Why you ought to get rid of tree stumps with a stump grinding service
The following blog post details the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding services.
Stumps make it tough to replant in the same area
Tree roots commonly stretch out in to the yard just about as far as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left which makes it impractical to plant a new| replacement tree any where within 10 ft of the old site. If you really want to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump needs to be ground up in order to create some space.
Old tree roots take years to degrade
Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump seem to last much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping amenities.
Suckers may emerge
Specific trees do not die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the following year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than 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 defends against the tree from becoming an unwelcome addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.
Potential for injury
The potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the biggest reason why a substantial tree stump should be removed rather than being actually 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 was not 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 occur anytime.
