Removing a dead or damaged tree might feel like the hard part’s done—until you’re stuck with a big, ugly stump. But it’s not just about looks. Stumps can be serious tripping hazards, attract pests and wildlife, and even spread disease to nearby healthy trees.
That’s why it’s best to take care of them sooner rather than later. At Treemendous Tree Care, we make stump removal easy and hassle-free for homeowners and businesses across Sterling Heights, Michigan.
Stump removal is the last, crucial step in any tree removal job—but who you hire to do it makes all the difference.
This isn’t work for someone with a rented grinder and a truck. There’s too much that can go wrong. Inexperienced crews might leave part of the stump behind, tear up your yard, hit underground utility lines, or even spread disease to your other trees.
Instead, contact the professionals at Treemendous Tree Care! We have a team of stump-grinding professionals who have the tools, equipment, and expertise to get the job done correctly (and safely)!
Some folks think stump removal is optional, but we usually suggest it for both homeowners and businesses. Here are a few solid reasons to go ahead and have those stumps ground down or completely removed:
Tree stumps pose a major tripping risk—especially on commercial properties, where an injury could easily lead to liability claims or even lawsuits.
Running over a tree stump with a lawnmower can cause major damage to the machine—and in severe cases, it might send broken blade pieces flying, creating a serious safety hazard.
Tree stumps are a magnet for pests—rats, mice, chipmunks, snakes, and frogs often move in. They also provide ideal shelter for bees, wasps, termites, roaches, and spiders.
As stumps break down, they turn into breeding grounds for harmful fungi and bacteria. These can spread and pose risks to your family, pets, and surrounding trees.
Trees can boost your property’s curb appeal, but stumps do the opposite. They leave your yard looking messy and neglected—not the kind of first impression most people want.
One benefit of removing a tree is making space to plant something new—whether it’s flowers, shrubs, or another tree. But that’s only possible once the old stump and roots are completely removed.
Tree stumps can sometimes send up new shoots that develop into small trunks. The issue is, these shoots are often poorly anchored, making them unstable and potentially dangerous as they grow.
Tree stumps can lower your property’s value because potential buyers often see them as a future expense and a project they’ll need to take care of.

Whether it’s one stump or a whole yard full, our experienced team will take care of it quickly, safely, and with attention to detail.

While all stump removal services aim to achieve the same end result, we offer a few tailored options to fit different needs and property types. You can choose from three main approaches:
Stump grinding is easily our most in-demand service—and for good reason. We use a powerful, high-speed grinder with a sharp spinning blade that shreds the stump into wood chips and dust. In most cases, we grind the stump down while leaving the roots in place. Whether you want it flush with the ground or several inches below the surface, we’ll tailor the depth to fit your needs.
Stump removal takes it a step beyond grinding by extracting the entire stump along with a large portion of the root system. Rather than using a grinder, we use heavy-duty machinery to cut through the roots and lift the stump out completely. The biggest benefit? You get a clean, open area—ideal for planting new trees, shrubs, or starting fresh landscaping, since most of the roots are gone.
Root grinding is often done alongside stump grinding, but it isn’t always needed. When it is, our team targets the exposed roots surrounding the stump—either on their own or along with the stump itself. This extra step gives your yard a more polished, finished look and helps prevent damage to your lawnmower and other equipment from hidden, stubborn roots.
Skip the DIY hacks and weekend crews with borrowed equipment. Drilling holes and dumping chemicals? It’s unsafe—and rarely does the trick.
