Why you should clear away tree stumps with a stump grinding service

The following post explains the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding service.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same location

Tree roots frequently extend out into 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 impossible to start a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 feet of the existing site. If you wish to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump has to be ground up in order to create some space.

Aged tree roots take years to decompose

After a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate quickly also. Roots connected to a stump seem to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping amenities.

Suckers may break out

Particular trees do not really die when 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 instead of coming back as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump stops the tree from turning into an undesirable addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Potential hazard for injury

The possibility for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the most important reason why a substantial tree stump should be removed instead of being left in place. There have been instances where an 80 yr walnut was removed leaving behind a stump with a girth of over 100 inches. It wasn’t until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| and that is just an accident waiting to occur anytime.
