The tree stump removal process involves removing a tree or large shrub at ground level where a small proportion of the trunk or stem remains in the ground. This is known as the “Stump”. A stump can remain in the ground without causing any harm but if you want to replant or lay more lawn, add a new building or fence, you may want to remove the stump.

The best way to dig out is by using a stump grinder machine which has a large cutter wheel with a number of teeth. This is positioned close to the stump and lowered progressively whilst panning left to right until the stump is ground out. Our wide variety of stump grinding machines are capable of removing any size stumps to a depth of 24 inches below ground level.

Wainwright’s stump grinding services in Altrincham uses several sizes of grinding machinery, depending on the location and extent of the stump and root system to be removed. Please note that such machinery is heavy, and whilst every care is taken to minimise damage to surrounding areas, it may not be possible to completely remove the stump if trees and other obstructions, such as walls, prevent access. Steep banks and tight corners may also be too unsafe for machinery to operate in.
The grindings from the stump removal process are normally left on site, for the client to use as a garden mulch, or recycled via the green garden waste bins. Whilst the stump removal may generate a large quantity of material, this method keeps costs down and is environmentally friendly.

Tree stumps are not cut down to ground level. Stumps of sufficient height can be left for carving into an interesting garden feature, or the tree will be cut down to just above ground height, and treated with a poison to destroy the stump. Should the tree species be one of the more aggressive types, such as ash, where the remaining stump can send out new growth, or the remaining roots are able to generate not just one new tree but several, complete removal of both stump and tree roots will be required. Your professional arborist will be happy to advise on either grubbing the stump out of the ground, or we will provide our Stump Grinding service Altrincham.
