Affordable Inglewood Tree Stump Grinding Company
When you have an old dead or fallen tree that needs some work, you can get somebody to stop by and take care of it.

The scope of your job will not matter. All jobs, of any size, get worked on carefully and completely.
Removal or Grinding – Is There a Difference?
Cut or fallen trees with problem roots sometimes need to be pulled out, but most are just ground up where they stand.
A professional stump grinding machine deliberately chews into the remains of an old tree until it has reduced it to a considerable mound of wood chips.
But in some bad situations, long roots have extended under a sidewalk or driveway or around below ground pipes. They can’t be reached with a grinder.
These problem roots have to come out. Much of the work has to be done in a place where a big machine can’t get to, so it ends up being a primarily manual operation.
Taking those roots taken out takes longer and it’s a harder job to do.
The Cost to Remove a Tree Stump Near Inglewood
Not sure about the cost? Want to know more?
The primary price component is how long it takes.
Projects that take a full day will be more than ones taking two hours.
Project time is mostly dependent upon the diameter of the stump and its biggest roots.
Size is not always the sole factor. Sometimes where it sits is just as important.
In a few lawns, the old dead or fallen tree is in a tough location, making it more difficult to work on.
Average sized trees that aren’t interfering with anything are generally handled with only a grinder.
But old trees with complex root systems require a more complicated strategy.
The age of the fallen tree might matter too. A really old trunk is easier to cut up than a tree which just fell.
If your tree is still partly in the ground, that makes it even harder.
An Experienced South LA Stump Grinder Can Help
A substantial portion of the stump elimination projects that get done in our area are performed by very small companies that concentrate almost exclusively on these jobs.
And the other jobs are completed by lawn services who do a variety of other landscaping work too.
It will get handled whichever way you decide to go.
What’s This Procedure Like?
Your expert or crew member has to locate their machine next to the stump you want taken out.
They start it up and use it to little by little chip away at the leftover trunk and the top roots.
It takes a while to grind the trunk and roots up. It’s a gradual process.
When your specialist is finished, you’ll see a load of wood chips where your tree used to stand.
The procedure generally progresses along okay, but sometimes problems arise.
Details Many Landscapers Like to Know
- Has it been there for a while or newly fallen?
- Is there something up against it – like a fence or other structure?
- Will it be hard to roll a machine next to it?
- What is the diameter of the stump?
- Is the ground around it level?
- Are there some roots that extend under a walkway or driveway?
Any of these questions might impact the price your contractor may charge.
Could I Do It By Myself?
If you’re thinking about trying to do it yourself, there should be an outdoor equipment rental shop around you which will rent you a machine for the day.
Some ambitious homeowners may try to do it by themselves if their old tree wasn’t very big and it would be not hard to move a rental grinder up next to it.
But a major-sized tree, or one on a slope, ought to be left to someone who has the training and experience to do it.
If you opt to rent a grinder – be careful. Figure out how it works and move slow.
Don’t rush and don’t attempt anything you don’t feel comfortable with.
Are There Other Options?
You can try a chemical which can slowly soften up a fallen tree.
If you aren’t in a big hurry, it might work out fine.
It requires some patience, the proper liquids and a very long drill bit to make the holes to pour the liquids in.
If it all works well, someday that old tree will become a bit softer until you can begin splitting it up with your axe.
It takes a while to rot.
If you live far out on your own, you could still try burning it up.
It will take a while and you need to be careful with it.
These days, property owners in suburbs such as Westchester don’t have much of an interest in taking their old tree and having it smolder for a day or so.
