What Is Stump Grinding?
Stump grinding is the process of mechanically removing a tree stump by using a specialised grinding machine. The machine shreds the stump down below ground level—usually between 150mm and 300mm deep—so the area can be reused for turf, paving, planting, or general landscaping.
Unlike digging a stump out completely, grinding is faster, less invasive, and leaves the surrounding ground undisturbed. Once the stump is ground, what’s left is a pile of fine woodchips, which can either be removed or used as mulch on-site.
For deeper root systems or when full removal is needed (such as for construction prep), we may recommend excavating the remaining roots after grinding.

Why Hire a Professional to Remove Your Tree Stump?
Removing a stump might look simple, but it’s often more complex than expected. DIY methods are slow, messy, and can leave roots behind—or worse, cause damage to nearby structures or utilities.
Hiring a professional like GDE Tree Services Sydney means the job gets done right, the first time:
- Efficient stump grinding using the right machinery for the size and location
- Safe operation around fences, walls, gardens, and paving
- No regrowth—we grind deep enough to stop the stump coming back

- Insured and compliant—we work to strict safety standards on every site
Our team removes stumps quickly and properly, saving you the time, effort, and risk of trying to do it yourself.
FAQs About Our Tree Stump Removal Services
How deep do you grind the stump?
We typically grind stumps 150mm to 300mm below ground level, which is deep enough to prevent regrowth and allow for turfing or light landscaping.
What happens to the mulch or grindings?
The mulch stays on-site and is typically used to fill the hole left by the stump. You can also spread it around your garden as mulch.
Can a stump grow back after grinding?
In most cases, no. Stump grinding removes the visible stump and weakens the root system enough to prevent regrowth. For some species with aggressive roots, we grind deeper to reduce the chance of shoots reappearing.
Do you offer stump removal without tree removal?
Yes. If a tree was removed previously—by us or someone else—we’re happy to come in just to grind the leftover stump. We handle both fresh and long-standing stumps across residential, commercial, and strata properties.
