Grind It or Remove It

Stumps can get taken out through removal or grinding.

Stump grinders are machines which can make countless small slices into an old tree and its roots.

But in a few difficult instances, long roots have stretched out under a sidewalk or driveway or around underground pipes. They can’t be reached with a grinder.

In order to clear away these long roots, it is usually done with small tools.

These projects are much harder to do and they require more time too.

Stump Grinding or Removal Cost in Westwood or Bel Air

Curious about the cost? Want to get an estimate?

Short jobs are less costly than longer jobs.

Completion time is mainly dependent upon the diameter of the remaining stump and its roots.

The base diameter will be the leading factor, but it might not be the only one.

Most projects are simple to offer an estimate for, but the trickier cases require a little more work.

If a stump elimination requires only a grinder, it will be carried out pretty quickly.

But if it requires additional work, that could really add on to the length of time it requires to get finished.

A freshly fallen tree, particularly if it is still partly in the ground, also requires more time and effort.

Assistance Near Brentwood or Century City

A big portion of the stump extraction projects that get completed in our area are done by very small companies that concentrate exclusively on these jobs.

But some homeowners call full-service landscaping companies who will do the job.

These work crews have the experience to get it done also.

Either way, you will get your circumstances dealt with.

The Standard Steps

Your contractor places their grinder next to your tree and it slowly chips away at the trunk and roots.

Just how long it takes will depend on the dimensions of the trunk and the scope of the exposed roots.

But it always takes a little while to finish. When it’s over, you will see a mound of wood chips.

You might need a little new soil to fill in the area.

Six Questions Most Grinders Want to Know

  • Is it on level ground?
  • Will it be hard to roll a machine next to it?
  • How large is this stump?
  • Is it next to something – like a fence or other structure?
  • Are there long roots that extend under a sidewalk or driveway?
  • Is the tree old or newly fallen or cut?

Each of these questions could factor into what your contractor may charge for your job.

Can a Homeowner Do This?

If you’re interested in trying to do it yourself, a yard equipment rental store in West LA could show you a machine you can rent for the day.

If your situation doesn’t look too difficult, maybe you could give it a try on your own.

However, if that old tree and its roots are on the side of a slope, or it’s really big, you ought to just call for a pro.

If you’re planning to rent a grinder, be cautious.

The cutter area is sharp and it can also launch fragments through the air.

Are There Chemical Options I Could Use Instead?

You can use a chemical which will slowly soften up a fallen tree.

If you aren’t in a big hurry, it could work out fine.

If you have the time to wait for it to work, you can purchase the chemicals and pour them into deep holes which you made into the trunk.

If it all works out well, at some point your old tree will become a bit softer so you can start busting it up with an axe.

It will take a long time to decay.

Before they made tree grinders, farmers would burn up their stumps.

That process works, but it isn’t very practical these days.

Most suburban homeowners aren’t in a position where they can do this.

It just isn’t a reasonable choice for them.
