Professional Stump Removal & Grinding in Cape Town
Left behind after tree felling, stumps are unsightly, take up valuable space, and can attract pests and fungal growth. DC Tree Felling provides fast, thorough stump removal and grinding services across Cape Town and the surrounding areas.
Â
We use powerful mechanical stump grinders to reduce stumps to wood chips below the surface — leaving your ground level, clean and ready for whatever comes next: new planting, paving, turf or construction.
Why Remove a Tree Stump?
- Stumps are a tripping hazard, especially for children
- They attract termites, ants and wood-boring beetles
- Old stumps can harbour fungal disease that spreads to other plants
- They take up space and reduce the visual appeal of your garden
- Roots may continue to grow and damage paving or foundations
- New tree growth (coppicing) from old stumps can be persistent and difficult to control
Our Stump Removal Method
We use professional-grade stump grinders to mechanically reduce stumps to 200–300mm below ground level. The resulting wood chip mulch can be used as garden compost or removed entirely from site — your choice.
Â
For larger stumps or those with extensive root systems, we may also extract key surface roots to prevent regrowth and reduce future subsidence risk.
