Whether removing a stump or clearing your yard, you’ll probably find yourself cutting into the ground beneath. Tree roots grow deep, and the soil around them is often very hard, making digging out stumps difficult and dangerous. Fortunately, many companies offer stump removal services for those who live near forests. A good company should take care of every aspect of the project, including safety measures, equipment maintenance, and clean-up after the work is done.

Does It Make A Mess?

Stump grinders can grind away large amounts of tree trunks into tiny sawdust, ready for your garden. In addition, you can use them to create wood chip mulches, which are ideal because they decompose quickly without releasing any unpleasant odours, leaving you with a fresh layer of organic matter every spring. You may feed them back to our mill, where they will be ground again, or keep them as you wish, but we will gladly transport them offsite. Our company will happily collect all these items and dispose of them properly after completing the job.

Isn’t This Something I Can Do Myself?

It cannot be sprayed with wood chips onto someone unless they are wearing protective gear. Grinders aren’t hazardous machines, and no parts of them are likely to fly off. You would have to take out your anger on a wooden surface, so why not just go outside and punch a tree? No matter how good a job you think you did, you wouldn’t feel right about damaging a tool meant for grinding meat. And even if you were somehow successful in destroying the grinder, getting caught is almost certainly worse.

Advantages of Grinding VS Stump Removal

When removing stumps, we should consider what material Is, whether soft or hard, if they cause any damage to the soil, and how high above ground level they reach. Hardwood stumps are much harder to get rid of and should be removed before planting, whereas softwoods generally do not pose as much danger and can be left until after planting.

Stump removal is preferable to excavation because it minimises the disruption of topsoil and allows us to reuse the waste product; however, if the area is inaccessible, excavating is the only viable option if the room is unavailable. This method requires the least effort but can also be dangerous and require heavy machinery.
