Most tree removal projects involve cutting down the tree trunk close to the ground, but they usually do not include stump removal. However, stump grinding services are available either as an additional option alongside tree removal or if you have existing stumps that need attention. Stumps can be unsightly, creating an eyesore in an otherwise well-maintained landscape, and they may also present hazards, especially in high-traffic areas.
In residential yards, stumps occupy valuable space and can create tripping hazards for individuals and animals. Removing stumps not only improves the aesthetics of your property but also opens more usable space for outdoor activities. Leaving stumps behind can also lead to further problems—stumps can attract plant parasites, pests, or animals, and there is even a chance that regrowth could occur, leading to new growth that may eventually need to be removed again. Without complete removal, these issues could become ongoing challenges for homeowners.
