Tree and Stump Removal That Clears the Way
Trees and stumps stand in the way of pads, drives, pools and yards. We remove them in Nashville with the right machines, and we grind or pull stumps so the ground is ready for what comes next.

Tree & Stump Removal, Done Right
When a tree has to go for a build, a pool or a fence line, we handle the removal and the stump so the area is ready to grade. Excavators pull stumps whole in open areas, and stump grinders work near buildings, lawns and utilities.
We fill the holes, regrade and seed, so you are not left with a hole in your yard and a pile of chips. We also help you decide whether to keep or remove a tree that is in the way.
Music City Excavation brings tree & stump removal to homes, farms and businesses in Nashville and across 16 Middle Tennessee cities.

The Music City Excavation Experience
How We Work
Tell Us About Your Project
Call 615-357-7797 or send the form. Tell us what is going on with your land, your house or your plans.
Walk the Site and Plan
We visit, look at the soil, the slope, the access and the water, and give you a clear, free estimate with options.
Mark, Permit and Prepare
We have underground utilities located, help with the permits and erosion control your project needs and plan where the dirt goes.
Dig, Build and Clean Up
Our crew does the work, keeps the site safe and tidy, restores what we disturb and walks the finished job with you.
Grinding or pulling: which is better?
Grinding is gentler on lawns and works near buildings. Pulling takes the roots too and is better in open areas or where you need soil removed. We recommend what suits your site.
Can you remove a tree near my house?
Often yes, with sectional removal and careful rigging. We look at the tree, the house and the lines before we recommend a plan.
Will you fill the hole?
Yes. Filling and grading is part of the job, with seed or sod if you want it.
