Stump Grinding

That old stump has been sitting there long enough — let's get rid of it for good.

A stump left in your yard is more than an eyesore. It takes up usable space, creates a tripping hazard, and can attract insects over time. At Scott's Stump Grinding, the approach has always been simple — get the stump out cleanly, leave the yard level, and make sure you're happy with the result before packing up. Scotty has been doing this work in Metairie and the surrounding New Orleans area for over 20 years. That means your yard gets handled by someone who has seen every stump type, soil condition, and access challenge this area has to offer.

No two jobs are exactly the same. Some stumps sit wide open in the middle of a backyard. Others are wedged against a fence, close to a foundation, or surrounded by landscaping you want protected. Scott's carries equipment capable of handling stumps of all sizes — from small ornamentals to the large oaks and cypress trees common throughout Louisiana. The grinding goes well below the surface so the area is left truly clean, not just partially dealt with. Whether you have one stump or a dozen, the job gets assessed properly and executed with the right technique every time.

When Scott's is done, your yard is ready for whatever comes next — whether that's new sod, a landscaping project, a concrete pour, or simply having open space back again. The debris is managed, the area is leveled, and there is nothing left behind for you to deal with. If you are in Metairie, Kenner, Harahan, River Ridge, or anywhere in the greater New Orleans metro and have a stump that needs to go, call (504) 450-5596 for a free estimate. Scott will give you a straight answer on price and get the job on the schedule.
