Why you should take out tree stumps with a stump grinding service
The following post details the many reasons why you should look at Tommy Trees stump grinding services.
Stumps make it tough to replant in the same location
Tree root systems generally stretch out in to the yard almost as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind which makes it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 ft of the existing site. If you really want to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump will need to be ground up so as to create some space.
Old tree roots take a long time to break down
Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots break down quickly also. Roots connected to a stump appear to last much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.
Suckers may break out
Specific 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 likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump prevents 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 potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the greatest reason why a big tree stump should be removed as opposed to 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 a hole approximately 6 feet deep| and that is just an accident waiting to occur anytime.
