Why you ought to take out tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following blog post details the many reasons why you should look at our stump grinding service.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the exact same stump location

Tree root systems commonly extend out into the yard virtually as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left behind which makes it difficult to start a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 feet of the existing location.

If you wish to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump has to be ground up in order to create some space.

Older tree roots take years to decompose

Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly too. Roots connected to a stump seem to survive much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can emerge

Some trees do not really die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the subsequent year. These suckers are a little bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of coming back as one tree| will likely come back as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump reduces the chances of the tree from turning into an unwelcome addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential hazard for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the primary reason why a sizeable 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 wasn’t until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
