Service 03Sub-Grade Root Eradication• Same-Day / Next-Day Service

Heavy-Duty Stump Grinding

Grind it down. Clean it up. Get your yard back. We pulverize deep root flares 12-18 inches below grade.

Old stumps harbor subterranean termite colonies, carpenter ants, and wood-decay fungus that spreads to nearby foundations and landscaping. Honey Bee Tree Service uses high-powered carbide-wheel stump grinders that pulverize tough oak, redwood, and palm stumps down to rich mulch so you can lay sod, plant gardens, or pour concrete.

Deep sub-grade grinding 12–18 inches below soil level to eliminate suckers and root regrowth
