BeforeAfter grindingREAL HEARTLAND WORK
What’s left after a stump is ground?
A real Heartland job, before and after. Grinding removes the stump from the way without excavating the entire root system.
Grindings stay in a neat pile. Raking and blowing are included. Hauling, new soil, seeding and landscaping are separate.

WATCH MATT AT WORK
What happens during stump grinding?
Watch Matt work across a backyard stump, move the grinder out and rake the area. This short time-lapse shows the job from grinding through cleanup.
The cutting wheel breaks the wood into chips. Those chips mix with soil and stay on site, ready for the next step you’ve planned.

THE WORK, RIGHT THROUGH CLEANUP
A clear plan. A tidy finish.
Matt brings the grinder to your property, works through the agreed stump area and tidies up before loading the equipment. This photo shows the pile of wood chips and soil that remains after grinding.
