At a glance

What's included in Stump Services

Stump grinding is the most common choice for homeowners. We grind the stump below the surface so the area can be covered with topsoil and seeded, and the wood chips can be left as mulch or hauled away. Grinding avoids digging up large areas of the yard and works well even for big, old stumps. Stump removal goes further, extracting the stump and major roots. It is the right option when you are building, pouring concrete or planting a new tree in the same spot. Before any work we check for buried utilities, irrigation lines and nearby structures. We can grind a single stump left by a previous tree service, or clear several stumps across a residential or commercial property in one visit. Stump services pair naturally with our tree removal work, so many customers have the stump ground on the same day the tree comes down.

What Freeburg, IL customers say

I learned a lot about the trees. I was very glad to hear my big tree just needed some cables and treatment and was healthier than i thought. OT wants to save the trees and nit just cut down and remove them. Pleasant Clean up was good. Had some complications but will be seeing them in spring for tree treatments and some other work . Thanks. I feel the prices were reasonable and they weren't trying to gouge me!!!! Had 6 trimmed and one cut down.

Very fairly priced for tree work from what I’ve seen. They can safely handle hazardous work. Give them call if you have any questions. They also do a lot with tree disease health management.
