Question 1

How much does stump grinding cost?

Accepted Answer

Our minimum is $175 and most residential jobs in the Twin Cities land between $200–$500. The main factors are stump diameter, how many stumps you have, and whether there are surface roots or tight access. Text us a photo and we’ll give you a flat price — no range, no surprises.

Question 2

How do I get a quote?

Accepted Answer

The fastest way is to text a photo of your stump to (612) 440-7641 along with your address. We reply with a price within a few hours. You can also fill out the quote form on our website — but a photo will always get you the most accurate number.

Question 3

How deep do you grind?

Accepted Answer

Standard residential grinds go 4–6 inches below grade — enough for lawn restoration, sod, or most landscaping. If you’re planting a new tree, pouring a sidewalk, or doing excavation nearby, we offer a deep grind at 12–14 inches. Just let us know when you reach out.

Question 4

Will the grinding damage my lawn?

Accepted Answer

We use a wheeled machine, not tracked equipment, so turf impact is minimal. We’re careful around sprinkler heads, edging, and landscaping. Let us know about any underground systems when you book and we’ll work around them.

Question 5

What happens to the wood chips?

Accepted Answer

Your choice. We can leave them as a tidy pile you can use for fill, mulch, or compost — or we haul them away. Just let us know your preference when you book. There’s no extra charge to leave them on-site.

Question 6

How quickly can you get out here?

Accepted Answer

We typically schedule within the same week. Text us early in the week for the best availability. Need it done faster? Ask about same-day service — it’s available depending on our schedule, and we’ll always tell you straight whether we can make it work.

Question 7

Do you call 811 before every job?

Accepted Answer

Yes, every time. We call 811 before we touch anything on your property so public utility lines are marked in advance. That's standard on every job, no exceptions. One thing worth knowing: 811 only marks public utility lines — it doesn't cover private lines like irrigation systems, low-voltage lighting, invisible dog fences, or other homeowner-installed systems. If you have any of these on your property, please let us know before work begins so we can avoid them.
