How Aaron works
We got into stump grinding by taking on the jobs other people said could not be done, and by giving people who need a stump ground a high-quality service. That is still how we work. Hard access and large stumps are our speciality, and we quote every job and do every job ourselves.
- Aaron quotes the work and does the work, so you only deal with one person.
- Hours: Monday to Friday 8 am to 6 pm, Saturday and Sunday 10 am to 4 pm.
- Aaron is insured for this work.
- He has ten years in the trade.
Equipment for stump grinding:
- Stump grinders from really small to really big.
- 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.

How stump grinding works
A stump grinder chips the wood away with a rotating cutter wheel fitted with fixed carbide teeth. Hydraulic cylinders move the wheel sideways and down through the stump, so the stump is cut away where it stands instead of being dug out.
We take it below ground level and grind out the roots as well. Once the grindings are cleared, you will not find a stump that was only taken down to ground level.
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
Can a tree grow back after stump grinding?
Some trees can. Queensland Government guidance on camphor laurel says that leaving the roots or crown of a mature tree in the ground will result in regrowth. Brisbane City Council describes jacaranda as a tree that resprouts easily if damaged. We grind out the roots as well as the stump, rather than stopping at ground level.
Do you clean up after stump grinding?
We do not offer a clean-up service. In ten years the most we have done is rake the grindings into a pile and blow off hard surfaces. A proper clean-up needs a tipper truck and a loader, and we would rather put that time into grinding stumps.
What areas do you cover?
North Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast: the Moreton Bay region, the Sunshine Coast and Noosa, plus Brisbane's northern bayside suburbs. The service areas page lists every suburb.
