Why you should remove tree stumps with a stump removal service

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

Stumps make it difficult to replant in the exact same location

Tree root systems usually spread out into the yard just about as much as the branches did on the living tree. By leaving the tree stump in place| the more thick roots are also left making it impossible to start a new| replacement tree anywhere inside 10 ft of the existing site.

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

Old tree roots take years to decompose

After a stump has been ground up| the roots deteriorate very quickly as well. Roots attached to a stump seem to last much longer and can obstruct planting shrubs| flowers| and other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can come up

Specific trees do not die after they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the ensuing year. These suckers are a bit similar to the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and rather than returning as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump reduces the chances of the tree from becoming an unwanted addition to your yard. Ground out stumps are less likely to start re-growth of roots. Expanding 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 main reason why a substantial tree stump ought to be removed rather than 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 was not until a crack opened up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was actually a hole some 6 feet deep| and that is simply an accident waiting to occur anytime.
