Why you should take out tree stumps with a stump grinding service
The following article outlines the many reasons why you should consider our stump grinding services.
Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same stump location
Tree roots usually extend out into the yard just about as far as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left behind which makes it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 feet of the existing location. If you intend to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump needs to be ground up so as to create some space.
Old tree roots take a long time to degrade
Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump appear to survive much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.
Suckers may spring up
Particular trees do not really die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the following year. These suckers are a bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of returning as one tree| will return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump stops the tree from developing into an unwanted addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.
Potential for injury
The potential for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the most important reason why a sizeable tree stump should be removed as opposed to 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 a hole some 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
