Yes. Stump grinding is how we remove stumps in Kensington and across Montgomery County — the terms mean the same thing to most homeowners. We grind the stump well below ground so it's gone for good, and if you want every wood chip cleared out so you can backfill with topsoil, sod, or a new tree, we'll haul it all away too.

We schedule Kensington jobs quickly — often within a few days, and faster for emergencies. Text us a photo of your stump and we'll get you a price and a time.

We typically grind stumps to 8–12 inches below the surrounding grade — deep enough to plant grass, lay sod, or install new landscaping over the area. If you're planting a new tree or shrub in the same location, let us know and we can grind deeper or recommend full stump removal instead.

Yes. Once the stump is ground below grade we can backfill the hole with the wood grindings or with clean topsoil so the area is level and ready to seed. For the best lawn results we recommend backfilling with topsoil before seeding, since fresh wood chips can temporarily tie up nitrogen in the soil.

That's your choice. We can spread the grindings as natural mulch around your beds and tree rings, or we can haul everything away and backfill with topsoil for a clean, level finish. Either way we always leave the work area cleaner than we found it.
