Why Redmond Properties Need Specialized Stump Grinding
Redmond has some of the most tree-dense residential areas in King County. Many neighborhoods were developed on naturally wooded lots filled with:
– Douglas fir
– Western red cedar
– Alder
– Bigleaf maple
– Hemlock
Because of Redmond’s clay and compacted glacial till soils, stumps and roots often sit firmly locked into the ground. This requires:
– Deeper grinding (12–14 inches)
– Lateral root tracking
– Careful chip management
– Property-safe equipment maneuvering
Older neighborhoods like Idylwood, Education Hill, and Downtown Redmond often have mature, wide-diameter stumps, while newer developments like Redmond Ridge and Novelty Hill have tighter yard access and HOA expectations.

EXCELLENT Based on 68 reviews Posted on Rachel BurkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert was responsive, efficient, personable and a great value. He did an excellent job and we are satisfied customers.Posted on Brian SullivanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert grinded down two large Douglas Fir tree stumps in my side yard. I am an experienced builder and landscaper, and I must say that Robert's work is top-of-the-line and I would use him again any chance I had!!!! He came out immediately to provide a bid. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and explained the work thoroughly. His bid was very competitive and reflected the work that was actually needed. After accepting his bid, Robert was quick to schedule the work and kept me up to speed on the overall timing. Once on the site, he took extra care to protect the existing landscaping. He then proceeded to grind down the stumps carefully while chasing all of the major roots. Excellent job. I recommend to everyone. (High praise from someone like me who is a perfectionist when it comes to building and yard work!)Posted on Jennifer ParkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert was great. He was responsive, got out to us the next day, was fairly priced, and I’m sure glad I could support his business. He went above and beyond and helped us with a couple other things. I would definitely share his info and call him again for future needs.Posted on Shay GregTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
