Stump Grinding in Vancouver
City of Vancouver lots are often narrow, with side gates and lane access. We bring compact equipment suited to tight city yards.
Stump grinding and removal in Vancouver
Stump Doctor provides stump grinding and stump removal for Vancouver homeowners, stratas and businesses.
Narrow lots and side gates
Many Vancouver backyards are only reachable through a narrow side gate or from the lane. Measure your narrowest access point and include it in your quote request.
Laneway and garden suite builds
Old stumps often need to go before a laneway house, garage or garden project. Grinding clears the surface quickly so the next trade can get started.
Boulevard and city trees
Trees on city boulevards are managed by the City of Vancouver. We grind stumps on private property — contact the City for stumps on public land.

Kitsilano, Dunbar, Kerrisdale, Point Grey, East Vancouver, Mount Pleasant, Killarney, Marpole and surrounding areas.
Vancouver stump grinding FAQs
Do I need a permit in Vancouver?
The City of Vancouver regulates tree removal on private property. Grinding a stump that's already cut generally isn't the issue, but check the City's tree rules if a tree still needs to come down.
How narrow a gate can you fit through?
It depends on the machine available for your job. Send us your gate width and we'll confirm.
