Though stumps can still be left on the ground following tree removal, leaving them there can sometimes be problematic. In addition to their unattractive nature and the potential obstruction for future landscaping projects, the stump may also spread root disease such as honey-fungus.
Tree stumps are removed by either using hand tools or, more commonly, by using mechanical machinery, such as a stump grinder.
It makes more economic sense to pay that extra bit for stump removal when you are removing the tree. Stumps are usually large and heavy, and therefore require special equipment and techniques to remove them.
What Is Included In A Stump Grinding And Removal Service?
The stump removal experts use high-powered, advanced stump grinders to grind down your tree stump, regardless of its size, with minimal ground disturbance. 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 stump of the tree and its buttress roots is ground down to about 300-mm below the ground surface, allowing for replanting as well as ground preparation for other purposes.
Once the stump is gone, the team can fill the remaining hole with a combination of the wood chippings and dirt. The ground is now levelled so you can re-grass it after the tree stump has been removed. 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 Tree Stump Removal 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 can be a dangerous obstacle for children to play in the garden, especially if they are small. The stump can also cause a liability problem. Someone who trips and falls on the stump could claim that you were negligent in leaving it.
It is important to note that a tree stump left behind after removal does not mean the growth process has ended Stumps in the ground can grow new shoots at the base of the stump during the growing seasons, making them appear even more unsightly. In some cases, even after a tree is felled, its roots can continue to grow and spread. These roots can spread silently toward your foundation and cause cracks. They may also interfere with water lines, underground cables, or a sewer tank.
It may look like a harmless stump, but when you take a closer glance it can be 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.

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.
