At Family Tree Removal, we offer fast, thorough stump removal and grinding services to help you reclaim your outdoor space. Serving Shelby Township and nearby areas, we provide expert solutions to eliminate stumps completely and efficiently.
Why Remove Tree Stumps?
Leaving stumps behind may seem harmless, but they can cause long-term issues such as:
- Tripping hazards for children, pets, and lawn equipment
- Pest infestations, including termites, ants, and beetles
- Fungal growth and rot that spreads to healthy trees or soil
- Obstacles to new landscaping or lawn care
- Unattractive appearance in an otherwise well-maintained yard
Removing the stump improves both the function and aesthetics of your yard.

FAQs About Stump Removal
How deep do you grind the stump?
We grind stumps 6–12 inches below the surface, depending on customer preference and landscaping plans.
Can you remove surface roots too?
Yes. If roots are visible and creating issues, we can remove or grind them down during the service.
Is stump grinding better than digging it out?
Yes. Grinding is faster, less invasive, and more cost-effective than excavation. It also causes less damage to surrounding areas.
What happens to the wood chips?
You can choose to keep the mulch or have us haul it away. We also offer to fill the hole with topsoil if needed.
Do you offer stump removal without tree removal?
Absolutely. We can remove old stumps left from previous tree work, even if we didn’t cut down the original tree.
