Hi, can you quote removing this big gum next to the house? We're in Glenorie.
Straightforward removal, we'd bring the crane in for the trunk so nothing goes near the roof. I'll text a price through this arvo, could be there Thursday.A Noble Arborist
Perfect, thank you!

Removing the tree is only half the job. A ground-out stump means you can replant, lay turf, pour a slab or just reclaim your yard.

We grind stumps well below ground level so the area is clear and ready to reuse. Our machines handle everything from small garden stumps to large gum stumps on acreage, and we can reach tight backyards through standard gates.

Grinding is faster, tidier and less disruptive than digging a stump out, with no need to excavate around services or disturb the surrounding garden. We clean up the grindings and leave the area level.

  • Grinding below ground level
  • Large gum and hardwood stumps
  • Small garden and ornamental stumps
  • Tight backyard and side-access stumps

Frequently asked questions

How far down do you grind the stump?

Usually 200 to 300mm below the surface, which is enough for turf or planting. We can go deeper if you are planning to build or pave over the area, just let us know.

Will the tree grow back after grinding?

Grinding the stump and main surface roots stops regrowth from the stump itself. Some species send up suckers from remaining roots, and we can advise on managing that if needed.

Can you grind a stump in a tight backyard?

Yes. Our equipment fits through standard gates and tight side accesses, so most backyard stumps are no problem.
