Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump grinding service
The following article outlines the many reasons why you should look at Tommy Trees stump grinding services.
Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same location
Tree root systems usually spread out into the yard nearly as far 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 impractical to plant a new| replacement tree at any place within 10 ft of the existing location. If you really want to replace that old shade tree with a new one| then the stump should be ground up so as to create some space.
Aged tree roots take years to break down
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 hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and other landscaping features.
Suckers may come up
Particular trees do not really die after 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 rather than coming back as one tree| will return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump defends against the tree from turning into an unwanted addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding roots can threaten sidewalks or foundations.
Potential for injury
The possibility for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the leading reason why a sizeable tree stump should be removed rather than 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 just an accident waiting to happen.
