Stump grinding is a method of removing tree stumps by using a specialized machine to grind the stump down to below ground level. It turns the stump into small wood chips, allowing the area to be used for landscaping or replanting.
Stumps can rot and quickly become home to termites, ants and other nuisance pests. Not only that, they can also be unsightly trip hazards, ruining the aesthetics of your garden and causing significant challenges to future landscaping work. If a stump is cut below ground level and covered it may regrow its roots – storing up plenty of potential future issues for your property and garden. At Spitting Chips we have many different stump grinding machines to perfectly suit your needs and property. It doesn't matter what the size the stump is or where it's located – we have the tools and experience to get your job done right!
Stump grinding is the most efficient way to remove unwanted tree stumps from your property. Using high-powered stump grinding machines, we grind the stump down below ground level, turning it into small wood chips. This method avoids the need for digging or uprooting, which can disturb nearby plants, pipes, or structures. It’s a fast and safe process that leaves your landscape clean and ready for future use.
Leaving tree stumps unattended can lead to several issues. They can become a tripping hazard, attract termites and pests, or cause new tree growth through sprouting. In commercial or rental properties, stumps may also reduce usable space and hurt your curb appeal. With our Canberra stump grinding service, you’ll eliminate these risks while enhancing your property’s appearance and safety.

Stump grinding is a method of removing tree stumps by using a specialized machine to grind the stump down to below ground level. It turns the stump into small wood chips, allowing the area to be used for landscaping or replanting.
Grinding a tree stump removes an unsightly hazard from your yard, prevents pests like termites or ants from nesting, and allows for easier mowing and landscaping. It also stops future growth from the old root system.
Typically, stumps are ground down 15 to 30 centimeters (6–12 inches) below the surface. This is usually deep enough to cover the area with soil or lawn and prevent regrowth.
Stump grinding is a targeted process, and our trained team takes care to avoid damaging nearby landscaping, structures, or utilities. We assess the area beforehand to ensure safety and precision.
The wood chips created from stump grinding can be left on-site for use as mulch or compost, or we can remove them entirely—whichever option suits your needs best.
