Stump Grinding

Arbor Vet Tree Service offers professional stump grinding to clear leftover stumps and reclaim your yard space throughout Snohomish County. Our licensed crew handles stumps of all sizes, leaving your property ready for what comes next.

A leftover stump isn’t just an eyesore. It’s the last thing standing between you and a finished yard.

How deep we go

We grind stumps well below ground level, typically several inches beneath the surface, so mowers, landscaping, and foot traffic won't catch on leftover wood. This depth also helps prevent new sprouts from growing back around the old root system.

Utility locates come first

Before any grinding begins, we check for buried utility lines in the work area to keep the job safe and avoid unnecessary damage. This step protects your property and the utility lines running beneath it.

Your call on the grindings

Once the stump is ground down, you get to decide what happens to the leftover wood chips. Some customers use them as mulch around the yard, while others prefer we haul them away for a completely clean finish.

Common questions

How long does stump grinding take?

Most stump grinding jobs are completed within an hour or two, depending on the size and number of stumps. Larger or multiple stumps may take longer to finish properly.

Can you grind a stump close to my house or fence?

Yes, our crew can grind stumps in tight spaces near structures using careful positioning and the right equipment. We take extra care to protect nearby fences, foundations, and landscaping during the process.

Other services

If a tree on your property needs to come down before a stump is ever part of the picture, our crew handles removals of all sizes with careful planning around structures and utility lines. We can schedule stump grinding right after removal if you want the job finished in one visit.

Not every tree needs to come down. Regular trimming and pruning can address weak limbs, overgrowth, or storm damage while keeping the tree healthy and intact for years to come.

When a storm knocks down a tree or leaves hazardous limbs hanging, our crew is ready to respond at any hour. We work quickly to secure your property and reduce the risk of further damage.

Thomas seems very knowledgeable when it comes to tree work and educated me quite a bit on tree health and how to decide what to do with the neglected trees on our property. I appreciated that he was very communicative and kept us in the loop throughout the process. He and his crew removed a number of trees and limbed and pruned the ones that we were able to keep. It was a decent sized job and he and his hard-working crew were at our place for 4 days, even putting in some extra effort in order to adhere to the timeline that he had estimated. Overall we were happy with the work that was done, the price, and the ease of working with Arbor Vet tree service and we will likely have them back in a few years to help us keep things healthy

This was a yard makeover. My yard was planed 40 years ago and has grown great. I was having trouble keeping all the plants pruned and I had two trees close too the house that needed to be removed. We also had 7 other trees that in needed of pruning. This took 2 days to get the yard in shape and when all the work was done it looks great. The trees that were removed and chipped up filled the back of their truck. I can see the road and parking area the mailbox again which makes me happy.

Arbor Vet Tree Service responded quickly to my request for a quote and was able to come out the next morning to do the work. The owner and crew are so kind and professional. They did an excellent job cutting down some trees and pruning the rest. All disposed and cleaned up thoroughly. Thanks for the great work--highly recommend!

The Arbor Vet Tree Service Team was fantastic, no other way to describe this Team. They did what they said they would do and then some. Trees look fantastic and with the way they trimmed them up the wind will blow less tree parts into the yard when big wind storms hit. Ignore the rest, call these guys!

Thank you Arbor vet tree service for your help this weekend. They came out within an hour for an emergent, highly dangerous tree removal. We had a large maple split leaving half standing in lots of wind. Brought it down saving all of our structures from any damage.
