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

The following blog post outlines the many reasons why you should look at our stump grinding services.

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

Stump grinding Campbell Hall NYTree roots most likely stretch out in to the yard just about 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 impractical to plant a new| replacement tree any where within 10 feet of the old site. If you choose to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump has to be ground up for you to create some space.

Older tree roots take forever to degrade

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly too. Roots attached to a stump seem to last much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and other landscaping features.

Suckers may come up

Specific trees do not really die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the subsequent year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than coming back as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump helps prevent the tree from developing into an unwelcome addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding roots can threaten sidewalks or foundations.

Potential for injury

The potential for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the greatest reason why a large tree stump ought to be removed instead of being left in place. There have been instances where an 80 year 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 some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to occur anytime.
