It’s quite easy to forget that after having a tree removed, it’s not the end of the process, as you will still have a stump to deal with.
Depending on the size of the tree, the stump can be sizeable and cause you a number of issues such as attracting unwanted pests and diseases to your garden and/or possible obstruction to your landscaping plans.
After your tree removal, you may be worried about the stump grinding cost, but A1 Sure Services ensures that we provide the most competitive quote to get rid of your tree stump and roots.
Both large and small stumps can cause problems on your property if they are not efficiently removed. Pests, diseases, and infestation can still occur even though your tree has been removed down to the stump. A1 Sure Services has access to state-of-the-art arborist equipment that can swiftly grind or remove tree stumps on your residential or commercial property at an affordable price.
A1 Sure Services has provided professional and competitive stump grinding and tree trunk removal services to homes and businesses across Auckland for over 20 years.
Our range of purpose-built stump grinding machines will remove your unsightly tree stumps so you can replant, re-turf or even continue with your project to develop on your property.

Both get the stump out of your way. Which one suits you depends on what you want to do with the ground afterwards – we’ll tell you which we’d recommend at the free inspection.
It depends on the diameter of the stump, how deep the roots run and how easily we can get a machine to it. We quote on site for free, so you know the price before we start. Grinding is usually the cheaper of the two options.
Grinding chips the stump down below ground level and leaves the root system in place. Removal takes out the stump and the main roots, which leaves a larger hole but a completely clear site. Grinding suits most gardens; removal suits building and landscaping work.
Usually 150-300mm below ground level, which is enough to re-turf or replant over the top. If you are laying a driveway or building over it, tell us at the inspection and we will go deeper.
You are welcome to keep it - a ground stump makes good mulch for garden beds. If you would rather not, we take it away as part of the clean-up and leave the site tidy.
Yes. We run a range of purpose-built machines, including narrow-access grinders that fit through a standard gate, so most back sections are no problem. Send us a photo or we will take a look at the free inspection.

We had 3 large palms cut down in our garden, all in very tight spaces. George and the team at A1 Sure Services did an excellent job. They did a thoroughly professional job in trying weather conditions. Their pricing was very competitive.
The team at A1 arrived on time and did a great job removing a large gum tree at the front of my house. They managed to carefully dismantle it without any damage to my property and they left the place spotless.
I’m really impressed with their tree trimming service. The team was incredibly hard working, using excellent technology to safely take down a large tree in difficult locations. They were professional, efficient, and reasonably priced.
We had two large Phoenix Palms that needed trimming. The communication was so prompt. The boys turned up on time and were very polite, friendly and told me exactly what they were going to do. They cleaned up brilliantly, over and above what I expected. Not to mention, they were one of the lowest quotes we received.
I highly recommend this company for any tree/hedge work you need doing. They did an excellent job on our overgrown hedge and we use them regularly - prompt, tidy, competitively priced and good customer service.
Brilliant service - really impressed with price quoted and follow up service. Would be best tree removal contractor that we have used in over 20 years.
The tree removal guys were fantastic. Very efficient, good communication, and great service overall!
