Complete Stump Extraction: The Solution for Deep Roots
Complete Stump Extraction: The Solution for Deep Roots
When it comes to stumps, "out of sight" isn't always "out of mind." If you need that ground back for landscaping, replanting, or building, the entire root mass must go. While traditional high-speed grinders only scratch the surface, our specialized extraction methods guarantee complete stump removal, regardless of size, depth, or species.

Before any "ground-breaking" begins, Michigan law requires that all underground utility lines are located and marked. If your project is near a home, roadway, or known utilities, MISS DIG must be contacted at least three full working daysbefore we arrive on-site.

Our versatile powerhouse used for:
Small Diameter Trees: Extracted quickly with just a few scoops.
New Tree Preparation: We can remove the old roots and perfectly prep the new planting hole in a single step—saving you extensive manual labor.

Complete Extraction (Our Way)
Complete Extraction (Our Way)
Approach: Uses specialized Stump Ex or Backhoe to extract the entire stump and root mass.
The Result: The ground is cleared to full depth.
Replanting? Yes! The soil is ready for immediate replanting of trees, grass, or landscaping.
Specialization: We are often called in to remove the buried mess that a traditional grinder left behind!
Traditional Grinding (The Other Guys)
Traditional Grinding (The Other Guys)
Approach: High-speed wheel that "shaves" the surface.
The Result: Leaves a "buried block" of wood just 3-6 inches underground.
The Problem: The remaining wood prevents healthy new growth and eventually rots, creating a localized sinkhole.
Note: Many quotes say they go 6" deep, but in reality, they often only reach 2-3", making the area difficult to regrow.
