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

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same location

Stump grinding Salisbury Mills NYTree roots commonly extend out into the yard virtually as much as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind which makes it difficult to start a new| replacement tree at any place inside 10 ft of the existing site. If you intend to replace that old shade tree with a fresh one| then the stump has to be ground up so as to create some space.

Old tree roots take forever to decompose

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly also. Roots attached to a stump appear to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping amenities.

Suckers may spring up

Certain trees do not die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the ensuing year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of coming back as one tree| will come back as ten or twenty new 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 primary reason why a big tree stump ought to be removed rather than 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 opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
