Three easy steps from booking to a clean, stump-free yard.
Use our online booking form or give us a call. Tell us the stump size, location, and your preferred date. We'll confirm within a few hours and lock in your slot with a small deposit.
Our crew arrives with professional-grade grinding equipment. We assess the stump, confirm final pricing on-site, and get straight to work. No mess, no fuss.
We grind the stump down 6–12 inches below grade. Wood chips are left on-site by default — great for mulch! If you'd like the chips removed, just add that option when booking for a small additional fee.
Rotting stumps attract termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and other insects that can spread to your home or healthy trees nearby.
Fungal diseases from a decaying stump can travel through root systems and infect healthy trees in your yard — costing you far more down the line.
Stumps are a leading cause of yard injuries. If someone trips on yours, you could be liable. Grinding eliminates the hazard completely.
Many stumps sprout new shoots every year. These are unsightly and waste nutrients from your soil. Grinding kills the root system and stops regrowth.
A clean yard significantly boosts curb appeal and property value. Buyers notice stumps — removing them is one of the easiest ROI improvements you can make.
Once the stump is gone and the area fills in, you can plant grass, flowers, a garden, or lay a patio — getting full use of your outdoor space again.
The easiest way to remove a tree stump is professional grinding — it's faster, safer, and cheaper than renting equipment or using chemicals. DIY stump removal can take days and still leave roots behind. We get it done right the first time.
Exposed or invasive tree roots damaging your lawn, driveway, or foundation? We offer root grinding and tree root removal services to eliminate surface roots and underground systems cleanly and efficiently.
We price by stump size, but every stump grinds differently — tree species, age, and how long it's been in the ground all affect the time and effort involved. Our average rate is $8–$12 per inch of diameter, sometimes a little less for older or softer stumps. All jobs have a $150 minimum charge. Final cost is always confirmed on-site before we start — no surprises.
Final pricing depends on stump diameter, tree species, depth, root spread, soil conditions, and accessibility. We always provide a firm quote before starting work.

Everything you need to know about stump grinding in southeast Idaho.
The easiest and most cost-effective way to remove a tree stump is professional stump grinding. DIY options like digging, burning, or chemical stump removers (potassium nitrate, Spectracide, Tordon) take days or weeks and rarely eliminate the root system. Renting a stump grinder is physically demanding and can be dangerous without experience. Professional grinding takes under an hour and leaves nothing behind.
Yes! In addition to stump grinding, we offer tree root removal and root grinding services. Whether you have surface roots damaging your lawn, invasive roots cracking your driveway or foundation, or a root system left behind after a tree was removed — we can grind them down and eliminate the problem. Call us for a free estimate on root removal in southeast Idaho.
Our average rate is $8–$12 per inch of diameter, sometimes a little less for older or softer stumps. All jobs have a $150 minimum charge. A typical medium stump (12–24 inches) runs $175–$275 depending on species and condition. Extra large stumps (36+ inches) are quoted on-site. For smaller jobs in outlying areas, a modest travel fee may apply — we'll always tell you upfront. Multiple stumps on the same visit get a discounted rate.
For most homeowners, yes. Chemical stump removers like potassium nitrate, Spectracide, or Tordon can take 4–12 weeks to work and require multiple applications. They also leave the stump material in the ground and can harm nearby plants. Professional stump grinding eliminates the stump in one visit, grinds 6–12 inches below grade, and lets you replant the area immediately. It's faster, cleaner, and more reliable.
Most single-stump residential jobs take 30 minutes to 1 hour. Larger stumps or multiple stumps may take 2–3 hours. Commercial lot clearances are quoted individually. We include cleanup in every job, so your yard is ready when we leave.
We typically grind 6 to 12 inches below ground level — deep enough to plant grass, lay sod, or put in landscaping directly over the area. If you need deeper grinding (for a concrete pour or raised planting bed), just let us know and we'll accommodate.
Wood chips are left on-site by default after grinding — many customers love them as free mulch for garden beds or landscaping. If you'd prefer the chips removed, we offer chip removal as an add-on for an additional fee. Just select that option when booking or let us know when we arrive and we'll give you a quick quote on the spot.
Yes! Once the stump is ground down and the chips are removed, you can fill the hole with topsoil and plant grass seed, lay sod, or start a garden. We recommend waiting a few weeks before planting to let the remaining root material begin breaking down naturally.
