Reasons To Get Your Tree Stump Removed

Physical Hazard: Stumps can be a hazard to both kids and adults alike. Kids invariably like to run around in the open yard, and stumps could cause a painful collision, especially in low-light situations. Adults might accidentally hit one with the car or lawnmower, causing expensive damage.


Curb Appeal: Even if you don’t think so, old stumps have a way of detracting from your yard’s overall looks, and your home’s curb appeal will be negatively affected as well. Doing something creative with the stump, like turning it into a planter, sometimes helps, but these projects tend to be just temporary fixes that postpone the inevitable removal.


Decaying Roots: Stumps are a real hassle to mow and weed around and, over time, will present unwanted depressions and holes in the lawn when the root structure starts to decay.


Regrowth: Old stumps will sometimes act as starters for new tree growth. These saplings tend to be very tenacious, with strong roots that intermingle with old stump remnants. They can pose a real vexing challenge for the average homeowner.


Insect Haven: Stumps left alone will eventually become a haven for insects. Most of these bugs will not cause harm, but because termites are usually chief among them, you should plan on immediately getting rid of any stump that is close to your house or outbuildings.

How Do You Remove Tree Stumps?

Once you’re convinced it’s time to take action, here are four options open to homeowners when dealing with stumps:


1. Natural Decomposition: You could wait for nature to eventually rot the stump, but depending on which type of tree is involved, this could take years. Chemicals such as potassium nitrate and rock salt will hasten the process, but will also create a dead zone around the stump area unless the contaminated soil is removed.


2. Excavation of Stump & Roots: Excavation is a great solution, particularly for large, unwieldy stumps. However, the excavating equipment used to dig out the entire stump and root system does need to be operated by a professional.


3. Stump Grinding: Using a stump grinder is the quickest and most cost-effective way to remove a tree stump. In the hands of a professional, an average-sized stump can typically be reduced to a pile of wood chips in a matter of minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What will happen if I leave the stump?

    In the short term, a tree stump will likely present a tripping hazard and an unsightly blight on your garden. In the long term, it could attract pesky critters and negatively impact the value of your property. If you’re hoping to sell up in the near future, stump removal should be at the top of your to-do list.

  • Should I opt for stump grinding or total removal?

    Both methods have their benefits and drawback. Stump removal is more intrusive and likely to take longer than grinding. Tree roots tend to be surprisingly deep and widespread, so removal involves a lot of effort and powerful tools (which we’re more than happy to provide!). While removal can be time-consuming, however, it will provide you with a spotlessly level outdoor area on which to experiment with new gardening techniques or installations.


    Stump grinding, on the other hand, is much less labour-intensive. During a grinding job, an arborist will use a shredding machine to break the stump down into tiny woodchips. These chips can then be used as mulch for plants.

  • What happens to tree roots after grinding?

    It is important to understand that grinding does not break down tree roots. They will naturally start to decay – a process that can last over a decade. If you’re not sure whether to choose grinding or removal services, don’t hesitate to talk to one of our professional arborists today.
