Johnny was great to deal with prompt service. Showed up when he said he would and the machine was fun to watch make easy work of 30-48 inch wide stumps at a very reasonable price in comparison to the other quotes. I would highly recommend him if you need some stumps removed. Thanks!

Johnny was very professional with what needed to be done. Took pride in taking time to use extra material to set up the existing areas around the stumps to not cause any damaged to the home or surrounding.

Believe the reviews- Johnny runs a great business!! Arrived earlier than expected (kept me in the loop regarding his expected arrival time), is the most pleasant person to work with, and competitively priced. I figured he’d be booked out a week or so, but he was able to stop out within two days! He left my yard…
Very professional does a great job getting down deep and cleaning up on the way out! I’d recommend and use him again in the future, thanks!
Great communication, fast service and a fair price. Was very professional.

A last minute call to save a concrete schedule at my home. Johnny did an amazing job and exceeded my expectations and my contractor’s expectations as well. Pricing was reasonable and fair . Very happy with his work and availability at the last minute. Very happy!!! —Jason C
Johnny came out a day after I called and removed a stump that was not removed properly, he did a fantastic job. I highly recommend this company.
Super professional- quick to respond with a quote and EXCELLENT work!
Johnny was great to work with, he had an impressive piece of machinery to get the job done. Would highly recommend his Work.
Professional, on time, and communication was happening at all times. Will recommend to friends and family.
Super nice guy! Does it all himself at a good price. Saves money and time rather than renting out the tools from Home Depot. Highly recommend.
Super pleasant to deal with. His equipment was absolutely top notch and he was out of here fast with some sizable fresh ash stumps and the job was done right. Cleanup was good, too, no real tracks or mess left in the yard.
Such great experience!! They were prompt and did a couple of extra without charging. Was concerned about tearing up lawn when this wasn't an issue at all. I haveva bunch more dead trees and will deginatrly use again!!
Northern Stump Solution removed tree and bush stumps from 2 parts of the yard. Efficient and thorough stump grinding with a smile. Johnnie informed me he also had a large grinder (one of the few in the Twin Cities) for the larger trees. Thank you for a job well done.
Don't overthink this. If you have a stump (or several) to get rid of, you need to call NSS. Johnny and his giant stump-eating robot will get the job done in a fraction of the time you'd need to diy, and you save yourself a painful fight with a conventional grinder. Super professional, great rates. Highly recommended local business.
Prompt, professional, very competitive pricing. Highly recommended, will use his services again. He easily handled a massive basswood stump that a competitor had bid at over twice the price.
Jonny is the best. Not only does he do amazing work, he shows up on time, always has a smile on his face and only works professionally. Couldn’t recommend him more!
I’m so happy with my experience! Johnny was super friendly, went out of his way to get the job done well, was on time, and did excellent work. I highly recommend Northern Stump Solutions!
Prompt on getting to me and did a great job. Super easy to work with
Highly recommend! Prompt communication, flexible on timing and service was completed as described with care for surroundings
Johnny did a great job stump grinding 5 stumps in my yard. I first wanted him to do three. But his bid came in so reasonable, I asked him if he wouldn’t mind doing the other two. He didn’t hesitate even though he had another job to get to. Johnny is very personable and arrived right when he said he would and gave me…
Johnny showed up on time and did an excellent job grinding our large Oak stump. He went right to work and was efficient and paid great attention to detail in order to totally remove the stump. He cleaned up the area as he completed the work. I recommend him and I would hire him again.
Johnny responded to my request for stump grinding right away and provided a very reasonable quote based on the pictures I sent him. He was able to come the very next day and get a very large stump ground away in under an hour. I would definitely recommend.
Very professional and very friendly, I would definitely hire Northern Stump Solutions for future stump removal work.
Was very pleased with the work. He was very friendly, fast, and efficient. Would definitely have them out again!
Absolute pleasure to work with. I particularly appreciate how easy John was to work with. He made it very simple to get a quick assessment of what we needed getting a stump ground out in the garden next to our house over text and was super quick coming out to do the work. He did a fantastic job and was a pleasure to…
Johnny was great. Quick to respond, was able to get me in the same day I inquired about service and had a great price. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Awesome job, fairly priced and would recommend over and over. Did a great job!
I reached out to Johnny via a random Facebook Marketplace post for stump grinding, and I'm so glad I found him. He showed up the next day, completed 4 stumps for me with some of the best equipment I've seen, and left the rest of the property undisturbed. It sounds hyperbolic, but he's literally my stump guy for life. Wish I had more stumps!
Great customer service!! It’s was a pleasure to have someone actually answer the phone when you call, and my problem resolved in hours! First class
Great experience. Good price friendly knowledgeable and experienced guy. Did 5 stumps and cleanup in about an hour. Made things look nice and cleaned.

I would highly recommend them! Super reasonable pricing and very timely. Great costumer service.
We had two sizable stumps to remove immediately adjacent to our driveway and cement pad atop our retaining wall. I needed both removed in order to extend the retaining wall parallel to our driveway.

Professional service. Thorough clean up. Worked hard and provided excellent reasonably priced service.
We recently had a very large stump ground down and couldn't be happier with the experience. After two years of gathering quotes from several companies, I decided to reach out to Johnny after seeing a Facebook ad and reading his Google reviews. I'm glad I did. I texted him some photos of the stump and his pricing far…
Showed up when he said he would. Ground the stumps down, cleaned up. And with the nice equipment he has, could barely tell he was on my lawn. Worked out perfect!!

Super guy!! Very business oriented!! Priced accordingly!! Very friendly and easy to work with!! Very pleased with services
Highly recommend. I had a stump grinding set up for the next morning within 2hrs of requesting pricing. Easy/clear texts on arrival timelines too. Cheaper than both other options I got pricing for. Will use again
John was prompt, courteous, and very efficient! Wonderful overall service experience. Easy to schedule by simply messaging a photo and answering a few basic questions. Was able to get the stump ground less than a week after inquiring, and the price was reasonable. Definitely recommend and would use again!
Was able to schedule my job quickly and reliable!
John did an excellent job at removing the stumps I had left over from taking down about 10 trees from the ash disease that killed them. He was quick and efficient.
We had Johnny out for the 2nd time today to clear out more stumps, this time in our back yard. He brought his new machine which made short work of even the biggest stumps.
Professional, fast and affordable. Would definitely use them again
I saw Johnny working in my neighbor's yard. So I popped over & asked him if he could grind 2 stumps in my yard too. He offered a good price and had it done quickly. When done, he did a great job of blowing the wood chips back to my pile, so there was no mess left in my other neighbor's yard for them to deal with. I…
Johnny was great. Prompt response to inquiries. Fair estimate and good work. Was able to do estimate remote (I sent pictures with measurements). 6 stumps (1 nearly 3' in diameter) for less then $1k. All ground to below ground and the area cleaned up in less than 4hrs. If I have more stumps, I will not hesitate to call Johnny back!

He listened and was respectful of my property and protecting my sprinkler system. The process is messy and he used a protective…

John was here today from Northern Stump Removal and took out some nasty bush roots. The area was really tight and the hill was high, so I was not sure he could take them out, but he did. I highly recommend him to anyone that has a similar situation. Price was reasonable, too. Thanks John!
