St Albert Stump Removal – Common Questions

Do I need City of St. Albert permission to remove a stump?

Not for trees fully on private property. If the stump is on a boulevard, Parks & Public Works must approve the removal and will re-plant a replacement tree in the next planting cycle.

What is the average stump-grinding fee in St. Albert?

Stump removal in St. Albert starts at $120 for small stumps (under 10 inches). Most residential jobs fall between $120–$420 per stump, with larger stumps (up to 60 inches) costing more. Additional fees may apply for tall stumps requiring chainsaw work.

Will stump grinding disturb my sprinkler system?

We request you flag sprinkler heads; the grinder stays 6 inches below lateral lines, preventing damage.

Can you grind elm stumps during the elm-pruning ban?

Yes—Alberta's elm-pruning ban (Apr 1–Sep 30) *does not* restrict stump grinding because no live branches are cut.

Do roots regrow after grinding poplar stumps?

Poplar can sprout suckers. Grinding severs the root collar; any tiny shoots that appear can be mowed off until the root dies.

How deep do you grind?

6–12 inches below grade; deep enough for grass or new garden beds.

Can I seed grass right after grinding?

Yes—rake out chips, top-up with screened loam, and seed or sod immediately.
