Removal of the tree, but leaving behind a stump, does not signify the end of growth. 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, roots can continue to grow even after the tree is cut down. These roots could cause cracks to appear in your foundation or interfere with pipes, cables or your septic tanks.
The stump of a tree may seem benign, but a closer inspection will reveal that it’s anything but. Tree stumps may harbour ants, termites, wood-boring beetles and other insects. It would not be long before an infestation was in full swing. This can affect the integrity and value of your home and have an adverse affect on your plant life.
Estate agents will tell you that kerb-appeal can influence the market value of your home by as much as 10%. Tree stumps on your property may make it harder to sell your house for the price you’d like.
