That stump’s doing more harm than you think.

Let’s be honest — tree stump removal in Christchurch can be a real hassle. Not only are they an eyesore, but they also pose safety risks, especially for kids, pets, and anyone navigating your backyard.


They get in the way of mowing, attract unwanted pests as they rot, and make it tough to move forward with your landscaping plans.


You might be dealing with -


  • A lawnmower that jolts every time it hits the stump and roots.


  • Loved ones tripping over it


  • Insects nesting in the decaying wood


  • Projects are delayed because the stump won’t budge


It’s frustrating, and let’s face it — a bit awkward when the neighbours notice.


The good news? You don’t have to put up with it.


At Hollands Tree Services, we remove stumps quickly, cleanly, and professionally — giving you a safer, tidier space that’s ready for whatever’s next.



Tree Grinding Near You

We know how frustrating that old stump can be — it’s not just an eyesore, it’s stopping you from using your space the way you want.

Whether you’re -

  • Putting up a new fence
  • Building a shed, deck, or sleepout
  • Starting a garden or landscaping project
  • Just trying to mow without smashing the mower

…it’s always in the way and making life harder than it needs to be.

We’re the team locals trust because we -

  • Turn up when we say we will
  • Get the job done right — fast and tidy
  • Give honest advice, no fluff, and fair pricing

From backyards to paddocks, we’ve seen it all — and sorted it.

We believe no one should waste their time (or money) hiring a stump grinder and tackling it solo.

Here’s why -

  • 80% of DIY stump grinding ends up costing more than hiring a pro
  • It usually takes 3 to 4 times longer than expected
  • Harder woods like gum, macrocarpa, and pine can take ages to grind.

If the machine’s not sharp, you’ll wish you never started

It’s messy as — you’re left with woodchips everywhere and a half-finished job

You deserve a clear, usable yard without the headache.

Let Hollands take care of it, so you can crack on with the good stuff.

Got Questions About Stump Removal?

We’ve Got Answers

  • How much does it cost to remove a tree in Christchurch?

    The cost of removing a tree  in Canterbury and Christchurch by an arborist depends on the size, type, and location of the tree, as well as the equipment needed for safe removal. Below is a general price guide based on tree height relative to a one-story, two-story, or three-story house:


    Small Tree (One-Story House Size) – $250 to $500

    Medium Tree (Two-Story House Size) – $600 to $1,200

    Large Tree (Three-Story House Size or Taller) – $1,500 to $3,000+


    Additional Costs:

    Some jobs may require specialised equipment like cranes, cherry pickers, or stump grinders, which can increase the overall cost. 


    Trees in hard-to-reach areas, near power lines, or with complex branch structures may also require extra safety measures, adding to the price.


    For an accurate quote, contact a professional arborist to assess your specific tree removal needs. ✅ Call Adam: 0800 220 990 for expert advice and a free estimate. 🌳

  • How much does tree removal cost in Christchurch?

    Tree removal costs depend on tree size, location, and complexity. Call us for a free estimate.

  • What is the cheapest time of year for tree removal?

    The cheapest time of year for tree removal is during the winter months (June to August in New Zealand). 


    During this period, demand for arborist services is lower compared to the busy spring and summer seasons, which means you could save 30% to 40% on the cost of tree removal.


    However, winter is also a popular time for proactive property owners to book tree work, as arborists can work more efficiently without dense foliage. 


    It’s a good idea to book in advance to secure a spot, as schedules can fill up quickly.

  • How do you know if a tree is too close to your house?

    You know if a tree is too close to your house when.


    Branches touching the roof – Can cause damage, block gutters, and lead to moisture issues.


    Roots near the foundation – May weaken the structure, crack concrete, or disrupt plumbing.


    Risk of falling branches – Storms or high winds could bring down limbs, causing costly repairs.


    Limited sunlight & ventilation – Dense trees too close to the house can lead to dampness and mould issues.


    Cracks in walls or driveways – May indicate root intrusion affecting your property’s stability.


    If you’re unsure, book a professional inspection to assess the risks. ✅ Call Adam: 0800 220 990 for expert advice! 🌳

  • Can I cut down a pōhutukawa tree on my property?

    Removing a pōhutukawa tree from your property isn’t as simple as cutting it down. 


    As a native New Zealand tree, pōhutukawa are often protected under local council regulations, meaning you may need special permission to remove or even prune them.


    Before taking any action, check with your local council to see if consent is required. Removing a protected tree without approval can result in fines or penalties.


    ✅ Need advice? Call Adam: 0800 220 990 for expert guidance on tree removal and pruning!

  • How do I decide to cut down a tree?

    Deciding whether to cut down a tree comes down to safety, health, and practicality. If the tree is damaged, diseased, or dying, with cracks, peeling bark, hollow trunks, or multiple dead branches, it may be beyond saving. Trees with fungal growth, insect infestations, or root rot can weaken over time, posing a fall risk. Structural concerns, like a sudden lean, weak 'Y' crotches, or storm damage, may make the tree unstable. If the tree is too close to your home, blocking sunlight, disrupting underground utilities, or outgrowing its space, it might be time to consider removal. Need expert advice?
