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

The following article outlines the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding service.

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same location

Tree roots typically stretch out into the yard virtually 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 impossible to plant a new| replacement tree at any place within 10 ft of the old site.

If you really want to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump should be ground up in order to create some space.

Old tree roots take a long time to degrade

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

Stump removal prevents suckers which can come up

Some trees do not really die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the following year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than coming back as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest section of the root stump helps prevent the tree from turning into an unwanted 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 possibility for a collapse or a sinkhole in the yard is the most important reason why a large tree stump ought to 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 started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
