Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump grinding service

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same area

Stump grinding Huguenot NYTree roots generally spread out in to the yard virtually as much as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left which makes it difficult to plant a new| replacement tree any where within 10 feet of the old site. If you want to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump must definitely be ground up for you to create some space.

Old tree roots take a long time to decompose

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly also. Roots connected to a stump seem to last much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping features.

Suckers may break out

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. Expanding roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

It wasn’t until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
