Tree Stump Removal Services in the Twin Cities
Tree removals can often leave behind unsightly stumps, especially if the tree was removed quickly to avoid damage to the home or property. But leaving a tree stump in place does more than make your yard look less attractive — it can damage lawnmowers and yard equipment, attract pests like carpenter ants, or even cause injuries as people trip and fall over the stump. That’s why Bratt Tree Company recommends stump clearing at the same time as the tree is removed.

Types of Stump Removal
Our team will remove the tree using the best methods for the circumstances, such as the following:
- Grinding: One of the most effective methods, stump grinding is especially useful for larger stumps. Specialized grinding blades are used to shred the stump layer by layer, turning it into mulch that can benefit your landscaping.
- Digging: When the tree is smaller, the stump can be dug out using a combination of heavy equipment and shovel work, cutting any roots that extend laterally below the surface. If the tree is too close to a structure, digging it out may not be an option.
- Burning: Fire or chemicals can be used to burn or break down the stump, allowing any remnants to be easily removed. A fire should only be used in relatively open areas.
Common Reasons for Stump Removal
An old, rotten tree stump in the yard can be a nuisance and an eyesore. Here are a few common reasons that homeowners may opt for stump removal:
- To make the yard look better and increase curb appeal.
