Prices

Prices on this site, including the estimator, are ballparks worked out from the sizes you enter: about $3 an inch across the stump, with a $125 minimum per visit. They are not quotes. We confirm a firm price from a photo or a look at the job before any work starts.

Photos and video

The photos and the video clip on this site are openly licensed images from Wikimedia Commons. They show stump grinding and the area around Seneca; they are not pictures of our own jobs. Each one is credited below with its creator, its licence and a link to its source.

Some photos were cropped to fit the layout. Photos under a CC BY-SA licence remain under that licence in their cropped form.
