Stump Removal in Castleton, VT
John Trombley Construction removes stumps across Castleton, Rutland, Middlebury, Lake George, and the surrounding area — leftovers from a tree job you had done, or old stumps that have been in the lawn for years.
The stump and the root ball come out whole. Nothing stays in the ground to rot, settle, or send up suckers, and the spot is clear for building, paving, or seeding straight over.
We're family owned and operated, and every estimate is free with no pressure to book on the spot.

What Stump Removal Involves
Stump & Root Ball Out
The whole stump comes out, roots and all, so the ground is clear the whole way down instead of holding a rotting root system you'll hit later.
Old Stumps & Leftovers
Stumps left behind by another crew, and ones that have been in the lawn long enough to feel like part of it. Age doesn't change the job much.
Backfill & Cleanup
Debris cleared, the hole backfilled and leveled, and the area left ready to seed rather than left as an open pit.

Why Stumps Are Worth Getting Out
A stump left in the ground is more than an eyesore. It's a mowing hazard, it can send up suckers for years, and as it rots it leaves a soft, settling low spot in the lawn.
It also rules out that ground for anything you might want to build, pave, or dig through later. If there's any chance you'll need that spot, taking the roots out now is far easier than working around them afterward.

CastletonFrequently Asked Questions
It comes down to the size of the stump and how easy it is to get equipment to it. We'll take a look and give you a free, straightforward estimate.
Yes. We clear the debris, backfill, and level the area so it's ready to seed. We don't leave you with an open hole.
Absolutely. Plenty of our stump work is cleaning up after a removal somebody else did, or clearing stumps that have been sitting for years.
Pulling a root ball disturbs the ground around it, and how far that runs depends on the tree and the soil. We'll tell you what to expect before we start, then backfill and level so the spot is ready to seed.
