Who We Are
Our Story
Leyva Stump Grinding was founded in 2025 by Olegario Leyva, who has worked in the tree service industry since 2007. After nearly two decades of hands-on experience, he decided to build a company that reflects his personal standards for honesty, professionalism, and quality work. One of the defining moments for Olegario was taking his son Daniel to one of his first stump grinding jobs, passing real-world skills on to the next generation and showing him what it means to do the job right.
Our Mission and Values
Our mission is to provide professional care, excellent service, and uncompromising honesty on every job. Five core values guide everything we do: safety, honesty, reliability, professionalism, and friendliness. These show up most clearly in the way we quote and communicate—clients always hear the truth first. We explain what truly needs to be done now, what can safely wait, and then follow through to make sure the work is completed properly and that the customer is fully satisfied.
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is to only do the work that actually needs to be done. We will never suggest removing a tree when careful pruning is a better option, unless removal is specifically what the client wants. We commit to being honest about the condition of your trees and standing behind the quality of the work we perform.
Experience and Services
With 19 years and counting in tree work, Olegario brings deep field experience to every project. While Leyva Stump Grinding specializes in stump grinding, the company also offers professional pruning and tree removal for single-family homes. In addition, Olegario can provide basic tree health diagnostics to help homeowners understand what is happening with their trees before making decisions.
Most of the day-to-day work is done for local homeowners, but Leyva Stump Grinding has also successfully handled larger-scale jobs for clients such as Caltrain and hotels. Whether it’s a single backyard stump or work on a larger property, the same attention to detail and safety applies.
Local Roots and Tree Knowledge
For 19 years, Olegario has been helping Bay Area residents with tree services, building long-term relationships with clients and their properties. What he enjoys most is seeing how much happier people are with their yards once problem stumps and trees are taken care of—and being invited back to help them again as their needs change over time.
Beyond the work itself, Leyva Stump Grinding frequently helps homeowners understand the health of their trees so they can make informed decisions. Olegario is very familiar with local city tree ordinances, which helps clients stay compliant while getting the results they want on their property.
