Remove Problems Below the Surface
Stumps don’t just look rough; they attract pests, trip people up, and make it harder to maintain your property. We grind them down below the surface to stop regrowth and leave a clean, level finish. The team from Chop n Drop Tree Specialists also handles on-site wood chipping, turning branches and offcuts into mulch for easy removal or reuse.
If you’re clearing space for landscaping, construction, or just want a safer yard, we’re ready to help. Call 0413 598 097 to get a free quote.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is stump grinding, and how does it work?
Stump grinding is the process of removing the visible remains of a tree stump by mechanically grinding it down below ground level. A specialised machine chips away at the wood, turning it into mulch. This allows for replanting, landscaping, or laying turf. It’s faster and less invasive than full stump removal, which involves pulling out the roots.
Is stump grinding necessary after tree removal?
While it’s not mandatory, stump grinding is highly recommended. Leftover stumps can become tripping hazards, attract termites or fungi, and sprout new growth. They can also get in the way of construction or lawn care. Grinding the stump helps restore a clear, usable space and prevents future issues.
How deep do you grind a tree stump?
Most stump grinding goes down 100–300mm below the surface, which is deep enough for grass or shallow planting. For construction or replanting a new tree in the same spot, deeper grinding may be required. The depth depends on stump size, tree type, and how the land will be used after grinding.
