Here is how we handle every stump grinding project in Rupert.
Our Rupert 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 Rupert. 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 Rupert 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.

"Good experience overall with B. Haney and Sons. They pruned our front-yard oak and trimmed back the maples that were rubbing on the roof. Office took a couple of follow-ups to schedule, but the field crew was top-notch and the work was done right. Trees look great."
"Solid tree service experience. Two trees removed, two pruned, all stumps ground. Work was professional and the cleanup was good. The estimate-to-schedule timeline was longer than I expected but the actual day-of work was efficient and well-executed."
"B. Haney and Sons did a tree transplant for us — moved a young Japanese maple from one part of the yard to a better spot. The tree came through the move in great shape and is leafing out beautifully this spring. Real arborist work, not just chainsaw work."
