Why you ought to take out tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following article outlines the many reasons why you should look at our stump grinding services.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the exact same location

Tree roots typically extend out into the yard practically as much as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind making it impossible to plant a new| replacement tree any where within 10 feet of the existing location.

If you intend to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump must definitely be ground up so as to create some space.

Old tree roots take a long time to break down

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump appear to last much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Various trees do not die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the next year. These kinds of suckers are a little bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of returning as one tree| will return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump prevents the tree from turning into an undesirable addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential hazard for injury

The potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the leading reason why a substantial tree stump should be removed instead of being actually left in place. There have been instances where an 80 year walnut was removed leaving behind a stump with a girth of over 100 inches. It wasn’t until a crack opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole approximately 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
