Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the exact same area

Tree root systems generally extend out in to the yard just about as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left which makes it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree at any place within 10 feet of the old location.

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

Old tree roots take a long time to break down

Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots break down swiftly as well. Roots attached to a stump seem to last much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can spring up

Particular trees do not die after they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the ensuing year. These kinds of suckers are a little bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than coming back as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump stops the tree from turning into an unwelcome addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can threaten sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the most significant 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 was not until a crack opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole approximately 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
