Stump grinding in Dunfermline

Access is the main variable for stump grinding in Dunfermline — gardens around the Abbey and Heritage Quarter can mean a narrow close or wynd to get the grinder through, while the newer estates on the town's edges usually have straightforward driveway access.

We grind below ground level so the area's ready for turf, planting or paving, whichever part of town the job is in.

Left in the ground, a stump mostly just gets in the way — of mowing, planting or using that part of the garden. Grinding takes it down below ground level, which is a much smaller job than digging the whole root system out.
