Tree & Shrub Stump Grinding

After a tree or shrub is removed the only thing left remaining is the stump. We generally recommend that stumps should be removed, but it is not necessary. A stump left in your yard may be risk for children playing who might be running too fast to notice the obstacle. It also can be a liability if someone visiting you trips over one of the roots. If the stump is too close to your driveway or street it may not be visible at night, and a visitor parking near it could bump it and damage their car.

Soil can also change around a stump. It may settle around the old roots and leave depressions in the ground. This can also be a hazard to anyone in your yard.

Even though a tree has been removed, it is possible that some new growth may come out of the stump. Grinding a stump is the only way to be sure that some trees will not start to grow back. Insect nests may also grow in stumps as the wood rots.
