We're regularly on-site across the area, from long-standing homes near The Kingsway to newer properties closer to Mimico. Every yard brings something different, so we look at the stump and the space around it before deciding what equipment fits the job.
We start by looking over the stump and anything close by that needs care, things like fences, garden beds, or buried sprinkler lines. The grinder then works the stump and its root system down below the surface, leaving nothing behind to trip over or mow around.
Once grinding is done, we leave the wood chips on-site for you to use as free mulch, great for garden beds or pathways. If you'd rather have them hauled away for a completely clear yard, that's available for an added cost, just let us know when you book.
Most Etobicoke properties don't need the full root ball dug out, grinding takes care of it. The visible stump and the bulk of the root system get cleared, and whatever's left underground breaks down naturally over the following seasons without touching nearby paving or landscaping.
Full removal is a bigger undertaking, and it's really only necessary when construction is planned directly over that spot, something like a new patio or an addition. Since Etobicoke falls under Toronto's tree protection rules, it's worth knowing that permits apply to removing living trees over a certain size, not to grinding a stump that's already been cut. If your project also involves a standing tree, we can point you toward what's needed there.
Running a stump grinder well takes more than owning the equipment. We use these machines regularly, which means the results are consistent, clean, and done without damaging what's nearby.
Getting a quote doesn't require a site visit in most cases. A photo of the stump with a measuring tape across it, along with your address, is usually enough for us to put together an accurate price.
