- Eliminates Tripping Hazards – Stumps can be dangerous in gardens, driveways, and public spaces, especially for children and the elderly.

Our Stump Removal & Grinding Process
At South East Tree Care, we use industry-leading techniques and modern equipment to remove stumps efficiently and with minimal disruption to your landscape.
Stump Grinding (The Fast Method)
Our most common method utilizes a powerful, specialized stump grinder that mechanically breaks down the wood into fine mulch. This is a fast, highly effective, non-invasive method suitable for nearly all landscapes and garden areas.
Full Stump & Root Removal
For large-scale projects, construction sites, or instances where all underground roots must be cleared, we offer complete stump and root extraction. This service ensures no subterranean material remains that could affect foundations or future building work.
Eco-Friendly Waste Management
We are committed to sustainability. We responsibly recycle the stump grindings into high-quality mulch for your garden or remove them entirely from the site, depending on your preference.
