HOW PHOTO ESTIMATES WORK
SHOW THE STUMP, PROJECT FOOTPRINT AND ACCESS.
- Full stump and widest root-flare measurement
- Visible roots and proposed construction area
- Gate, driveway, turns, slopes and equipment route
- Nearby structures, concrete, pools, utilities and irrigation
- Project drawings or marked work area when available
- ZIP code and required final condition
Photos may establish an initial scope, but excavation or construction-related work can require onsite verification.

FAQ
STUMP REMOVAL QUESTIONS
When is full removal more appropriate than grinding?
When foundations, utilities, excavation, pools or major construction require the root crown to be removed rather than left underground.
Does full removal disturb more of the yard?
Usually. Excavation creates a larger work area and often requires backfill, compaction and restoration.
Can the scope be estimated from photos?
Photos can help establish the likely work, but construction and excavation conditions may still require onsite verification.
