FAQ: What Are Some Of The Most Common Questions About Stump Removal?
How Do You Remove a Stump?
Stump grinding is the quickest and most effective way to remove a stump. A grinder cuts into the trunk and below the surface into the root structure, leaving behind an easily manageable pile of mulch.
What Are The Reasons For Removing a Stump?
Besides taking up space and being an eyesore, there’s plenty of reasons to have a stump removed.
-
Lawn Mowing: Tree stumps and large roots can be difficult to maneuver around while cutting the lawn and even damage your mower's blades.
-
Safety Hazard: Stumps are a major tripping hazard. If someone happens to hurt themselves, you could be liable.
-
Unwanted New Growth: Tree stumps that aren't properly removed will often re-sprout into multiple shoots each spring.
-
Pests: Decaying tree stumps invite unwanted pests — Especially termite and ant infestations.
Will Stump Grinding Damage My Yard Or Underground Utilities?
The machines we use are designed to drive over your lawn without causing damage. Typically, you won't see any marks or tracks after we're done, unless your yard is muddy or extremely wet.
Our stump grinding operators have years of experience navigating around underground utilities, irrigation lines, foundations and fences. We also have different sized grinders. Our smaller machines can fit through tight, gated areas and our large machines can be brought in for bigger stumps.
Small or large, we won't be stumped!
