The Dangers of DIY
While the DIY route may seem like the best option to save time and money, it’s anything but. Stump grinding presents unique challenges that make it less than ideal if you don’t have any previous experience. Operating a stump grinder requires precision and expertise due to its large size and powerful rotating blade. Using this machine comes with significant safety risks to both you and others in the vicinity that shouldn’t be overlooked.
While a stump grinder isn’t your sole DIY option, most other methods aren’t great alternatives. Each method comes with its own set of drawbacks. You can accelerate decomposition with chemical solutions or by applying salt, but it’s time-consuming and may harm surrounding plants or attract pests. Similarly, attempting to burn the stump is not recommended due to the risk of wildfires or personal injury.
Working with professional stump grinders is the safest and most effective solution. Not only does it mitigate the risk of injury, but it also proves to be the most cost-efficient option when factoring in potential hazards and labor-intensive efforts. At Progressive Lawn and Landscaping, we specialize in safe and efficient stump removal, ensuring the job is done right the first time.

How We Remove Your Leftover Tree Stumps
At Progressive Lawn and Landscaping, our team has years of experience removing all sizes and types of trees. There is no job we can’t handle with our removal method. Here is what you can expect from our stump grinding services in Dunedin.
Start with a Consultation
Before we begin the stump grinding process, we meet you at the property to survey the land. We make sure to mark any utility lines and the number of stumps and trees you need to be removed. Once we have an understanding of your property, we can give you an estimate of our services.
Our Stump Grinding Process
After your initial consultation, we will come out to take care of your tree stumps. You can count on our experienced technicians to show up on time with our top-of-the-line equipment and safety gear. Here is what you can expect next for our stump grinding services.
First, we secure the area by removing all obstacles and debris. If there are any stray rocks or twigs, they can get caught in the wheel and potentially fly up, hurting the operator or someone else nearby.
Once the area is clear, we use a chainsaw to level the stump. The closer the stump is to the ground, the faster and easier it will be for us to fully remove it with the stump grinder.
After the stump is leveled, we begin stump grinding. The stump grinder is a special machine with a strong rotating blade. One of our experts will lower this blade into the tree stump. Once it's secure in the stump, they will move it side-to-side and back and forth, turning the stump into mulch.
We continue grinding the stump down until it is below ground level. Generally, we grind it down until it’s four to sixteen inches below the surface. However, the depth it’s ground to will depend on its size.
Once the stump grinding is complete, we clean the area. We rather till the leftover wood pieces into the soil or use them as mulch in your garden.
After the area is clean, we fill the leftover hole with soil and add sod or seed over it. With the stump grinding complete, you now have a smooth foundation to grow something new.
What Happens to the Stump After It’s Gone
With the stump gone, you’ll see the health of your yard start to return. Without the stump, the tree roots no longer have access to nutrients. Over time, the roots will die out and return their nutrients to the soil and surrounding plants. You can enjoy this cleared area in your yard to plant something new or add a new structural feature to your outdoor space. The possibilities are endless!
