Why you should get rid of tree stumps with a stump removal service

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same area

Tree root systems generally stretch out in to the yard virtually as far as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left making it difficult to start a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 ft of the old site.
