Meet the Owner

Hi, I'm Drew

For 15 years, I worked in climate and energy. But stump grinding is the most satisfying work I've done. It's working outdoors, working with my hands, and delivering tangible results. The before-and-after photos say it all.

Lightning Stump Removal is a family business. My wife and kids are the reason I show up when I say I will, and the reason I do clean, careful work.

Showing up on time and doing the job right: that's the standard. When you call, you get me. No call centres, no AI, and no runaround.

We're based in Port Hope and proudly serve Northumberland, Durham, Peterborough, the Greater Toronto Area, and Belleville / Prince Edward County across Central Ontario.
