Why remove a tree stump?

An old tree stump can take up valuable garden space, make mowing difficult and get in the way of landscaping. Whether you’re tidying up after tree removal or dealing with a stump that’s been there for years, grinding can help you reclaim the area.

TreeWorks can grind your stump as part of a tree removal job or arrange the service separately.

Planning to replant or create a garden bed? Let us know before we start so we can discuss the depth of grinding and any additional root removal needed.

Ready to reclaim your garden?

Stump grinding can help when an unwanted stump is:

Taking up space in your garden

Getting in the way of mowing

Creating a trip hazard

Producing unwanted new shoots

Blocking your landscaping plans

How stump grinding works

Assess the stump

We check the stump’s size, location and access, and discuss what you want to do with the area.

Quote and plan

We provide a quote based on the work required, including the number of stumps and any access considerations.

Grind the stump

We use specialist equipment to grind the stump below ground level, to the depth agreed for your project.

Manage the grindings

The process produces wood chips and soil. We can discuss leaving this material on site or arranging removal.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Treeworks has provided arborist services at my residence for over 10 years. Recently Treeworks assisted in securing Government approval for the removal of our old and very large brittle gum, which without warning had dropped a main limb across our, and our neighbours driveways, missing our son’s car by inches. Over three days the Treeworks team did a great job in taking the tree down and cleaning up afterwards, and I must say that we and our neighbours feel much safer for this.

I wasn't around for the quote visit but my husband said it was all very simple and straightforward. The actual work of removing 5 large branches/limbs from a gum tree was completed by a team of 3. These guys were punctual, friendly and professional, and very hardworking/efficient. They deserve a big Christmas bonus this year!  I am very happy to recommend TreeWorks and would definitely use them again in future.

Everything went very smoothly, from the tree inspection to the tree cutting and stump grinding. Was very happy with all the work done and all the workmen so very professional. The site was left clean. The price was reasonable for such a big project. Happy to recommend this company

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I asked online for an inspection and quote and "Ed" was here almost before I pressed "Send". He quickly assessed our issues, asked us what result we were after and advised us on what we needed to do. He shared what seemed to us to be a lot of knowledge and told us to take some small steps over a couple of years and then contact Treeworks again. We will.

No quote. No charge. I must be dreaming.

Thanks Ed!

The guys got on with the job without complaint and did not stop, except for a quick coffee break. Work and clean up was top class. Would highly recommend Treeworks!

Planning to replant or landscape?

Let us know if you want to plant another tree, add shrubs or create a flower bed where the stump currently sits.

Stump grinding breaks down the stump, but it does not automatically remove the entire root system. Depending on your plans, additional grinding or root removal may be needed.

Discussing this beforehand helps us recommend the right approach and prepare the area for its next use.

What does stump grinding cost?

The minimum cost of stump grinding is $300 plus GST. Your quote will depend on:

The size of the stump
The number of stumps
Access for the stump grinder
The depth of grinding required
Whether you want the grindings removed

Some stumps take longer to grind than others. Contact us for a quote based on your property and the work required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you grind a stump if the tree was removed some time ago?

Yes. TreeWorks can grind existing stumps, even if the tree was removed previously. We can also include stump grinding when arranging tree removal.

Does stump grinding remove all the roots?

No. Stump grinding breaks down the stump and can address nearby roots within the agreed work area, but roots extending further into the garden may remain. If roots are affecting your landscaping plans, let us know so we can assess what’s needed.

Can I plant another tree in the same spot?

This depends on the remaining roots, the space available and the preparation required. Tell us what you intend to plant so we can discuss the grinding depth and whether additional root removal is needed.

What happens to the wood chips?

Stump grinding produces a mixture of wood chips and soil. We can discuss leaving the grindings on site for your use or including removal in your quote.

Can I remove a tree stump myself?

DIY removal can be difficult, particularly for large stumps or established roots. A professional stump grinding service can assess access and use specialist equipment to carry out the work.
