Tree Stump Grinding in Glasgow

How Benson's Tree Surgery Handles Tree Stump Grinding in Glasgow

Tree stump grinding is the process of using a powerful rotary machine to shred a tree stump into small wood chips, removing it below ground level. Unlike full stump removal (which excavates the entire root system), grinding is faster, more affordable, and minimally disruptive to your landscape.

We ensure:

  1. Depth & Precision
    • We grind 12–18inch grinding depth by default (deeper on request) – so no surprise sprouting!
  2. Equipment & Safety
    • Our LOLER-inspected industrial grinders (not DIY machines) handle stumps of any size, with minimal turf damage.
  3. Clean-Up & Disposal
    • We tidy every job and recycle 100% of waste (zero landfill).
  4. Pricing Transparency
    • We offer clear upfront quotes – no hidden fees.
  5. Eco-Friendly Options
    • Some customers request the free mulch for gardens , or we remove it away – your choice.
