Stump Grinding
Axeman's Trees offers a fast and effective tree stump grinding service in the Wollongong and Illawarra region as well as in the Sutherland Shire.
When a tree has been removed it is usually felled to just above ground level which leaves the stump and root ball in the ground.
Axeman's Trees Stump Grinding Service
Axeman's Trees professionals use a specialised stump grinding machine to quickly and effectively remove the stump from your property. The machine removes the visible part of the stump leaving the root ball underground, which will decay over time. The process reduces the stump to wood chip and sawdust, which we can remove if you require or leave for you to use as mulch on your garden.
Why Grind Your Tree Stump?
Tree stumps left above ground level can create certain issues in your garden:
1. Breeding Ground for Pests
A stump is a potential breeding ground for pests such as termites and ants.
2. Unsightly/Trip Hazard
Stumps can look messy and can pose a hazard if they are in a frequently used location.
3. Limit Your Garden Potential
Removing the stump enables you to use your garden space fully.
