The problem
A homeowner in Etobicoke had two jobs stuck on the "someday" list:
Job #1. An overgrown cedar hedge and brush had swallowed a corner of the yard.
Job #2. An old stump sat high out of the ground – impossible to mow around.
They wanted the corner back, and the stump gone for good, without their lawn getting torn up in the process.
How we did it
- Checked before we cut. We walked the site and probed the base of the stump for hidden rocks and metal – the stuff that wrecks lawns and grinder teeth if you miss it.
- Cleared the corner. Overgrown brush removed and the cedar hedge line squared back to a clean edge.
- Ground it out below grade. The stump was ground well below the surface, leaving the spot ready for topsoil, leveling, sodding, or planting.
The result
- An unusable, overgrown corner is now open, clean ground.
- Lawn left fully intact – no ruts, no mess.
- The site was cleaned up and prepared for topsoil, sod, or planting.
- Start to finish: one afternoon.
“We had an overgrown corner and an old stump we'd basically given up on. The Tree Doctors crew cleared the whole hedge line and ground the stump right out in one afternoon – and left the yard cleaner than they found it. Really happy with it.” - Homeowner, Etobicoke
