fits Through Many Standard Gates

Why remove an old tree stump?

Old tree stumps can take up valuable space, get in the way of mowing and gardening, and make it harder to improve or maintain an area of your yard.

Grinding a suitable stump below ground level can make the area easier to manage and give you more options for landscaping, lawn or garden use.

Reclaim Usable Space

Make Mowing & Maintenance Easier

Stumps and exposed roots can make mowing, edging and general garden maintenance more difficult. 

What Does Our Stump Grinding Service Include? 

A practical, small-access stump grinding service for suitable residential and small commercial stumps. 

Stump Grinding Below Ground Level

Suitable stumps are ground down below the surrounding ground level where practical, helping make the area easier to reinstate or landscape. 

Compact Backyard Access

Our small stump grinder can fit through many standard residential gates and access areas where larger machines may be impractical.

Surface Root Grinding

Suitable exposed or surface roots immediately around the stump can also be ground where practical and agreed as part of the job.

Stump Grinding & Mulch

Grinding produces a mixture of wood chips and soil. These grindings can be left on site, used to help fill the resulting hole or removed as agreed when quoting. 

Area Reinstatement

Where appropriate, grindings can be placed back into the stump hole and the immediate area left tidy. Additional soil, turf or landscaping is not included unless specifically arranged. 

Before & After Photos

Photos can be provided to show the stump before grinding and the completed work. 

Is Our Stump Grinder Suitable for Your Job?  

Our compact grinder is designed primarily for smaller and suitable medium-sized stumps. Very large stumps, exceptionally hard timber or jobs requiring larger machinery may not be suitable. 

Send us photos before we quote - ideally showing the whole stump, its approximate diametre, surrounding area and the gate or access route.
