Tree stumps can be unattractive, annoying or even flat out dangerous. If you recently had a tree cut down, the odds are that you’re in the process of deciding what you will do with the stump. We share the five main benefits of tree stump grinding and why it might be necessary.
Fast & Efficient
There are stump removal options that involve chemicals or digging, but they certainly require a lot more effort, and you won’t get you a clean slate instantly.If you decide to dig the stump out, you need to ensure all roots are being dislodged. You then have to cut it, dump it, and finally, you need to fill up the hole with sand to prevent accidents.Chemical treatment won’t work instantly, and it’s going to take several weeks or even months for the stump to rot. After this, you need to dig out the stump, remove it and fill in the void. If this sounds like too much work and effort, stump grinding might be the way to go. A particular stump grinding machine can help remove the stump from the ground in a fast & efficient manner.
Prevent insect infestation
Stumps left forgotten on your property are very attractive to termites and other insects. Over time these may spread over to your home, where they can cause significant damage.
Enhance the safety of your yard
Stumps can be a major trip hazard for your children or anyone walking around your property. By removing the stump, you reduce the chance of someone falling over or onto the stump and injuring themselves.
Improve Aesthetics
Tree stumps can let your property down. While your yard may be well-kept, a tree stump can make it look neglected. By removing the stump, your property will have more visual appeal, which would be particularly important when you’re selling your property.
