Why you should take out tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following post details the many reasons why you should consider our stump grinding services.

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same location

Tree root systems usually stretch out into the yard virtually as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left making it impossible to plant a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 feet of the existing site.

If you choose 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 forever to degrade

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly as well. Roots connected to a stump appear to survive much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Specific trees do not die when they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the ensuing year. These kinds of suckers are a little bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than returning as one tree| will come back 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 unwelcome 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 collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the most important reason why a big 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 was not until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
