Stump grinding quotes
Left with a stump after a tree has gone? Request a quote for grinding it down and preparing the area for its next use. Include the stump size and access so contractors can assess the job.
Free to request. No obligation to hire. Up to three contractors can unlock your request and contact you. Availability varies by location and job; responses and quotes are not guaranteed.
What to include in your request
- How many stumps need grinding and their approximate width at ground level.
- The narrowest gate or access opening, plus steps or slopes.
- Nearby paving, walls, fences and any known underground services.
- Whether you plan to lawn, plant or build over the area.
- Whether grindings should stay, be removed or be used to backfill.
Photos that help contractors quote
Add a clear photo of each stump and a photo of the route a machine would need to take. Include measurements in your description if you have them. Photos are optional, but clear images of the job and access can help contractors decide whether to quote.
What affects the price?
Stump size, quantity, machine access, the required grinding depth and clean-up affect the price. Confirm the scope with the contractor, including what happens to exposed roots and grindings.
