Services
Stump grinding services
From one old cottonwood stump to a lot full of them, we bring the grinder to you. Stump grinding is all we do, so the machine, the cleanup and the price are built around it.
Root grinding
Surface roots that lift lawns, trip mowers, crowd a fence line or creep toward sprinkler lines, ground out along with the stump.
Multiple stumps & lots
Clearing a row of old trees, a new build or an HOA common area? One trip, one price, and 5–20% off when you have two or more stumps.
Chip cleanup
Leaving the chips as mulch is free. Raking them in is $25–$50, and haul-away starts at $50. You choose when you book.
Stump removal in Bountiful
Grinding is the fast way to remove a stump
Most people searching for stump removal want the stump gone so they can use the yard again. Grinding does that in a fraction of the time it takes to dig a stump out, with far less damage to the lawn, the driveway and the sprinkler lines around it.
The grinder chews the stump and its root flare into chips down to 6–8 inches below grade. The roots left deep in the ground rot away on their own over the next few years. You fill the hole with topsoil, or with the chips, and plant over it.

When digging it out makes more sense
Full excavation is only worth it when something has to go exactly where the root ball was — a foundation, a deep footing or a new tree in the same hole. For lawns, garden beds, patios and pavers, grinding is enough.

FAQ
Stump grinding questions
$7.50 per inch of diameter with a $200 minimum, so any stump up to 26 inches is $200 and a 40-inch stump is $300. Multiple stumps get 5–20% off; tight access, steep terrain, rocks and haul-away add to it. See the stump grinding cost guide for the full table.
6–8 inches below grade as standard. Grinding 10–12 inches deep is +$50, and 12–18 inches is +$100 — worth it if you're planting a new tree in the same spot.
Your choice: leave them as mulch (free), have them raked and contained ($25–$50), or have us haul them away — from $50 for a small load to $100–$150 for a full pickup load.
Most residential jobs use a compact grinder that fits a standard 36-inch gate. Tight gates or limited access add $25–$100, and if a fence panel has to come out it's $75–$150. Tell us your gate width when you request a quote.
Not usually. As long as we can reach the stump and know which ones to grind, we can do the job and text you photos when it's done.
