Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

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

Tree root systems generally stretch out into the yard almost as far as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left making it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree any where within 10 ft of the existing site.

If you want to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump will need to be ground up in order to create some space.

Aged tree roots take a long time to break down

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down quickly too. Roots attached to a stump appear to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Certain trees do not really die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the subsequent year. These kinds of suckers are a 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 portion of the root stump reduces the chances of the tree from becoming 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 for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the most significant reason why a big tree stump ought to be removed instead of 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 opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole approximately 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
