Why Crystal Homeowners Choose ByeBye Stumps

Crystal is a different kind of stump-grinding city from the new-construction exurbs. The housing stock is mid-century, post-war ramblers and one-and-a-half-story homes, mostly built between 1947 and 1965. The trees are correspondingly old. Boulevard silver maples planted with the original subdivisions are now seventy-plus years old and shedding limbs. The ash trees are coming down for emerald ash borer at a steady pace. Most Crystal homeowners do not have one stump, they have three, four, or five, accumulated over the last several years of one-tree-at-a-time removals.

We price multi-stump work differently from single-stump. Setup, drive time, and equipment positioning are the same whether we grind one or eight, so per-stump cost drops sharply once we are on-site. Five-plus stumps gets a volume rate. Most Crystal yards we visit have at least three stumps once we walk the lot, front yard, back yard, and the one along the property line that the homeowner forgot about.

Established Neighborhoods with Mature Canopy

Crystal's neighborhoods, Welcome Park up by the northwest edge, Bassett Creek in the south, Twin Lakes around the lakes of the same name, Forest, Brownwood, Parkside Acres, Valley Place, all share the same basic story: post-war street grids, mid-century homes, mature canopy. The original subdivision-era trees are at or past the end of their useful life. Add EAB taking out the ash population, and most blocks in Crystal have lost two to four trees per year for the last decade. The stumps stack up. We grind them.

Two Questions Crystal Customers Ask

My yard is small and the side gate is narrow. Can your equipment fit?

Often it can. The self-propelled grinder narrows to about 36 inches and handles Crystal's typical 60-foot-wide post-war lots well, but a tight angle or a slope at the gate can be the limiting factor, so we don't promise it sight unseen. Send a photo of the gate and we will confirm before we book.

Are you doing a lot of emerald ash borer (EAB) work in Crystal right now?

Yes, it is one of the most common jobs we do here. The city has been losing ash steadily for the last several years. We grind both city-removal stumps (where the city took the boulevard tree) and private-yard ash that homeowners had taken down.
