How to Use the Stump Removal Cost Calculator

Removing tree stumps from your property has never been easier. Our Stump Removal Cost Calculator simplifies the process by providing an instant estimate based on key details such as the size of the stump, quantity, removal method, and accessibility. Just enter the required information, and you’ll get a tailored cost estimate in seconds.

Enter the Stump Diameter

Measure the diameter of the stump at its widest point in centimeters. This step is crucial as the diameter directly impacts the complexity and cost of removal. Use a measuring tape for accuracy and input the value into the calculator.

Enter the Number of Stumps

If you have multiple stumps to remove, simply enter the total number. The cost will scale with the number of stumps, so providing the correct quantity ensures an accurate estimate.

Select the Service Type

Choose the type of service you need from the following options: Grinding Only, Complete Removal or Eco-Friendly Removal. Each service type involves different methods and costs, so selecting the right one is essential.

Select the Type of Tree Stump

Indicate whether the stump comes from a hardwood or softwood tree. Hardwood stumps are typically more challenging and costly to remove due to their density.

Select the Accessibility Level

Choose the level of access to the stump: Easy (no obstacles), Moderate (some challenges like uneven terrain), or Difficult (significant obstacles). Accessibility impacts the overall cost.

Calculate the Cost

After filling in all the fields, click the “Calculate” button. The estimated cost will appear below, giving you a rough idea of what to expect.

How the Tree Removal Cost is Calculated

While our Stump Removal Cost Calculator provides a helpful estimate, understanding the factors behind the calculation can give you better insight into the pricing. Here’s a breakdown of how the costs are determined:

  1. Base Cost
    The base cost is a fixed starting point for removing a stump. The cost is based on the size of the stump and increases as the diameter increases. The base cost is as follows:
    • Stumps up to 30 cm: £50
    • Stumps up to 60 cm: £75
    • Stumps over 60 cm: £100
  2. Diameter Multiplier
    The diameter of the stump affects the complexity of the removal process. A larger stump requires more effort and equipment. The multipliers are:
    • Up to 30 cm: Multiplier = 1.0
    • 31 to 60 cm: Multiplier = 1.2
    • Over 60 cm: Multiplier = 1.5
  3. Service Type Multiplier
    The type of stump removal service chosen affects the cost. Different services require different methods and resources, which will alter the final price. The service types are:
    • Grinding Only: Multiplier = 1.0
    • Complete Removal: Multiplier = 1.3
    • Eco-Friendly Removal: Multiplier = 1.5
  4. Tree Type Multiplier
    The type of tree from which the stump originates can affect the difficulty of removal. Hardwood stumps are denser and harder to remove than softwood stumps. The multipliers are:
    • Hardwood: Multiplier = 1.2
    • Softwood: Multiplier = 1.0
  5. Accessibility Multiplier
    The ease of access to the stump is crucial in determining the final cost. Stumps in hard-to-reach areas will require more labor and equipment, raising the price. The multipliers are:
    • Easy: Multiplier = 1.0
    • Moderate: Multiplier = 1.2
    • Difficult: Multiplier = 1.5
  6. The Final Calculation
    Once all the details are entered, the calculator multiplies the base cost by the diameter, service type, tree type, and accessibility multipliers to give an estimated cost. This formula helps to give you a rough idea of what to expect for your stump removal project.
