STUMP REMOVAL AND GRINDING SERVICES
If you have had to cut down a tree, your next question would be whether to remove the stump or not. A stump sitting in your yard might look harmless, however, it can be a hazardous mistake to not remove it. The stump can harbour diseases or fungi, attract carpenter ants, termites, wood boring beetles – all posing a threat to the other trees and plants in your garden and to your property. It also lowers your yard’s aesthetic appeal. Another major issue would be susceptibility to accidents by tripping over it. Also, the regrowth is not only displeasing but also nulls the whole point of chopping the tree down in the first place. It is, thus, advisable to make the smart choice of bearing the stump removal cost instead of spending a lot more on damage control in the future.
There are two methods for stump removal
- Grinding
- Complete removal
STUMP REMOVAL PROCEDURES FOR YOUR GARDEN
The difference between Stump grinding and removal is the amount of stump removed from the ground.
Removal entails extracting the stump out with the roots. Complete removal is preferred if you need a levelled foundation to build a structure such as patio,driveway, or stone wall in the area with the stump. Grinding on the other hand is grinding (between four inches to a foot below the ground) the stump with the help of a stump grinder and shaving the remaining trunk. It removes the surface roots, making it a much more viable option for homeowners as it doesn’t disrupt your entire garden. The wood chips can then be used to fill the hole left behind, as mulch, or for both. The tree stump removal and stump grinding costs can vary according to the job.
Although there
are ways to remove the stump on your own, it is wise to let professionals
handle it. The equipment used is specialised, highly sophisticated and expensive.
The job is not only risky but also needs high expertise, particularly that of
an arborist. While seeking professional help, remember to choose a reputed
company that is experienced, fully certified, affordable, and insured. This is
essential to ensure you are covered in case of any damage to your property
while the job is being done.
