Do not leave the stump behind!

Stump grinding is the process of removing the stump. A stump grinder is a heavy-duty machine with a large, serrated blade that grinds the stump from the ground. It also acts as a wood chipper. A highly rated and recommended company such as yours will make sure that the tree removal and stump grinder processes run smoothly and leave your property in the best possible condition. The following are reasons why you should not leave the stump.

* Safety and Liability You don’t want to leave the stumps behind as they can pose a danger to children playing or walking in the yard. Children aren’t paying enough attention to the ground when they run around the yard, playing. It is easy to trip on the roots or stumps and cause injury. It could happen to someone visiting your home, a mailman, a package delivery service worker, or neighbor, who trips and gets hurt. You can be held responsible as the property owner for their injuries.

* Protect other Trees and Structures A common reason to remove a tree is because it is too close or intruding on the home or other trees. It may seem that once the tree has been removed, the problem will be solved. However, leaving the stump in place can cause problems. Because the stump is connected to the roots of the tree, they can still be too close for your home. It is possible for roots to absorb water from the ground, which could be harmful to nearby trees. It can also take up space and prevent the growth of other roots. The company that leaves the stump and removes the tree might not address the problem you were trying to solve.

* Keep Diseases & Pests Away Tree stumps can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases. Infestations and diseases can spread to nearby trees. Termites and beetles love tree stumps.

* Maintain/Increase Aesthetics  Tree stumps can be seen as unattractive and make your home look untidy, especially to potential home buyers and neighbors. If your home is on the market, the aesthetic appearance of it can make all the difference. The best thing is to have the stump ground as soon as the tree is gone. This opens up possibilities. After hiring Arborwise Tree Service to remove and grind the stump, take a moment to consider what you can plant in your yard. There are many options. You can plant flowers, bushes or add a statue/fountain to your yard.
