Alongside tree shearing, flailing and mulching, we also provide stump planing and brash raking services - helping landowners, farmers, and developers restore ground after forestry or site clearance work. Using specialist machinery, we can remove tree stumps and clear brash efficiently, leaving the land safe, level, and ready for replanting, construction, or agricultural use.

 

What is Stump Planing?

Stump planing (also known as stump grinding) uses a powerful cutting attachment to break down tree stumps below ground level. This eliminates trip hazards, prevents regrowth, and allows the ground to be reused without the need for digging or chemical treatments. The process is quick, effective, and minimises disruption to the surrounding area.

 

What is Brash Raking?

Brash raking involves collecting and removing leftover branches, twigs, and debris (known as brash) following forestry or tree clearance. Using a heavy-duty rake attachment, we gather the material into manageable rows or piles for processing or removal. This improves site safety, reduces fire hazards, and prepares the ground for its next stage of use.

 

Benefits of Stump Planing and Brash Raking

Restores Land for Reuse – Makes cleared sites ready for replanting, construction, or farming.

 

Improves Safety – Removes hazards such as exposed stumps and loose debris.

 

Cost-Effective – Fast, efficient methods reduce the need for additional manual labour.

 

Environmentally Friendly – Brash can be recycled as biomass or mulch, supporting sustainable land management.
