Stump Grinding Services Frequently Asked Questions
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.
