Why you should clear away tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following post details the many reasons why you should consider Tommy Trees stump grinding service.

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the exact same stump location

Tree roots most likely stretch out into the yard just about as far as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind making it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree any where inside 10 feet of the existing site.

Aged tree roots take years to break down

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump seem to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Some trees do not really die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the next year.

Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump stops the tree from developing into an unwanted 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 top reason why a sizeable tree stump ought to be removed rather than being actually left in place. There have been instances where an 80 yr 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 approximately 6 feet deep| and that is just an accident waiting to happen.
