Hawaii Tree Service eliminates stumps one of two ways: grinding and physical removal bu digging it up. In grinding a stump, we utilize a stump grinder to grind the stump below the surface of the soil – getting rid of its appearance entirely. In stump removal, we use a small backhoe to dig up the stump and roots. Normally, only commercial developments remove stumps where they may interfere with some facet of building or development.  Removing a stump is costly than grinding and results in some damage to the surrounding area due to the excavation process.  

Stump grinding is the conventional way ninety percent of our client go when they choose to remove the appearance of a stump after tree removal. In these circumstances, we use one of our Vermeer stump grinders to grind the stump down to about a foot beneath the ground – down significantly enough to get rid of its appearance together with permitting grass or other plantings to be grown above it.

Each and every stump can differ in regards to its challenge to grind. This is actually due to the fact that different tree varieties, as well as the age of the stump itself, governs how challenging the stump will be to ground. A new hardwood stump are normally the most challenging to grind. Much older conifers are the fastest stumps to grind. The age of the stump may additionally determine difficulty as more recent stumps are even more resistant to grinding than older ones. And, certainly, the absolute size of the stump will certainly also be a variable. However, no matter the variety and age of the stump, Hawaii Tree Service can eliminate any type of stump with our state-of-the-art stump grinders.
