Stump Grinding
-
JJI Tree Service provides professional stump grinding services for residential and commercial properties throughout Redwood City and the Peninsula. Stump grinding is the process of removing a tree stump by grinding it approximately 12–15 inches below ground level, allowing the area to be safely restored and reused. Grinding the stump below grade helps eliminate unsightly stumps, improves the appearance of your landscape, and creates space for new grass, plants, trees, landscaping, or future construction projects.
Stump grinding is highly recommended for homeowners who plan to replant a tree in the same location or redesign their landscape. Removing old stumps also helps eliminate potential tripping hazards, improves lawn accessibility, and prevents obstacles for future landscaping or construction work. In many cases, stump grinding is necessary before installing fences, patios, driveways, irrigation systems, or building additions.
Our experienced team uses professional stump grinding equipment capable of handling both large and small stumps safely and efficiently. JJI Tree Service has multiple stump grinders designed to fit through narrow side yards, gates, and tight backyard access areas, allowing us to reach difficult locations that larger equipment cannot access. Whether you need a single stump removed or multiple large stumps ground down, we provide reliable, affordable, and thorough stump grinding services with complete cleanup available.

JJI Tree Service prioritizes safety on every project, which is why we always coordinate underground utility locating before performing any stump grinding, excavation, or underground work. Calling 811 is an important safety step that helps identify underground utility lines such as gas, water, sewer, electrical, and communication lines before digging begins. Proper utility locating helps prevent dangerous accidents, service interruptions, property damage, and costly repairs.
For the convenience and safety of our clients, JJI Tree Service handles the entire 811 utility locating process prior to conducting underground work. Our team works to ensure all required underground utilities are properly marked and that all work is performed safely, responsibly, and in compliance with local city codes and regulations. Because utility requirements and permit procedures can vary from city to city throughout the Peninsula, our experienced team helps streamline the process and ensures every project is completed with safety and professionalism as the top priority.
