Explore ways to deal with a stump after a tree comes down.
Grinding or removal?
Grinding reduces the stump below the surface; some roots remain. Excavation removes more of the stump and roots and may disturb a larger area. Discuss what suits your plans for the space.
Measure and describe
Provide the approximate stump width, number of stumps, gate width, and location. Mention nearby paving, irrigation, utilities, and raised beds.
Plan the finish
Ask about grinding depth, wood-chip removal, backfill, and restoration. These can be separate from the grinding price.
