What's the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?
Stump grinding cuts the stump below ground level using a commercial grinder, leaving the root system in place. Stump removal extracts the entire stump and root mass from the ground. Grinding is faster and lower cost; full removal is the right choice when you're replanting, building, or need a fully clear site.
