Why you should take out tree stumps with a stump removal service

The following post outlines the many reasons why you should choose our stump grinding services.

Stumps make it tough to replant in the same location

Tree root systems generally spread out in to 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 impractical to plant a new| replacement tree at any place within 10 ft of the old site.

If you choose to replace that old shade tree with a different one| then the stump will need to be ground up for you to create some space.

Older tree roots take a long time to degrade

Soon after a stump has been ground up| the roots break down swiftly as well. Roots connected to a stump seem to survive much longer and can block planting shrubs| flowers| and many other landscaping features.

Stump removal prevents suckers which can come up

Various trees do not really die after they’ve been chopped down| and will send up suckers the subsequent year. These suckers are a bit like the multi headed Greek “Hydra” and instead of coming back as one tree| will likely return as ten or twenty trees . Grinding down the stump and the thickest portion of the root stump helps prevent the tree from becoming an unwanted 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 hazard for injury

The potential for a cave-in or a sinkhole in the yard is the greatest reason why a big 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 was not until a crack started up in the stump that discovered beneath the stump was a hole some 6 feet deep| which is just an accident waiting to happen.
