Why you should clear away tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same area

Tree root systems typically spread out into the yard practically as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left behind making it impossible to plant a new| replacement tree any where inside 10 feet of the old location.

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

Old tree roots take years to degrade

Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate quickly too. Roots connected to a stump seem to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and other landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can come up

Particular trees do not really die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the following year. These suckers are a bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than returning as one tree| will likely come back as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump defends against 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 endanger sidewalks or foundations.

Stump Removal lessens potential for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the primary reason why a substantial tree stump ought to be removed rather than being 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 opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| which is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
