Stump grinding in GTA from $150. Ground 10" below grade, chips hauled away. Same-week availability in North York, Vaughan, Markham & Scarborough.
We typically grind stumps 6-12 inches below the soil surface, depending on stump size and your plans for the area. If you want to <a href="/planting-mulching-services" class="text-primary hover:underline">plant a new tree</a> or lay sod, we go deeper (10-12 inches). For general lawn purposes, 6-8 inches is sufficient. We'll discuss your needs during the quote.
The grinding process creates a pile of wood chips mixed with soil. By default, we rake these chips level with the surrounding ground—they'll decompose over time and enrich the soil. If you prefer, we can haul the chips away for an additional fee, or you can use them as mulch in your <a href="/garden-maintenance-services" class="text-primary hover:underline">garden beds</a>.
Yes, we have equipment that can access most residential spaces across North York, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, and Scarborough. Our stump grinder fits through standard 36-inch gates. For very tight spaces or stumps close to buildings, fences, or other structures, we'll assess during the quote and let you know the best approach.
We take precautions to minimize lawn damage. We use plywood pathways to protect grass from equipment. Some minor turf damage around the immediate stump area is normal but easily repaired. We rake and level everything when finished.
