WHAT MAKES OUR SERVICE DIFFERENT
Unlike general tree services that treat stump removal as an afterthought, we specialise in professional tree and stump services. This means we offer:
- Heavy-duty commercial equipment (not hire machines)
- Stumps and trees removed properly the first time
- Faster job completion with better results
- Experienced operators familiar with every type of stump, tree, and access situation
IDEAL FOR
- Residential properties preparing for landscaping
- Pool and shed installation sites
- Dairy farms and agricultural properties
- Commercial developments and subdivisions
- Property sales requiring clean presentation
- Hazardous stumps or trees creating safety or pest issues
DIFFICULT ACCESS TREE & STUMP REMOVAL
Some stumps or trees are hard to reach—through gates, over retaining walls, or in tight courtyards. We have compact equipment that can access areas other operators can’t.
LARGE COMMERCIAL & FARM TREES AND STUMPS
Large gum trees, pines, and hardwoods over 1 metre require serious equipment and experience. We handle commercial-scale jobs that smaller operators can’t tackle.
STUMP POISONING
Can’t access a stump with equipment? We can treat stumps with registered chemicals to kill regrowth and gradually decompose the stump naturally.

OUR TREE & STUMP REMOVAL PROCESS
Quote & Planning
We assess your tree or stump via phone with photos, or arrange an on-site visit for complex jobs. We discuss depth requirements, access considerations, and any special requests, such as keeping wood chips for mulch.
Pre-Work Preparation
Mark any known underground utilities (we also use detection equipment), Clear toys, furniture, and obstacles from the work area, Ensure vehicle and equipment access, Secure pets indoors.
Site Setup
Protective mats are laid to prevent lawn and hard surface damage. We perform final utility checks with electronic detection and confirm grinding depth and cleanup requirements.
Tree & Stump Grinding
Using our commercial-grade equipment, we systematically grind the stump and major root system to the specified depth (30 cm standard). Most single stumps take 30–90 minutes depending on size and hardness.
Cleanup & Finishing
We rake out wood chips, remove debris to our truck, supply fill dirt if requested, level the area, and perform a final site inspection with you.
Site Restoration
The ground settles over 2–4 weeks. We provide guidance on when to add more fill dirt and how long to wait before turfing, planting, or building.
PROFESSIONAL-GRADE EQUIPMENT FOR SUPERIOR RESULTS
We don’t use cheap hire equipment. Our commercial stump grinders are heavy-duty machines designed for daily professional use, delivering faster grinding, cleaner results, and the ability to handle any size stump – from small garden stumps to massive farm gum trees.
PRIMARY GRINDER
- Grinds stumps up to 2+ metres diameter
- 30+ horsepower diesel engine
- Precision cutting teeth that slice through hardwood
- Track or wheel system for property protection
COMPACT ACCESS GRINDER
- 80cm width for narrow access
- Grinds stumps up to 60cm diameter
- Perfect for courtyards and tight spaces
- Lightweight but powerful
WHY EQUIPMENT MATTERS?
Cheap hire grinders take 3-4 times longer, often can’t handle hardwood stumps properly, and may require multiple visits. Professional equipment means we complete your job properly in one visit.
OUR SERVICE GUARANTEE
We stand behind our work with three simple promises
PROPERTY PROTECTION GUARANTEE
If our equipment damages your lawn, driveway, paths, or garden beds, we repair or replace it at our expense. No arguments, no excuses.
COMPLETE REMOVAL GUARANTEE
We remove trees and grind stumps to the specified depth (30 cm standard), eliminating all visible stump and major roots. If you’re not satisfied with the removal, we’ll come back and fix it free of charge.
CLEANUP GUARANTEE
We leave your property cleaner than we found it. If any debris is missed or a mess is left behind, one phone call and we’ll return to make it right.
That’s the Rob Jamieson difference—professional tree and stump services backed by a trusted guarantee.
PRICING FACTORS
Not all trees and stumps are created equal. Here’s a transparent breakdown of what influences the cost of your removal:
Stump or Tree Size
Larger stumps or trees require more grinding or removal time and create more wear on our heavy-duty equipment.
Tree Type
Hardwoods like eucalyptus take significantly longer to remove or grind than softwoods like pine.
Access
Easy access costs less. Difficult access paths (stairs, narrow gates, tight courtyards) require smaller, specialized equipment.
Depth Required
Standard 30 cm grinding depth is included. Deeper grinding for future pools, construction, or landscaping projects costs extra.
Location
We service the local area efficiently. Travel fees may apply for properties outside the Colac region.
Quantity
Efficiency saves money. Multiple stumps or trees removed on the same property during a single visit qualify for volume pricing.
