A tree removal isn't really finished while the stump is still sitting in the yard. Old stumps get in the way of mowing, send up stubborn sprouts, and slowly rot into a home for carpenter ants and termites. They also take up the exact spot where many Birmingham homeowners want to plant a replacement tree.
ACE grinds stumps below grade with equipment sized for the job, from compact machines that fit through a backyard gate in Homewood or Vestavia to larger grinders for big oak and poplar stumps. We mark utilities before we start and work around irrigation, edging, and nearby beds so the grinding stays where it belongs.
You can keep the grindings as mulch or have us clean them up and leave the area ready for topsoil and seed. If you'd like a new tree in the same area, our ISA Certified Arborist can recommend how far to offset the new planting from the old root zone so it gets a healthy start.
Is there an old stump in your yard that you've been mowing around for years? #StumpGrinding #BirminghamAL
