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

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

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the same stump location

Tree root systems typically extend out into the yard nearly 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 which makes it impossible to start a new| replacement tree at any place within 10 ft of the old location.

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

Aged tree roots take years to break down

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly as well. Roots connected to a stump appear to last much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Various trees do not really die when they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the subsequent year. These suckers are a little bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of coming back as one tree| will return as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump reduces the chances of the tree from turning 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 hazard for injury

The possibility for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the leading reason why a big 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 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.
