 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 7/14/26 - We hired Clean Green Tree Services to remove a fallen branch from our yard.  The team was very efficient and was able to get us on their schedule the next day.   While there, Stefanie Moy Zobus left a 1 star review was not part of this service request. She left the review unfairly before Clean Green could begin their work.  We were very happy with the work completed in a timely manner and wish everyone to disregard that review as it was not a fair assessment of this company's service. I would not hesitate to use this service again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were beyond pleased with Clean Green Tree Service. Initially, when requesting a quote, Eric came to the house within 48 hours to provide an estimate. We were then put on the schedule and the work was completed within one week. He provided a crew of four workers: he did the trimming and the other three workers were meticulous about picking up all of the dead branches twigs and leaves. We would definitely recommend them without reservation.

Competitive And Affordable Pricing

Proper Depth Stump Grinding

We grind 6-12 inches below ground level as standard. This depth allows grass growth and prevents regrowth while protecting underground utilities from damage.

How Do We Safely Remove Tree Stumps?

Every job follows our safety-first process. We protect your property, utilities, and surrounding landscape throughout the entire removal.

Professional Assessment

Our tree surgeon inspects your stump and the surrounding area. We locate underground utilities, identify obstacles, and plan the safest grinding approach for your property.

Site Preparation

We clear rocks, debris, and obstacles around the stump. This preparation protects our equipment and prevents flying debris from damaging your home or vehicles.

Safely Grinding the Stump

We grind down tree stumps systematically using commercial equipment. Our controlled grinding creates uniform wood chips and removes the stump completely below ground level.

After Work Cleanup

We rake wood chips into piles for mulch or haul them away. Then we backfill stump holes with soil and leave your yard clean.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to grind a stump in Monticello?

The cost for grinding stumps runs $100-$300 per stump on average. Small stumps under 12 inches cost $100-$150, medium stumps 12-24 inches run $150-$250, while large stumps over 24 inches start at $250 and increase with size.

Is stump grinding worth the cost?

Yes, stump grinding service in Monticello prevents multiple problems and adds property value. Stumps attract termites, carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles that spread to healthy trees. They create tripping hazards for children and guests. Mowing around stumps wastes time and damages equipment blades. The improved appearance and safety justify the investment.

Can I grind a stump myself?

You can rent equipment, but professional stump grinding delivers better results safely. Rental grinders lack power for large stumps or tough hardwoods like oak. Underground utilities create serious injury and property damage risks without proper location equipment. Our trained professionals complete jobs faster with commercial equipment and handle tree root removal properly.
