Cost: stump grinding and removal
Compare work by stump, method, agreed depth and final condition. Separate grinding or extraction, machine access, residue removal, fill and reinstatement. A level surface and ground preparation for foundations are different services.
Editorial update on 19 September 2026
Describe each stump
Number stumps and record apparent diameter, projecting parts and surrounding space. Agree depth, area and limits where obstacles occur. A diameter-based rate alone does not describe the scope.
Detail logistics and residues
Separate machinery transport, setup, protection, work, loading and disposal. State whether chips remain, move elsewhere or leave. Agree terms where an unidentified obstacle prevents planned work.
Price reinstatement
Identify fill quantity and type, levelling, lawn repair or border preparation. Distinguish work paired with felling from a later visit. Request a detailed total for several stumps rather than applying an automatic discount.

Frequently asked questions
Is stump work included in felling?
