Who we are

A family business built around stumps.

Lancashire Stump Removal is a family-run business, set up by Richie in Preston in 2021.

Stump grinding was the job from day one and it’s still the main one. Alongside it we fell trees, take out and trim hedges, clear overgrown sites and put in land drainage, for homeowners across Lancashire, the North West and further afield. If you’ve read our Google reviews, you’ll know Richie as the one who answers the phone, comes out to quote and does the job.
