Why you ought to get rid of tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following post details the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding service.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same stump location

Tree roots usually stretch out in to the yard almost as far as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left which makes it impractical to plant a new| replacement tree any where inside 10 feet of the old location.

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

Old tree roots take a long time to degrade

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate quickly as well. Roots connected to a stump appear to last much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Specific trees do not really die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the next year. These suckers are a little bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of returning as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump prevents the tree from developing into an undesirable 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 potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the leading reason why a substantial tree stump ought to 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 opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
