FAQs

Straight answers

Everything Metairie homeowners ask us before the grinder fires up. Something else on your mind? Call us—a human answers.

How deep do you grind the stump?

Standard jobs go 6–12 inches below grade—deep enough to lay sod, plant, or pour over. Need it deeper for construction? Just say so when we quote.

How long does a typical job take?

Most single stumps take 30–90 minutes on site, including cleanup. Large hardwood stumps or tight-access yards can take a little longer.

What happens to all the wood chips?

Your choice: we rake them into the hole as natural backfill and mulch, or we haul everything away and leave the area level and clean.

Will grinding damage my lawn or sprinkler lines?

We use turf protection mats and compact equipment, and we always ask about irrigation, utilities, and invisible fences before the machine starts.

Do you remove the roots too?

Grinding kills the stump and we chase accessible surface roots. Deep roots naturally decay underground and won't regrow—no chemicals needed.

How fast can you get to me?

Quotes come back within one business day, and most Metairie jobs are scheduled within the same week. Storm cleanup gets priority booking.
