Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following article outlines the many reasons why you should look at Tommy Trees stump grinding service.

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same stump location

Tree roots most likely spread out into the yard almost as much as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind making it impractical to start a new| replacement tree any where within 10 feet of the old site.

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

Older tree roots take a long time to decompose

Soon after 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 obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can spring up

Various trees do not die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the subsequent year.

It was not until a crack opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole approximately 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
