Stump Grinding Services in Tauranga
Machine size and access
Grinders range from compact machines that fit through narrow gates to larger units for big stumps. The access route decides which machine can be used.
Surface roots
Roots running out from the stump can be ground along with it if they affect mowing or paving. Mention them when requesting a quote.
Multiple stumps and old stumps
Several stumps on one property can be ground in a single visit. Old and partly decayed stumps are usually straightforward to remove.
Checking for underground services
Water, power and drainage lines near the stump need to be identified first. Grinding stops short of any known services.
Grindings and backfill
The mix of chips and soil can be left in the hole, spread as mulch or removed. Topsoil can be added if you plan to sow lawn straight away.
