Three steps to a clean yard

Stump removal is simpler than most homeowners think. Most jobs get quoted by phone in under five minutes, land on the schedule within the week, and finish in a single visit.

Call us

Tell us how many stumps, rough size, and yard access. Most quotes come back in five minutes flat. For oddball setups — split stumps, hillside lots, blocked alleys — we’ll come look in person.

Get on the schedule

Same-week scheduling is standard. We give you a two-hour arrival window and text when the crew’s on the way. No need to be home — just clear access to the stump.

We grind, we clean up, you’re done

We grind four to eight inches below grade — deep enough to plant grass or new trees. Chips get raked into the hole or hauled off, your call. Yard’s usable the same day.

Why removing a stump now beats waiting

Stumps aren’t an emergency. They’re also not getting easier. New shoots sprout within a year. Carpenter ants and termites find the soft wood fast in Fort Worth’s climate. The grinding itself gets slower as the wood seasons — oak and pecan get rock-hard after two summers. Most homeowners we talk to wish they’d called sooner.

Every kind of stump, every kind of yard

From single backyard stumps to full lot clearings, we handle the full range of stump grinding work across Fort Worth. Residential, commercial, post-storm cleanup — same crew, same equipment, same price posture.

Residential stump grinding

The bread and butter. Single backyard stumps from removed oaks, pecans, cedar elms — whatever your last tree was. Quoted in under five minutes by phone. Most jobs done in 30-60 minutes on site.

Tree and stump removal Fort Worth

Tree still standing but coming down? We coordinate the full job — tree drop and stump grind in one visit when scheduling allows. Cuts your timeline in half and one crew owns the cleanup.

Commercial stump removal

Property managers, HOAs, builders, lot clearings. We carry insurance docs and invoice net-30. Fleet equipment for high-volume jobs. References from FW property management groups on request.

Large stump removal

Thirty-inch oaks. Sixty-year pecans. Roots running under the fence. Bigger grinders, more time on site, fair pricing. Large stumps cost more than small ones — they shouldn’t cost double just because the tree was old.

Storm damage and emergency stumps

The 2021 ice storm killed a lot of trees in Fort Worth — we’re still grinding those stumps. Split trunks, snapped-off bases, partial root pulls all get handled. Priority scheduling for safety hazards.

Stump grinding for tight access yards

Stockyards-area homes with 36-inch alley gates? Older Cultural District lots? We carry compact grinders that fit through standard side gates. No fence panels removed, no neighbor coordination needed.

Local, honest, and on the calendar this week

Fort Worth has plenty of tree services. What’s harder to find: a stump specialist who answers the phone, quotes accurately, shows up on schedule, and doesn’t disappear after collecting the deposit.

Specialized in stumps

Tree services grind stumps as an afterthought. We do this every day, all day. Better equipment, better pricing, faster turnaround because it’s the only job we run.

Local crews, local trucks

Based in Fort Worth, not dispatched from Dallas. We know which Stockyards-area alleys won’t fit a trailer, which HOAs have quiet hours, which neighborhoods have weight restrictions. Local matters.

Honest pricing

No “extra root removal fees.” No “soft soil surcharges.” No “we hit something unexpected” calls mid-job. The quote you get on the phone is what you pay. Period.

Same-week scheduling

Five to seven day standard. Hazards prioritized — split stumps, lean-overs, anything near a structure. We don’t disappear like the cheaper guys who book you and ghost.

Should you rent a stump grinder or hire a pro?

Renting a stump grinder is doable. In Fort Worth, a half-day rental runs $150-200, full day $250-300. Add a trailer rental if you don’t own one, plus fuel, plus the pickup deposit. For three or four stumps you can batch in one weekend, the math sometimes works.

The hidden costs catch most DIYers. Plan on one to three hours per stump your first time — learning curve is real. Stump grinders throw debris fifty feet. The kickback when you hit a root is the surprise that puts people in the ER. The dust cloud will coat your house and your neighbor’s. You’re hauling 200+ pounds of equipment up and down a trailer ramp.

DIY makes sense if you’ve got three or more small stumps in the same yard, you already own or can borrow a trailer, and you have a full weekend. Hiring out makes sense for single stumps, large stumps, anything within ten feet of a structure or sprinkler line, or anytime the job has to be done by Friday.

If you’d rather skip the rental, the trailer, the noise, and the cleanup — call us. Most single-stump jobs we quote come in under what the rental costs anyway.

What Fort Worth homeowners ask first

Straight answers on cost, process, timing, and what happens after.

Grinding is the right call about 95% of the time. It’s cheaper, faster, and skips the excavation that full removal requires. Roots stay in the ground and decay over a few years — no damage to your yard. Full removal only makes sense when you’re replanting in the exact same spot, or when the stump is interfering with a foundation or hardscape.

Single residential stumps in the Fort Worth metro typically run $75 to $200 depending on size, hardness, and access. Bigger stumps (24″+) push higher. Oak and pecan grind slower than softer woods — that’s priced in. Bulk pricing kicks in once you’ve got three or more stumps in one yard. We quote everything on the phone, no obligation.

Large stumps (30 inches and up) typically run $200 to $400. Mature pecan and live oak land at the upper end — that wood is hard and slow. Accessibility adds 20-30% if we can’t get the equipment within fifteen feet of the stump. Anything that requires fence panel removal or hand-carry of equipment gets quoted on-site.

A typical 12-18 inch residential stump takes 30 to 60 minutes. Large stumps run one to two hours. Most one to three stump jobs finish in under two hours total. We schedule a two-hour arrival window — you don’t need to be home, just make sure the gate’s unlocked.

We grind four to eight inches below ground level — deep enough to plant grass over or put in a new tree. The chips fill the hole as the remaining roots decay over the next year or two. We can rake the chips back into the hole or haul them off if you don’t want them. Yard’s usable the same day.

See the full breakdown above. Short version: renting makes sense for three or more small stumps you can batch in a weekend. Hiring out makes sense for single stumps, large stumps, anything within ten feet of a structure, or anytime you’re on a deadline.

Five to seven business days is standard. Twenty-four to forty-eight hours for genuine hazards — split stumps, lean-overs near structures, anything threatening a fence or sprinkler line. We don’t promise “same day” because that’s almost always a lie in this business.

Yes. Split stumps, snapped-off trunks, partial root pulls — all standard work. The 2021 ice storm took out thousands of trees in the Fort Worth metro and we’re still grinding those stumps. If you’re filing an insurance claim, we can document the work for your adjuster. Spring storm season books up fast — call early.
