Removal Versus Grinding – What Is the Difference?

Most tree stumps and roots are remedied by a grinding process.

Grinding is the process of using a mobile machine with a sharp blade and methodically cutting up an old tree and roots until it’s cut down to a pile of chips.

But a grinder can’t reach the roots of an old tree which have grown underneath a sidewalk or building and are causing a problem.

Yanking those old roots out is usually a manual process done by one or two people.

This kind of jobs are slower to do and harder to get done.

Cost of Tree Stump Grinding Near Fremont CA

Wondering how much this type of thing costs?

Short jobs are less expensive than longer jobs.

The size and location of the trunk and the roots typically determine how long it will take.

Other factors may be involved though. The position of the old tree may be significant.

For a more complex removal job, cost mostly depends on how difficult it will be to do.

If a stump extraction requires just a grinder, it will be carried out fairly quickly.

But if it requires extra work, that can really add on to the length of time it requires to get completed.

A really old trunk is often the simplest type to work on.

A tree that has recently been chopped down or just fallen down, especially if it’s still partly attached to the roots, are tougher to do.

A Good and Helpful Newark Stump Grinder

Some of these jobs are completed by small local companies that do almost nothing else but take out fallen trees.

But a lot of other jobs are handled by landscaping companies who can address a variety of yard issues or situations.

Both kinds of businesses could help you out.

What You May Expect at Your Yard

Your contractor will have to position their grinder next to your stump.

They start it up and methodically chip away.

Depending on the size of the trunk, the process will take a while to complete.

It’s a gradual process. It doesn’t happen too fast.

Once it’s completely gone, there is commonly a shallow area which needs a friendly filling out with new soil.

Six Questions You Might Be Asked

  • Has it been there for a while or newly fallen or cut?
  • Is there something right next to it – like a house or a fence?
  • Will it be easy to get to?
  • What is the size of the stump?
  • Is it in a level area or a slope?
  • Are there roots which extend under a driveway or sidewalk?

Any of these questions may impact the cost your contractor may charge.

Do You Want to Do the Job?

There are lawn equipment rental companies around the East Bay who will rent you a grinder for the day.

If your project is just a small trunk in a flat area, it’s possible you could do it by yourself.

But if you have a big stump, or it’s along the side of a hill or next to something, you should let a professional take care of that.

Using a grinder isn’t without some risk.

The cutting blade is sharp. It turns forcefully and can throw bits of bark through the air.

Are There Other Options?

There are chemicals that will soften up a dead tree with time. They don’t work too fast though.

You will drill deep holes in the trunk, pour the chemical solution in and then wait.

You can try to bust apart your stump eventually as it eventually rots and gets softer.

You may have to repeat the process more than once.

Burning can work, but you don’t see it done too much anymore unless you live in a rural area.

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

It just isn’t a reasonable choice for them.
