This is an excellent crew! When they arrive on the scene, they greeted us, told us what to expect, and went straight to work. Their prices were very reasonable, and they did their best to leave no evidence that they were ever there.
My wife and I have used them twice, once at our home, and once at our business, and we were very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend Jared and his crew for any tree removal, trimming, stump grinding, etc. Very professional!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Stump grinding uses a powerful machine with a rotating blade to grind the stump and some surrounding roots down 4–8 inches below ground. Typically, one stump takes 15 minutes to two hours, depending on its size and location
-
Grinding removes an eyesore, eliminates trip hazards, prevents mower damage, stops new sprouts, reduces pest and disease risks, and frees up space for new landscaping
-
The grinder removes the stump and nearby roots down to about 6–8 inches below grade. Larger roots remain and slowly decompose over time
-
Wood chips are created during grinding. You can choose to spread them as mulch, use them to fill the hole, or have us haul them away
-
Stump grinding is quicker, more affordable, and less invasive than full stump removal. Instead of digging up the entire root system—which can damage your yard—we grind the stump down to mulch and let the roots naturally break down underground. It’s a cleaner process and often the best choice for both residential and commercial properties in Kalamazoo.
-
Yes, you can! We grind stumps 6 to 8 inches below ground level, which is typically deep enough to replant grass, install sod, or even plant a new tree. If you plan to replant in the same exact spot, let us know ahead of time and we’ll make sure to grind the stump deeper to give you a clean slate.
