Stump Grinding | Canterbury Treeworks

Affordable stump removal

Left with an unwanted tree stump? We can arrange professional stump grinding at a competitive rate, leaving you with a clear space to get your garden or landscaping project underway.

Stump grinding removes the remaining stump below ground level, making it easier to fill the area with soil, lay lawn, replant or prepare the space for something new. It also helps prevent the stump from regrowing, depending on the tree species.

Tree removal and stump grinding

Having a tree removed? It’s often easiest to take care of the stump at the same time. Let us know during your site visit, and we can assess the stump and arrange grinding as part of the job.

Already have an old stump left behind from a tree that came down years ago? No problem. We can arrange stump grinding as a standalone service, too.

We provide tree removal and stump grinding services throughout Christchurch City.

Also his attitude is very friendly. We are very happy with his job. We have not much hesitant for recommending him to my friends if they look for reasonably priced nice mannered and skillful  arborists.

Matt and his team have been cutting our hedges and trees for a while now and we have been super impressed with all the work they do , the hedges have never looked so neat and tidy and they leave the place clean and tidy when they've  finished , we would highly recommend them for any tree work or hedge cutting.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great team, great workmanship and great price. We had them trim back a very large and tall oak tree away from our house and a number of other trees cut down and cleared away. Canterbury TreeWorks arrived on time and got right into it. They cleaned up all the debris and left the garden in tip top shape. Would happily recommend and use again in future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt was asked to quote for the removal of two very large trees and some general pruning. His rate was very competitive, and the job was expertly completed. He and his team were a pleasure to deal with and left our garden in a pristine state. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt & Josh did an awesome job of lowering and shaping our confer that was blocking our solar panels. Matt is pleasant to deal with and is a great communicator. He is mindful of surroundings when working and is very knowlegeable.  We will definitely get the team back to trim our shared driveway. Highly recommended.

Yes, we can arrange it as part of the same job. It may be completed on a different day however, it depends what time of day the removal is completed.
