What Our Stump Grinding Services Cover

Stump grinding services take a stump down below the soil line so you can seed grass, lay sod, or simply stop mowing around it. For most homeowners in the Texarkana area, this is the fastest and most affordable way to reclaim a section of yard after a tree comes down.

Some jobs call for more than grinding. When a driveway, foundation, or new tree is going in the exact same spot, we offer full stump and root removal: pulling the entire root ball, backfilling the hole, and leveling the ground so it's ready for construction.

We handle stumps left behind by our own tree removal crews, stumps from trees taken down by someone else, and old stumps that have been sitting in a yard for years. Whether it's one stubborn oak stump from a large tree removal job or a whole lot full of them, we bring the right equipment for the job. Left alone, a stump becomes a mower hazard and a magnet for pests, not just an eyesore in the yard.

Signs You Need Stump Removal Services

Not every stump needs to go the same day, but several situations make stump removal services worth scheduling sooner rather than later.

  • A stump sits close enough to your house or driveway that surface roots are lifting concrete or sidewalk pavers
  • You're planning to install a fence, patio, or new landscaping and a stump is blocking the layout
  • Old stumps are sprouting fungus or showing soft, decaying wood, a sign of termite or carpenter ant activity
  • You're preparing for construction or foundation work and need complete stump and root removal, not just grinding
  • A stump is hidden in tall grass and has already caught a mower blade or become a trip hazard for kids or guests
  • A recent storm damage tree removal or fallen tree removal left a stump behind that you'd rather not deal with yourself

If any of these sound familiar, call (903) 293-5567 and we'll walk you through the right approach for your yard.

Our Process

How We Handle Stump Grinding and Removal

Every stump job starts with a look at what's underground before any equipment touches the yard. Here's how we approach it from start to finish.

  1. Step 1: Site Assessment

    We look at the stump's size, root spread, and location relative to your house, driveway, and any underground lines. This tells us whether grinding or full stump and root removal is the better fit.

  2. Step 2: Utility Check

    Before we grind or dig deep, we confirm the location of gas, water, and fiber optic lines. This step protects your property and keeps the job on schedule.

  3. Step 3: Grinding or Extraction

    Using track-mounted grinders that won't tear up your lawn, we grind the stump below grade or, for full removal, pull the root ball out entirely and backfill the hole.

  4. Step 4: Cleanup and Haul-Off

    We haul wood chips and debris away on our dump trailers, or leave them behind as mulch if you'd rather use them in your flower beds. Either way, your yard is left level and ready for what's next.

Why Texarkana Homeowners Choose Cranford

Grinding a stump wrong can mean a torn-up yard, a hidden root that keeps growing back, or a hole that turns into a hazard of its own. Here's what sets our approach apart.

  • Equipment Built for the Job

    Our grinders are powerful enough to chew through mature hardwood stumps common to this region, yet compact enough to fit through a standard backyard gate without tearing up your turf.

  • Locally Rooted Since 2007

    We've worked the soil types and deep-rooted hardwoods around Texarkana, Atlanta, and the surrounding towns for years, and know what it takes to get a stump out clean the first time.

  • Insured Crews, Careful Work

    Our team is trained to call for utility locates before digging or grinding deep, protecting the gas, water, and fiber lines running under your property.

  • Full-Service Follow Through

    We offer both stump grinding and complete stump and root removal, plus tree root removal for roots that have spread into sidewalks or foundations, so one call handles the whole problem.

  • Ryan Crowder a year ago
    Brice and his team are amazing! Great work at a great price!
  • Karen Roberts 2 years ago
    Friend shared my name and address and I got a call, Brice had already been by to look and gave me a VERY good fair deal to clean up a partially downed tree someone else did not complete cutting and clean up. He came that very day and worked hard to finish cutting down, clean up that project AND some other trimmings from some trees in my back yard. I was very happy but he insisted to stay even longer and rake and blow all loose leaves and debris before he would let me pay him. When he finished my front lawn looked like nothing had ever happened!! Please support this honest and fair business!. We as a community need to keep him!
  • Cody 2 years ago
    Brice and his crew cut down three big pine trees in front of my house for me. They did a great job! I've got two more trees in my backyard that need to come down. I'm definitely calling them back when I get ready to do it.
  • Bob Suggs 3 years ago
    Did an excellent job at a fair price, I would definitely use Cranford tree service!
  • James Ponce de Leon 3 years ago
    I was in terribe shape after a lightening strike hit a 100' tall pine in my backyard, splitting it to the ground and catching it on fire. The tree was only 65 feet from my house and was at risk of falling onto it. I called Cranford Land Management and Brice came by within the hour. The job was qouted and I called the next day to give them the go ahead. They were at my house the next morning to put the tree on the ground so it would not fall onto my house. It was raining heavily that week, so they came back several times to clear out the debri when it was dry enough so they woulld not tear up my grass in the yard. The friendly, highly professional work was excellent. Now I have them doing work on my land cutting trails. I will never call anyone else.

    Brice was a pleasure to hire. He worked us into his schedule so he could get our tree down before a big storm was supposed to hit, in order to save our home if it fell. Pricing was very fair and he was quick and efficient. Would highly recommend.
