Stump Grinding & Removal in Jamaica

Fast, Clean Stump Grinding & Removal in Jamaica Plain

At Greenstar Tree, we provide efficient stump grinding and removal across Jamaica Plain and Suffolk County — from a single stump in the backyard to several left behind after tree work. Once a tree comes down, the leftover stump is more than an eyesore: it takes up space, sprouts new growth, attracts pests, and becomes a real trip hazard in your yard.


With 23 years of experience and state-of-the-art equipment, we grind stumps down below ground level, cleanly and efficiently. When you need the stump gone entirely, we can fully remove it — stump and roots — so nothing is left behind. Whether the stump is old and rotting or freshly cut, we clear it out and leave the ground level, tidy, and ready for whatever comes next — new grass, planting, or landscaping.

The Benefits of Professional Stump Grinding & Removal


Clearing out an old stump does more than tidy up your yard. Here’s what it does for your property:


Removes Trip Hazards – A leftover stump is easy to catch a foot on, especially hidden in the grass. Grinding it below the surface takes the danger away.


Stops the Stump Regrowing – Left alone, many stumps send up new shoots for years. Grinding through the base stops it from resprouting for good.


Gets Rid of Pests – Rotting stumps attract termites, ants, and other pests that can eventually move toward your home. Removing them takes that habitat away.


Reclaims Your Yard – A stump takes up space and dictates how you use your yard. Once it’s gone, that space is yours again.


Prepares the Ground for Replanting – With the stump cleared, the area is level and ready for new grass, plants, or a replacement tree.


Protects Your Equipment – Stumps and surface roots are hard on mower blades and yard tools. Clearing them makes maintenance smooth.


Leaves Your Yard Clean – We clear the grindings and debris too, leaving level, tidy ground behind.

What Does Stump Grinding Cost in Jamaica Plain?

Stump grinding and removal costs vary based on the diameter of the stump, how deep it needs to go, the spread of the roots, and how easily our equipment can reach it. A single small stump is a quick, affordable job, while multiple large stumps or a hard-to-reach location takes more time.


That’s why we provide free, no-obligation on-site estimates with affordable, competitive pricing — rather than a rough number over the phone. We’ll come out, look at the stump, and give you a clear quote that covers the full job: grinding or removal, debris cleanup, and site tidy-up.


Most stump grinding jobs are completed quickly and efficiently, and once it’s done your ground is level and ready to replant or landscape.

Tree Removal

“I have used Ben and his team for two projects: 1. a major tree removal off Boylston St. and 2. significant pruning of Maple trees over my house and over my neighbors houses. I found Ben and his team to be very professional and I like knowing I am supporting a local JP area business. Ben is very open and honest and provides options when issues arise. Overall, I found Greenstar Tree and Ben to be very knowledgeable about their craft, friendly and open and value driven. I thought they did a great job!”

Erick K.

Pruning & Trimming

“Ben and Will went above and beyond what I expected! Living in south boston i thought it was gonna be impossible to prune the tree in the back of my property due to the closed in nature of my house. It was amazing to see what they could do and how they managed to accomplish so much within such a confined area. I would give Greenstar tree 10 stars if possible and will be recommending them to all my neighbors here in southie! Thanks again Ben!”

Jeffrey F.

Cabling & Bracing

“Ben and Noah did amazing work at a fair price. I had multiple very tall trees in hard-to-access locations and on top of power lines that they trimmed back from my roof and siding. They were kind and professional and made sure to explain the work they would do and any advice on how to handle each of the trees in the future. I highly recommend and will be using Greenstar’s services moving forward.”

Nick M.

Tree Removal

“I had a great experience with Green Star Tree out of Jamaica Plain. Ben was able to schedule me almost immediately after our initial conversation for a tree that had fallen in my driveway onto two vehicles.
He was professional, efficient, and very reasonably priced. Ben went above and beyond, and Will was also fantastic—kind, helpful, and just as dedicated to getting the job done right.
They did an excellent job, and I will definitely be hiring them again for future work. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable tree work.

Deniqua L.

Pruning & Trimming

“I love working with Ben because he is super easy to deal with, wicked honest, and just an all around happy guy. He’s the most experienced tree guy I have ever met who is still working hard out there and I’ve been in the landscaping and tree industry for twenty six years myself !”

Andrew B.

Cabling & Bracing

“Ben and Bertram did a wonderful job for us. The hard to reach branches of our oak were expertly pruned and our very large dead cherry was removed. All the wood was hauled away and they left our yard in grade a condition. Also, Ben took the time to explain why he pruned in the manner he did. His expertise was very helpful throughout.”

Makeit G.

Pruning & Trimming

“Greenstar tree did an excellent job pruning several trees in my yard including my beloved red bud. Ben and his crew are incredibly hard working. They took great care to protect my perennial garden and offered excellent advice on what should be pruned, removed, and maintained. We are very pleased.”

Kate C.

Cabling & Bracing

Five Stars! The Greenstar team offers high-quality, highly responsive, expert and professional services. We have towering hemlocks in our backyard and love how they make our yard feel like a secret garden. Ben was highly knowledgeable and took great care to balance the need to prune for vigorous health and preserve tree cover in the canopy. He also expertly tackled some other trees that have grown sideways over the years. Ben is a true pro! We felt our trees were in great hands and highly recommend Greenstar.

How much does stump grinding cost?

The cost depends on the stump’s diameter, depth, and how easily we can access it. We offer free, personalized estimates for every customer — contact us today for a no-obligation quote.

What’s the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?

Grinding reduces the stump below the surface so it won’t resprout and clears the way for replanting. Full removal takes out the stump and roots entirely. We’ll help you decide which is right for your yard.

How deep do you grind a stump?

We grind stumps below ground level — deep enough to stop regrowth and clear the way for replanting.

Will the stump grow back after grinding?

No. By grinding through the base of the stump, we stop it from resprouting, so you won’t see new shoots return.

Do you provide 24/7 emergency service?

Yes. We’re open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so we’re here whenever a storm or hazardous tree can’t wait.

Do you clean up the grindings afterward?

Yes. We clear away the grindings and debris, leaving your yard level and tidy.

Why should I choose Greenstar Tree?

We’re committed to safe work, honest pricing, and reliable communication — delivering high-quality tree care that protects your property and improves your landscape.
