Root Grinding

Surface roots that heave sidewalks, driveways, and lawns.

Surface roots left behind after a tree comes down (or roots that have grown into a walkway, patio, or lawn) can be ground down separately from stump removal. This levels the surface and reduces tripping hazards without excavating the whole root system.

Root grinding is often paired with stump grinding on the same visit, but can be booked on its own for root-only jobs.

  • Levels heaved sidewalks, driveways, and patios
  • Reduces mower and foot-traffic hazards
  • Can be scoped as its own job or combined with stump grinding
  • Site is left graded and ready for sod or mulch
