Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same stump location

Tree root systems typically spread out in to the yard nearly as much as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left behind making it impractical to start a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 ft of the old location.

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

Old tree roots take years to decompose

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump appear to last much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can spring up

Specific trees do not die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the next year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than coming back as one tree| will return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump reduces the chances of the tree from turning into an undesirable addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding roots can threaten sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential hazard for injury

The possibility for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the primary reason why a big tree stump should be removed as opposed to being 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 started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to happen.
