The decision to leave stumps in place can be problematic in some cases. The stumps are not only unsightly, they can also cause problems for future landscaping projects. There is also the possibility of the stump forming new shoots and possibly spreading root diseases like honey fungus.
Tree stumps are removed by either using hand tools or, more commonly, by using mechanical machinery, such as a stump grinder.
When a tree is being felled, it makes economic sense to pay a little bit extra to have the stump removed at the same time. Stumps can be very heavy and bulky, and therefore require the appropriate equipment and techniques to remove them.
What Is Included In A Stump Grinding And Removal 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 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 tree stump has been removed, the team can fill in the hole using a combination of wood chip and dirt. The ground is now levelled so you can re-grass it after the tree stump has been removed. Perhaps you would like to plant a new variety of tree in your 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?
The removal of small stumps can take as little as a quarter of an hour, but larger ones could require up to an hour or more to be completely cut through, excavate and grind to a pulp.

These roots can spread towards your foundation, causing cracks, or they can interfere with below-ground cables, water pipes, or even your septic tank.
It may look like a harmless stump, but when you take a closer glance it can be anything but.

Tree 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.
