Tree stump removal involves removing a stump left after a tree has been felled tree, either by hand or by using mechanical equipment such as a stump grinder.

What Is Included In A Stump Removal And Grinding Service?
The stump-removal specialists use powerful, high tech stump grinders. They can grind your stump no matter what size it is with minimal disturbance of the ground around it. The machine’s ability to cut above and below ground means the stump can be removed without causing any damage to the surrounding area.
The stump and buttress roots of the tree are ground down to around 300 mm below ground, which allows for replanting or ground preparation for just about any other purpose.
After the stump has been taken out, the team will fill the hole in with a combination of dirt and wood chippings. The ground will now be levelled, allowing you to re-grass the area if you like. Or maybe you want to plant a different tree in the newly created hole.
You can add the remnants of your tree stump to your compost bin, or you can turn it into mulch. Mulch is a great way to improve the water retention properties of the soil in your garden.

What Are The Dangers Of Leaving A Stump In Place And When Should It Be Removed?
It can cause you a lot of trouble if you do not remove the tree stump.
First, it can be a dangerous obstruction, especially for small children who might trip and fall while playing. Also, it can cause liability issues. You could be held liable if someone injures themselves after tripping over the stump.
It is important to note that a tree stump left behind after removal does not mean the growth process has ended Stumps that are left in the ground may produce new sprouts during the growing period, which can make them more unsightly. With some tree species the roots will also continue to grow even after the tree has been cut down. These roots can spread silently toward your foundation and cause cracks. They may also interfere with water lines, underground cables, or a sewer tank.
The stump may seem harmless, but it is often anything but. Tree stumps could harbour termites or ants as well as other insects such as wood-boring beetles and other insects, which, in no time, an infestation would have taken place. This could compromise your property’s integrity and value as well as negatively affect your plant life.

Stump Grinding Services FAQs
Is it necessary to stump grind?
While having the stump ground is not always necessary, many people prefer to deal with the stump at the same time as having the tree removed. Stump grinding allows the property owner to use the area where the tree once stood for laying sod or planting a flower bed.
How effective is stump grinding?
Stump Grinding Takes Care of Tree Roots: You might assume that stump grinding would allow your tree to re-sprout again, since the roots are left behind. However, by grinding the stump all the way down, we are able to effectively eliminate any chance that unwanted tree will grow back.
What are the cons of stump grinding?
Root Decay. After stump grinding, the roots are also chopped up. This can lead to decay and fungus growth in the remaining wood. If you have plans to replant the area where the stump was removed, this could be a problem.
What happens if you don't grind a tree stump?
Decay and Disease Spread Tree stumps and their root systems will rot and decay over time. Fungi or mold that grows on the stump can be dangerous to your family's health. The rotting root system may also spread disease and infection to other trees or plants in your yard, leaving you with a barren, zombie garden.
Will the stump grow back after grinding?
The answer is yes – trees can grow back if the stump is left in place. While stump grinding presents less of a risk of regrowth, the roots are still left in place and can produce sprouts that may eventually grow into a tree.
