Stump grinder removing a tree stump in a residential yard

Grinding out the Kent stumps left behind by past storms

A lot of Kent yards still have a stump from a 2019 silver maple or a 2014 storm cleanup. We grind below grade, leave the chips or haul them, and get the lawn ready to seed.

Stump grinding for Kent residential lots

Kent has a long backlog of old stumps — some from our own removals, plenty from other crews who never came back. We grind to six inches below grade as standard, deeper on request, and we handle tight backyard access where wider grinders cannot fit. Chips go where you want them. If you want topsoil and seed instead, we will quote that too.

Half the Kent stumps I grind out, the homeowner did not know they had a choice. They thought the stump just stayed. It does not have to.
