Frequently Asked Questions
Stump Grinding-specific answers for South Carolina property owners.
Q. Can I plant a new tree where the stump was?
A. Yes, provided we perform a "deep grind" to remove the core root mass. We recommend adding fresh topsoil and nutrients to the site, as the decaying wood chips can temporarily deplete nitrogen in SC soil.
Q. How deep do you grind the stumps?
A. Our standard grind is 8-12 inches below the surface. For construction sites or replanting areas in South Carolina, we can perform deeper grinds up to 18-24 inches to ensure all major obstructions are removed.
Q. Do I need to mark my utilities?
A. We handle the "Call Before You Dig" (811) process for you. However, private lines like irrigation, dog fences, or outdoor lighting should be marked by the homeowner before we begin grinding on your SC property.
Q. What happens to all the wood chips?
A. Stump grinding creates a significant amount of mulch. Most South Carolina homeowners use this as free mulch for garden beds. Alternatively, we can haul it away for a small additional fee.
