Rochester’s talking about our stump grinding services

"After getting the run around from other tree companies, I called Brongos tree service for a quote. The pricing was unbelievably fair. The work was completed on time even after I added 3 additional trees. Josh's crew was very professional, his equipment was very nice, and the crew operated like a smooth running machine. I will recommend them to everyone who needs tree service. 10 out of 5 stats."

Erik Holtz

"Highly recommend Brongo’s Tree Service. We had a huge ash tree, which I was very sad to lose but didn’t want on my roof, removed. The crew of 4 or 5 guys came in and worked non stop that first day just to get the branches off. Clean up was continual. They came back another day to remove the logs and completely rake the area. Took the rest of the tree down and ground the stump. Stake outs with utilities were coordinated in advance. Every one of the workers was considerate of my driveway, yard and my access in and out. Total professionalism in their jobs."

Judie Vleck

"They did a fantastic job cutting down a tree in my backyard, did the stump grinding, and cleaned and removed all debris. Will definitely use for any future work."

Brandon

"Highly recommended! With a 60-foot pine tree uprooting and ready to fall on our house, Josh Brongo answered our call, even at 10 PM. They were extremely responsive, shifting their schedules to be there when we needed them most. Very considerate, professional, and quick. Problem averted! I couldn’t be happier with the results and the peace of mind they provided."

Dave S

"Highly recommend Josh and his crew. Very professional, courteous, and on time. Trimmed some trees in a quick timely fashion, and my yard looked better after cleanup than it did when they got here."

Parker Driggs

"Josh, Rob and Brian were on time both days. Brought all the right equipment. Very efficient and worked very well together. Worked a full day with no lunch. They cleaned up area as they worked and when they finished the only thing that you would have noticed that was different was my 120ft tall tree was gone and the yard looked the same like they never were there. Would highly recommend Thanks again to Brongo Tree Service"

Phillip Cichetti

RONALD RAHN

"I cannot say enough how happy we are with the services we received. We had 2 very large trees removed and the stumps ground. The cost was very fair, everyone was extremely friendly and very respectful of our property. Highly recommend you use them!"

Frequently asked questions

  • Does stump grinding remove the entire stump?

    No, grinding the stump doesn’t remove it entirely. Instead, the bulk of the stump is worn away, and we fill the hole with soil. The parts of the stump that remain below the surface eventually decompose.

  • Why is stump grinding better than stump removal?

    Removing a stump entirely is difficult and takes hours (sometimes days!) of labor. Paying for that service would be prohibitively expensive for most homeowners.


    Stump grinding is more effective because it’s more efficient. Grinding is relatively quick work, and the remaining parts of the stump can decompose beneath the soil, leaving beneficial nutrients as they do.

  • What do you do with the saw dust from stump grinding?

    Chips and saw dust left over from stump grinding are ideal for compost bins, mulching garden beds, creating paths in a garden, or as a base layer for new landscaping projects.

  • Are your stump grinding services insured?

    Stump grinding requires heavy, specialist equipment, and it can be dangerous. Our crew are well-trained and fully insured.
