Why you should take out tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the exact same area

Tree root systems generally stretch out in to the yard just about as far as the branches did on the living 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 anywhere within 10 feet of the old location.

If you really want to replace that old shade tree with a brand new one| then the stump must definitely be ground up for you to create some space.

Aged tree roots take forever to decompose

Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate swiftly also. Roots attached to a stump appear to survive much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can emerge

Various trees do not die when they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the ensuing year. These suckers are a little bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than returning as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump stops 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 endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the top 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 wasn’t until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole approximately 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to occur anytime.
