Stump grinding on Tallmadge residential lots
Tallmadge probably has the highest residential stump count of any city we work in, mostly from years of silver maple removals where the stump never got finished. We grind below grade efficiently, handle multiple stumps per visit, and price the work as a job rather than per stump when the volume is there. Chips can be left as mulch, hauled away, or replaced with topsoil.
“In Tallmadge if you have one stump there is usually a second one in the back yard. Handling them together brings the cost per stump way down.”

Stump grinding Tallmadge's old maple stumps.
Many Tallmadge yards have stumps left from earlier maple removals. Big maple stumps and their surface roots take up a lot of yard until they're ground out.
Big stumps, big roots
Silver maples have large, shallow root systems, and their stumps leave thick surface roots spreading across the lawn. We grind the stump to about six inches below grade and grind out the major surface roots near it, so the area can be leveled and seeded or replanted.
Old maple stumps are often partly decayed, which makes them grind faster. Fresh ones take longer. Either way, we size the grinder to the access, protect the lawn on the way in and clean up afterward.
Planting near the old stump
If you want to plant a new tree where the old maple stood, it's usually better to plant a few feet away from the old stump than directly in it. The ground where a big stump was ground is full of chips and decaying roots for several years, and a new tree does better in undisturbed soil next to it.
Chips can be kept as mulch for beds or hauled away, with the hole backfilled with topsoil. Send a photo to (330) 221-1617 and Tyler can usually quote from it.

Common questions
Stump Grinding FAQs for Tallmadge
Have a question not answered here? Call (330) 221-1617.
Can you grind out the maple roots in my lawn?
We grind the major surface roots near the stump so the area can be leveled. Roots farther away decay on their own over time.
Can I plant a new tree right where the stump was?
It's better to plant a few feet away, in undisturbed soil. The old stump area stays full of chips and decaying roots for years.
How long does it take to grind a big maple stump?
Usually an hour or two, depending on size and condition. Partly decayed stumps grind faster.
