Why you ought to remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Tree roots commonly stretch 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 start a new| replacement tree any where within 10 feet of the existing location.

Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury
