Subcontract Stump Grinding for Tree Surgeons

You take the tree down; we grind out the stump. Subcontract stump grinding for tree surgeons across Essex, Hertfordshire and East London, for one-off jobs or ongoing work.

Working with tree surgeons

Stump grinding, handled for you

Plenty of tree surgeons would rather not run a stump grinder, or have jobs where theirs will not do. We come in after the felling and grind out the stumps, so you can hand the customer a finished job.

We can price per job with a fixed price, or work on hourly and day rates where that suits the work better, such as multi-stump jobs or regular days with your team.

Standard grinding depth is approximately 8" (20cm) below ground level, with deeper or other specifications where required and practical. Chips are normally raked back into the hole, or removal can be quoted separately.
