STUMP GRINDING
A remaining stump can interfere with mowing, planting or using the yard. Grinding reduces the stump at its existing location while the requested depth and finish depend on what you plan to do with the area.
Decatur’s tree guidance addresses assessments and critical root zones when other property work is proposed. Planning a tree, wall or drainage project together can reveal overlapping concerns.

A CLEAR SERVICE PLAN
We review access for grinding equipment, nearby hard surfaces and known underground utilities before confirming the scope. Grinding creates chips and does not mean every root is excavated. Discuss chip handling and the intended finish before scheduling.

We arrange the visit after the scope, access and timing are clear.
STRAIGHT ANSWERS
No. Grinding the stump is different from excavating an entire root system. Discuss exposed roots separately.
The estimate should explain whether chips stay in place or are removed. Ask about the finish you want after grinding.
The appropriate follow up depends on the remaining material and your planting plan. Explain the intended use before the grinding scope is set.
