Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump grinding service

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

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same stump location

Stump grinding New Windsor NYTree roots usually extend out into the yard virtually as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left making it unfeasible to start a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 ft of the existing location. If you want to replace that old shade tree with a new one| then the stump needs to be ground up so as to create some space.

Aged tree roots take years to degrade

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump seem to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and other landscaping amenities.

Suckers may spring up

Some trees do not really die when they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the following year. These kinds of suckers are a little bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of returning as one tree| will likely come back as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump helps prevent the tree from becoming 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 hazard for injury

The potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the main reason why a substantial tree stump ought to be removed instead of being actually 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 was not until a crack opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
