CAREY CORDOVA

Carey Cordova brings 35 years of industry experience to every job. Utah Stump King is a family-owned, owner-operated business — when you hire the King, you get the King. No crews, no subcontractors. Carey personally shows up, does the work, and makes sure you're satisfied before he leaves.

Carey is equipped with a commercial-grade stump grinder, a mini excavator, and dumpsters — everything needed to handle any job, from a small backyard stump to a massive root ball removal.

What sets us apart is our full-service approach. If a tall stump or whole tree needs to come down first, Carey can handle that too. He'll even cut and stack the firewood for you — no need to call a separate company.

CLEAN RESULTS

The King doesn't just grind and leave. Your property will be cleaner when he's done than when he arrived.
