Inside a Durham Stump Removal Bid
In Durham, the scope behind the number matters. The grindings usually stay as backfill mulch; hauling them and adding topsoil for a sod-ready finish costs more. Multiple stumps usually earn a volume discount once the machine is already on the trailer.
Utility lines can run under old stumps, so crews call for a utility locate before grinding deep. A stump grinder chews the stump into mulch well below grade; grind depth, commonly 6 to 12 inches, sets the finish.
