Why you should grind tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following post details the many reasons why you should look at Tommy Trees stump grinding service.

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same area

Tree root systems generally spread out in to the yard virtually as much 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 impossible to plant a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 feet of the existing location.

If you wish to replace that old shade tree with a brand-new one| then the stump will need to be ground up for you to create some space.

Older tree roots take years to break down

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down quickly too. Roots connected to a stump seem to last much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can spring up

Various 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 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 developing into 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 most significant reason why a large tree stump should be removed rather than 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 started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole approximately 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
