Is that ugly old stump ruining your curb appeal or wrecking your lawn mower? Don’t let a leftover stump become a tripping hazard or a home for termites. JD Tree, LLC offers fast, affordable stump grinding in Greensboro to smooth out your yard so you can reclaim your space.
Removing a tree is only half the battle. If you are left with a stump sticking out of the ground, the job doesn’t feel finished. Stumps are unsightly, hard to mow around, and can even attract unwanted pests to your property.
At JD Tree, LLC, we have the specialized equipment to grind stumps down below the surface, turning that solid wood into harmless mulch. Whether you have a fresh stump from a recent removal or an old, rotting stump that’s been there for years, we make it disappear quickly and affordably.
Many folks think leaving a stump is harmless, but in North Carolina, it can lead to bigger headaches down the road. Here is why we recommend getting rid of it:
It is important to know the difference.
We make the process simple and non-intrusive. We don’t need to tear up your whole yard with an excavator.
No. By grinding the stump and the “root collar” below the soil, we sever the tree’s ability to sprout. The remaining roots underground will die and decompose naturally.
It is much cheaper than removing a whole tree. We base the price on the diameter of the stump (measured across the widest point). We offer free measurements and quotes, so you know the exact price before we start.
We generally recommend planting the new tree at least 3-5 feet away from the old spot. The sawdust in the ground changes the soil acidity, and the old roots can make it hard for a new tree to establish immediately. If you must plant in the exact same spot, let us know so we can chase the roots deeper.
Safety is our priority. If the stump is located near gas, water, or electric lines, we are required to call NC 811 to mark the utilities before we grind. This protects your home and our workers.
