Grind a stump below turf level so the area can be reseeded, paved or planted straight over.
Whether you'd call it stump removal or stump grinding, the result is the same: the stump comes out below soil level so the area can be reseeded, paved or planted straight over. Left in the ground, an old stump attracts honey fungus and pests, and some species keep throwing up suckers for years. We can arrange stump grinding for stumps of any size across Chesterfield and the surrounding villages, including ones another contractor left behind.
