A clear, professional approach to stump grinding — tailored to your Geff property.
Our Geff grinder operator assesses each stump — size, root spread, access constraints, underground utilities (we always check) — before bringing in the right machine for the job.
B. Haney and Sons Arborists confirms underground utilities are properly marked before grinding any stump in Geff. We will not grind blind, regardless of how routine the stump looks — that is how serious accidents happen.
We grind the stump 6 to 12 inches below grade — deeper if you plan to replant in the same spot, shallower if you just need to mow over the area.
Our Geff crew rakes the stump chips, removes excess if requested, and back-fills the grinding hole. The site is left clean and ready for whatever surface treatment you have planned.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Hired them for a tree disease treatment after we noticed yellowing leaves on our birches. The arborist diagnosed the issue, recommended a treatment plan, and the trees recovered beautifully. They could have pushed unnecessary treatments — they did not."
"Called for emergency tree service after a big limb came down on our shed. Crew was here within three hours, removed the limb, cleaned up all the debris, and did not even charge us extra for the after-hours call. That is integrity right there."
"B. Haney crew did emergency work after a major storm dropped a huge oak across our driveway. Got there within two hours of my call, brought a crane, and had everything cleared and the stump ground by dinnertime. Honest pricing, professional crew, no surprises."
