Why you should grind tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following blog post outlines the many reasons why you should choose Tommy Trees stump grinding services.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same stump location

Tree root systems frequently extend out into the yard just about as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left which makes it impossible to start a new| replacement tree anywhere within 10 feet of the old location.

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

Older tree roots take forever to decompose

Once a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate quickly too. Roots attached to a stump appear to survive much longer and can get in the way of planting shrubs| flowers| and various other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can break out

Some trees do not die after they’ve been felled| and will send up suckers the next year. These kinds of suckers are a bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of coming back as one tree| will come back as ten or twenty new trees. Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump prevents the tree from becoming 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 potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the leading reason why a large 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 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.
