After a tree is removed, property owners in Weatherford, TX, are often left wondering, “What should I do about the stump?”
Gone are the days when people would attach a chain to their truck bumper and attempt to yank the stump out – an impractical and often damaging method that rarely works. Believe it or not ranchers used to go to the general store and pick up some dynamite to blow stumps out of the ground. Also not the safest option. Others try ineffective DIY techniques like chopping, burning, drilling, or applying chemicals, but these methods take time and usually don’t deliver the desired results.
At Thornton’s Tree Service, we offer a fast and effective solution. With our fleet of five stump grinders in different sizes, we can efficiently remove any unwanted stumps, leaving your property clean and hazard-free. We also provide tree removal, tree pruning, and land clearing services to keep your property in top shape.
Professional Stump Grinding in Weatherford
The Weatherford area team at Thornton’s Tree Service has years of experience and has removed thousands of stumps across the area. Whether you need a single stump removed or a large-scale project completed, we have the expertise and equipment to handle the job efficiently.
How Do We Remove Stumps?
We frequently get asked about the stump removal process. In short, we use professional-grade stump grinders. These machines feature a large rotating wheel with sharp teeth that chip away at the stump until it’s ground down approximately 6-8 inches below ground level. Once the stump is removed, we clean up the excess wood chips. Over time, any remaining chips will break down naturally, allowing you to add topsoil and grass seed or sod to seamlessly blend the area with the rest of your yard.
How Much Does Stump Grinding Cost in Weatherford?
The cost of stump grinding varies depending on several factors, including the number of stumps and whether additional tree services are needed.
Smaller tree service companies often lack the necessary equipment to grind stumps properly, leaving homeowners with an unsightly and potentially hazardous leftover stump. At Thornton’s Tree Service, we ensure complete removal using our high-end stump grinders and tree removal equipment. Because we own all of our machinery, we never have to wait for rental availability – we get the job done quickly and efficiently.
Every tree and stump is different, so we consider multiple factors when providing a quote for stump grinding services.
Factors That Determine Stump Grinding Costs
- Stump Diameter: Larger stumps require more time and equipment to grind down.
- Number of Stumps: If you need multiple stumps removed, we offer bundled pricing for cost savings.
