Stump Grinding — Lyme & Hanover, NH
Below-grade stump removal so you can reclaim the ground.
After a tree comes down, the stump is rarely the end of the story. Stumps attract termites, limit landscaping, and are a trip hazard. We grind stumps below grade — no excavation, no chemicals, no root ball. What is left can be backfilled with soil and seeded.
Common situations we handle
- Stumps left from a tree removed years ago that keep catching the mower
- Removal just finished — backfilling the hole so the lawn grows back
- Trip and liability concerns in a yard where kids and guests walk
- Prepping a site for a new planting, fence run, or walkway installation
- Cleaning up after a storm took out trees we did not originally cut
What this includes
- Below-grade grinding (6–12 inches below grade typical)
- Root flare exposure and cleanup
- Grindings left on site (can be used as mulch or removed)
- Backfill and grading if restoration is needed
- Stump painted and marked for location reference if needed
Who this is for
Property owners who want the ground back after a removal — to plant, pave, or just make the yard usable again. Often bundled with removal jobs.
