Why you should grind tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same location

Tree roots commonly extend out in to 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 making it difficult to plant a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 ft of the existing site.

If you wish to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump needs to be ground up so as to create some space.

Old tree roots take a long time to degrade

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly as well. Roots connected to a stump appear to survive much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and various landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can spring up

Specific trees do not really die after they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the next year. These suckers are a little bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than coming back as one tree| will come back as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest parts of the root stump defends against the tree from becoming an unwelcome addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Spreading roots can threaten 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 substantial tree stump should be removed as opposed to being actually left in place. There have been instances where an 80 year 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 approximately 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
