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

The following article details the many reasons why you should consider Tommy Trees stump grinding services.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the exact same location

Tree root systems most likely stretch out into the yard nearly as far as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left behind making it impractical to start a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 ft of the old site.

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

Aged tree roots take forever to decompose

After a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly as well. Roots connected to a stump seem to survive much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Various trees do not die after they’ve been felled| 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 come back as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump stops 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.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury

The potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the top reason why a large tree stump should be removed instead of being actually left in place. There have been instances where an 80 yr 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 a hole approximately 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
