Carolina's Elite Tree Service provides professional stump grinding in Charlotte, NC.

Our Process

1

Assessment

We evaluate the stump size, species, and location to determine the right approach. Most stumps can be ground the same day as your tree removal or on a return visit.

2

Grinding

Using professional-grade stump grinding equipment, we grind the stump several inches below the surface. This removes the visible stump and the shallow root system.

3

Cleanup

The wood chip grindings are used to fill the hole, and the area is raked clean. You are left with a level patch ready for grass seed, sod, or landscaping.

Why Choose Us

I was very impressed with Mark and his crews work ethic. They answered our request quickly and came out to give us a fair quote. They came every day and worked hard to get two massive trees down. They cleaned up extremely well and cut the wood pieces down so we could use them in our fire pit outside.

Frequently Asked Questions

How deep do you grind the stump?
We typically grind stumps 6 to 12 inches below ground level, which is deep enough to allow for planting grass or landscaping over the area.
Can you grind a stump the same day you remove the tree?
In most cases, yes. If you are having a tree removed, we can grind the stump at the same time. We can also grind stumps from trees removed by other companies.
What happens to the hole after grinding?
The wood chip grindings are used to fill the hole, and the area is raked level. Over time the chips settle and decompose. You can add topsoil and seed for grass if desired.
Do I need stump grinding after tree removal?
Stump grinding is recommended to prevent pest infestation, eliminate a tripping hazard, and allow you to use the full area of your yard. Leaving a stump can attract termites, ants, and fungi.
How big a stump can you grind?
We handle stumps of all sizes, from small ornamental trees to large hardwoods. Very large stumps may take longer to grind, but we have the equipment to handle any job.
