How Aaron works
Attention to detail. We grind every stump out to a proper depth and take the roots as well, so when you clear the grindings away you will not find a stump that was only ground to ground level. We have had to regrind stumps for people who chose an operator without the proper machines, and that ends up costing them twice. We do it once and we do it properly.
- Aaron looks after the whole process, from the quote to the finished job, so you deal with one person.

- Hard access and large stumps are our speciality.
What the job involves
From Aaron:
We grind every stump below ground level, and how far below depends on what is going in the area once the stump work is finished. Grinding out the whole stump is the outcome we aim for, but underground services do not always allow it.
If a stump runs a metre deep into the ground, we will not usually take all of it out when the job does not need it, but it can be done.
Before you book stump grinding in Caloundra
How deep we grind
We arrange Dial Before You Dig for the job. Before You Dig Australia is a free service that provides plans of the underground infrastructure at a site before work starts. Services in the ground are what can stop us grinding out the whole stump.
Tight access and large stumps
Hard access and large stumps are what we specialise in. Our machines run from really small to really big, so there is one narrow enough for a side gate and one big enough for a large stump.
When you ask for a quote, tell us how wide the access is, so we know which machine to bring and whether ramps are needed.
Getting a quote
Every job is different, so we work out each quote case by case. It comes down to the size and number of stumps, how far away the job is, the ground conditions such as rocks, and whether we need the smallest machine or have to set up ramps to get in.
Send photos of the stump through the quote form, with the suburb and how wide the access is. You get a same-day response.
Common questions
What happens to the wood chips afterwards?
The grindings stay on site. We rake them into a pile and blow off any hard surfaces, and what you do with them from there is up to you. If you plan to use them as mulch, Gardening Australia explains that micro-organisms breaking down fresh woody material draw nitrogen out of the soil to do it, so fresh chips compete with plant roots for nutrients.
Can you get to a stump in a tight spot?
Yes. Hard access is our speciality. Our machines run from really small to really big, so there is one that fits through a narrow gate. Tell us how wide the access is when you ask for a quote, so we know which machine to bring and whether we need to set up ramps.
Do you grind large stumps?
Yes. Large stumps are a speciality, alongside hard access, and we have machines big enough for them. If a stump runs a metre deep into the ground, We will not usually remove all of it when the job does not need it, but it can be done.
