Stump Grinding FAQs
How do I get rid of a tree stump in my yard?
Stump grinding is the most effective method. It removes the stump below ground level, allowing you to reclaim the space without digging up the entire root system.
Will the tree stump grow back after grinding?
In most cases, no. Grinding removes the main structure, preventing regrowth and stopping the tree from sprouting again.
Is stump grinding better than stump removal?
Yes, for most situations. Grinding is faster, less invasive, and doesn’t disturb the surrounding soil as much as full removal.
What can I do with the area after the stump is ground?
You can plant grass, install landscaping, or even plant a new tree, depending on your goals for the space.

Josh Martin came and bid on taking down a massive Bradford Pear tree close to my house. His bid was fair and he was punctual, professional, and knowledgeable. I recommend Josh for all your arbor needs.

Heidi Braunhardt
Josh was recommended to us by our handyman after we had tree damage from a big storm. He was able to come out to our house the same day, and his quote was much more reasonable than one we received from another local company the day before. Josh made thoughtful recommendations that we felt comfortable with and sent over a detailed quote within a few hours. We’re looking forward to getting the work done next week. Thanks, Josh!

Josh and his crew did a wonderful job for my clients! This last ice storm in middle Tennessee took its toll on two of my listings. Josh and his crew got out there immediately and cleaned up the mess as if it were never there. Very professional, cost-effective, and wonderful to deal with. I highly recommend Josh and his team!
