Why you ought to clear away tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same area

Tree root systems generally spread out in to the yard practically as far as the branches did on the live tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the thicker roots are also left behind which makes it impractical to start a new| replacement tree any where within 10 ft of the old location.

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

Older tree roots take years to degrade

After a stump has been ground up| the roots break down very quickly also. Roots connected to a stump seem to last much longer and can hinder planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping amenities.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can emerge

Particular trees do not die when they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the subsequent year.

Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump defends against the tree from turning into an undesirable 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 potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the main reason why a big tree stump should be removed as opposed to being 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 started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
