Stump Grinding

We offer quick, clean, and efficient stump grinding services

State College Lawn Care has experienced and skilled stump grinding technicians who can safely and efficiently remove tree stumps from your yard. We use top-of-the-line equipment, including powerful and precise stump grinders, to ensure that the job is done right. In addition to grinding the stump down to wood chips, we are committed to keeping your yard clean, removing any debris, and leaving your yard looking neat and tidy. We take care to minimize any damage to your lawn and surrounding landscape and are mindful of any underground utilities or other obstacles.


State College Lawn Care's stump removal program includes the removal of the entire tree stump as well as all exposed roots. Stumps are typically ground between four to six inches below the level of the surrounding earth. All excess debris is removed. Depending upon the location, the existing hole is filled with clean topsoil and topped with fresh grass seed and straw.



Why remove stumps


Why should you grind your tree stumps? Tree stumps are ugly and dangerous. They can damage lawn mower blades and are hazards for tripping. Stumps attract insects and mold which can spread to other areas of your yard. Additionally, stumps can damage the root system of healthy trees in your yard. Removing these eyesores not only makes your lawn look beautiful but also protects you, your family, and your lawn.

Our stump removal process has four steps.


Step 1

Step 2

We grind the stump four to six inches below ground level. Why so low? If the tree stump is only removed at the surface level, then the grass will not grow over the spot, leaving an ugly brown area in your lawn. By going several inches below the soil, our professional service makes sure that your lawn can grow over this area.

Step 3

We remove excess material and fill the hole with fresh topsoil.

We top with grass seed and straw. This new area in your lawn is in the early stages of developing a strong root system. With fresh topsoil, new grass seed, and straw, you’ll be certain to see where our work was done and give your lawn the time it needs to recover and grow strong.

Step 4

Identify and estimate the cost of removal. We provide an estimate of our labor and service costs so that there are no surprises, whether you have one or several stumps to remove. We consider the age, size, and type of stump in order to use the best stump removal techniques. We are proud of our commitment to removing stumps without burning or using dangerous chemicals.
