Buried Lines
Grinding goes below ground, so it's worth having lines located first. Locate requests in Ontario go through the Ontario Dig Authority, the new name for Ontario One Call.
Tiny Township Stump Grinding
Tired of mowing around an old stump? We grind it below the surface so the spot can be seeded, planted or built on.
- Fresh and old stumps
- Ground below the surface
- Chips left or hauled away
Stump Removal Without Digging Up the Yard
A grinder chews the stump into chips, down below the grass, without the hole and torn-up lawn that pulling one out leaves. It works on fresh stumps and on ones that have been sitting for years.
We can grind right after a removal or come back for stumps that are already there. It's one of four services we offer as a local tree service in Tiny, Ontario.
Which Method Suits Your Yard?
Grinding is the usual choice for lawns and gardens. It leaves the long roots in place to rot, and the surface can be seeded within days.
Pulling a stump out takes an excavator and leaves a crater and a mess of soil and roots. It's mainly worth it when the whole root mass has to go, for a foundation or a new driveway.
Before We Start
A few things are worth sorting out before grinding day:
Septic Beds and Wells
Show us where the septic bed, wells and any irrigation lines are. They change where the grinder can go.
Gate Width and Access
Tell us how wide your gate is and whether there's a slope or a soft spot between the road and the stump.
Rocks and Fence Wire
Old wire and stones can turn up in stumps on rural lots in Tiny, ON. Point out anything you know about.
Stump Grinding Service for Lawns and Gardens
After grinding, you're left with a pile of chips and soil where the stump was. They can be raked into the hole, spread as mulch, or hauled away, depending on what was agreed.
The spot often settles a little as the roots break down, so a top-up of soil after the first season is normal. For a new tree, plant a few feet to one side of the old stump.

Diameter matters most, followed by how hard it is to reach, how many roots show above ground, and whether you want the grindings taken away.
Things People Ask
How much does stump grinding cost?+
Typically $100 to $1,000 per stump, plus about $100 to $300 if the grindings are hauled away, based on HomeStars' 2026 Canada-wide cost guide. Several stumps on one visit usually cost less each.
Do you work in Tiny?+
Yes. Call (249) 559-1372.
How deep do you grind?+
Below the surface, deep enough to cover with soil and seed. If you're planting or building on the spot, tell us and we'll talk about going deeper.
Do the roots get removed?+
Grinding removes the stump and the root flare near it. The long roots stay in the ground and rot away over a few years.
Can I plant a new tree in the same spot?+
It's better to plant a little to one side. The old roots and wood chips break down slowly and can sink or starve a new tree.
Can you grind a stump from a tree someone else cut?+
Yes. Old stumps, fresh stumps and stumps left by another crew are all fine.
