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

The following article explains the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding services.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same stump location

Tree root systems typically extend out into the yard almost as much as the branches did on the living 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 location.

There have been instances where an 80 yr 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 actually a hole some 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to happen.
