Stump grinding and full stump extraction for residential and commercial properties throughout Augusta and the CSRA. Georgia pine stumps, hardwoods, old root systems — removed and hauled off clean. Free on-site estimates.
Stumps left in the ground after tree removal are more than an eyesore — they're a hazard for equipment, a barrier to construction and landscaping, and an ongoing invitation for termites and wood rot. EVO Clear & Grade removes stumps throughout Augusta, GA and the surrounding CSRA counties, leaving your property clean and usable.
Georgia pine stumps — loblolly and longleaf — are among the most common stump removal jobs we see in the Augusta area. These trees develop wide, shallow lateral root systems that spread well beyond the visible stump. We handle them with purpose-built grinding equipment for stump grinding, or with tracked excavators for full root ball extraction when the application demands it.
Hardwood stumps — oaks, sweetgum, and hickory common to the CSRA — are denser and often have deeper taproots. We assess each stump type and recommend the right approach for your situation and budget. Every stump removal job starts with a free on-site estimate.
Purpose-built grinders reduce stumps to wood chips below grade — typically 8–12 inches down. Faster and lower cost than full extraction. Right for landscaping, lawn areas, and non-construction applications.
Excavator-based full extraction pulls the entire stump and root ball from the ground. Right for construction areas where a foundation, slab, or significant grading will occur over the stump location.
Multiple stumps on one property priced at a discount. Whether you have 3 stumps left from last year's tree service or 30 stumps from a full lot clearing, we handle the entire job in one mobilization.
All stump grindings, wood chips, and extracted material hauled off your property. No chip piles left on-site. Clean property when we're done.
Both methods work — the right choice depends on what you're doing with the area afterward.
We come out, count and assess each stump — size, species, condition, and what's planned for the area afterward. We recommend grinding vs. full extraction based on your needs and give you a clear price for the complete job.
We bring the right equipment for your job — grinder or excavator — and work through every stump on the property. Multiple stumps on one visit maximize value. Georgia pine root systems and dense hardwood stumps are handled with equipment sized for the job.
All material hauled off. No chip piles, no extracted roots left on-site. Your property is clean and the area where the stumps were is ready for lawn establishment, landscaping, or construction.

Straight answers about stump removal from your Augusta crew.
Stump removal in Augusta typically runs $150–$500+ per stump for grinding, depending on stump diameter, species, and accessibility. Multiple stumps on the same job are priced at a discount — it's almost always more cost-effective to do all your stumps in one visit than separate service calls. Full stump extraction costs more than grinding. Call (706) 360-6627 for a free on-site estimate.
Stump grinding uses a specialized machine to grind the stump down 8–12 inches below grade, reducing it to wood chips. The root system remains in the ground and decomposes over time. Full stump removal (extraction) uses an excavator to pull the entire stump and root ball out of the ground. Grinding is faster, lower cost, and fine for landscaping. Full extraction is recommended when a foundation, slab, or significant grading will occur over the stump location.
Yes — Georgia pine stumps are one of the most common stump removal jobs in the Augusta area. Loblolly and longleaf pine stumps develop wide, shallow lateral root systems that spread considerably farther than the visible stump. We handle pine stumps with grinders sized for the job. For construction areas, we can do full excavation to remove the root ball completely so there are no buried organics under your slab or foundation.
Yes — all stump material is hauled off on every job. Wood chip grindings, extracted root balls, and all debris removed from your property. We don't leave chip piles on-site. If you'd like the wood chips left for mulch, just let us know during the estimate and we can discuss options.
Standard stump grinding typically goes 8–12 inches below existing grade. This is sufficient for most lawn, landscaping, and general property cleanup purposes — the remaining root system will decompose naturally over time. For areas where concrete, a foundation, or significant grading will occur over the stump location, we recommend full extraction rather than grinding to avoid subsurface voids as the root material decomposes.
