• Tree Stump Grinder

If you recently, or not so recently, had a tree removed, chances are you now need to have the stump ground away. If you have a stump in your yard and you are unsure whether you want it ground down or removed, consider the following:

Stumps are an eyesore. They can be aesthetically intrusive if the rest of your yard is otherwise well landscaped. For those who are meticulous about their landscape, having a stump right in the middle of the lawn or raised flower bed can be an annoyance.

⦁ If you have children, or are older, having a stump can pose a serious hazard. Children, yours or visiting, running through the yard might trip and fall. If anyone visiting your home trips over it, then you are liable as the property owner. Additionally, if you hit it with your lawn mower, it can permanently damage a costly piece of equipment. Maneuvering around a stump will only continue to pose a threat whether you are trying to mow your lawn or weed your garden.

⦁ If left in place a stump can result in new tree growth. The stump will foster small sprouts which can beget smaller trees around the stump. At this point, the small shoots will come back time and time again if all you do is yank them out. It can be much more expensive to use chemicals at this point. Moreover, smaller sprouts/new trees leech nutrients from nearby plants so any flower beds or vegetable gardens you have in the surrounding areas will lose much needed nutrients to the new tree growth.

⦁ Similarly, stumps begin to decay and as they rot, they attract wood boring pests like beetles, ants, and termites. While they might not be a concern when in your yard, rest assured these pests will soon enough make their way into your home.

Once you have made the decision to have that stump ground away, clearing up space for other purposes, you have to consider why you need to let a professional do the job for you. So often we read about how to do something yourself, but grinding away a stump on your own is not as easy as you might think. Even though you can rent the tools for it and give it a go, if you don’t have proper training, protective gear, and professional knowledge, it can go horribly wrong. Stumps grow deep under the surface, and if you try to grind it down and/or remove it yourself, you could cause irreparable damage to your yard or injury yourself.

This process is dangerous, and is less so if left to the professionals. When you try to do the service yourself, it poses a risk to yourself, your neighbors, and your property. If you try to remove a tree stump with the wrong equipment or rip it out by tying a rope around the stump in the back of your car is only going to cause serious damage to yourself and your property. Tree stumps are incredibly strong, much stronger than people realize and even if something can be successfully removed chances are but it's going to come flying out of the ground because of the inertia and either smash your home, your car, or cause injuries to yourself. Professionals will make sure that the job is done right. Tree stumps can split apart as you are trying to remove them or grind them down, with pieces flying off every which way.
