Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?
Stump grinding cuts the stump down below ground level using a machine, leaving the root system in place. Full stump removal digs out the entire root ball, which is more invasive and typically more expensive.
Will stump grinding kill the tree's roots so it doesn't regrow?
Grinding eliminates the stump itself and prevents most regrowth, but some species with aggressive root systems may still send up sprouts. If that's a concern, ask about applying a treatment to the ground roots after grinding.
How big of a stump can be ground down in one visit?
Most professional stump grinders can handle stumps of almost any size, though very large stumps may take more time and cost more. Sharing the stump's approximate diameter when you call helps the provider give you an accurate quote.
Can I plant grass or a new tree where the stump was ground?
Yes, once the wood chips are removed and the area is filled with soil, you can seed grass or plant again. It's best to wait a few weeks and make sure the chips and soil have settled before planting.
Does stump grinding damage surrounding grass or landscaping?
A skilled operator minimizes damage, but some disturbance to nearby turf and mulch is normal. Discussing the area around the stump during the estimate helps the crew plan to protect what's close by.
Do I need a permit to have a stump ground in Montgomery, AL?
Stump grinding on private residential property in Montgomery generally doesn't require a permit. However, if the tree was in a protected zone or on a corner lot, it's worth checking with the city before work begins.
