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

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

Tree roots typically spread out into the yard virtually as far as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left making it unfeasible to plant a new| replacement tree any where inside 10 feet of the existing location.

Aged tree roots take a long time to decompose

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots break down quickly also. Roots connected 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 break out

Expanding roots can endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury
