Tree stump removal is the process of removing a tree stump after the tree has been cut down. Removing the stump can be done with either hand tools, or by using mechanical machinery like a stump grinder.

It makes more economic sense to pay that extra bit for stump removal when you are removing the tree. Stumps can be heavy and large, so they require the correct equipment and techniques for removal.

What Is A Stump Grinding And Removal Service?

The stump removal specialist uses high-powered stump grinders with advanced technology to grind the stump, no matter how large it is, while causing as little disturbance to the ground as possible. The machine can cut both above ground and underground, meaning that the stump is removed with the least amount of disturbance to the surrounding landscape.

The tree stump is ground to around 300 mm beneath the surface of the ground. This allows for ground preparation or replanting.

Once the stump is gone, the team can fill the remaining hole with a combination of the wood chippings and dirt. When the hole has been filled in, the ground will be levelled so that you can grass it if you like. Or perhaps you’d like a brand new tree to be planted in that newly created hole.

The remnants of your tree stump can be added to your compost bin or turned into mulch to enhance the texture and fertility of your soil, or spread around your plants to increase their water-retention abilities.

How Long Does The Tree Stump Removal Process Take?

To remove small stumps, it may take a quarter-hour, while to grind larger ones to pulp, they will need to be excavated, cut and ground, which can take up to an hour.

What Are The Risks If You Leave A Tree Stump And When Should I Remove It?

A tree stump left in your garden could cause many problems.

It’s a potentially dangerous obstacle, especially if your children are young as they may trip on it when playing in your garden. It could also pose a problem in terms of liability. 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. The roots of some trees will continue growing even after the tree was cut down. These roots may cause cracks in your foundation, interfere with underground cables, water pipes or your septic system.

It may look like a harmless stump, but when you take a closer glance it can be anything but. Tree stumps are a breeding ground for termites, ants, wood-boring beetles and other insects, which could quickly lead to an infestation. This can cause damage to your property and have an adverse effect on your plant life.

Estate agents will tell you that curb appeal can impact the value of your home by up to 10%. Tree stumps on your property may make it harder to sell your house for the price you’d like.
