Why Remove Tree Stumps?
Many homeowners consider leaving stumps in place to avoid the removal cost, but this decision often leads to bigger expenses and problems down the road. Here's why professional stump removal is a smart investment:
- Safety Hazards: Stumps create tripping hazards for children, guests, and anyone navigating your yard, especially after dark or when hidden by grass
- Pest Attraction: Decaying stumps attract termites, carpenter ants, beetles, and other wood-boring insects that can spread to your home or healthy trees
- New Growth: Stumps often produce new shoots that drain resources and create an unsightly cluster of weak growth that requires ongoing maintenance
- Disease Spread: If the tree was removed due to disease, the stump can harbor pathogens that spread to nearby healthy trees and plants
- Lawn Maintenance: Stumps make mowing, edging, and other yard work difficult and can damage lawn equipment
- Property Value: Visible stumps detract from curb appeal and can lower your property value or make your home harder to sell
Stump Grinding vs. Complete Removal
We offer both stump grinding and complete stump removal depending on your needs and plans for the area. Stump grinding is the most popular and cost-effective option, using specialized machinery to grind the stump 6-12 inches below ground level. This process leaves the roots to decay naturally underground while eliminating the visible stump and allowing you to plant grass, flowers, or even new trees in the area.
Complete stump removal involves extracting the entire stump and major root system, which is necessary for land and lot clearing projects, construction sites, or when the root system could interfere with underground utilities or structures. While more labor-intensive, complete removal ensures no roots remain that could cause future problems.
Our Stump Grinding Process
When you choose AllSetPro for stump removal, we start by assessing the stump size, location, and surrounding landscape to determine the best approach. Our state-of-the-art stump grinders can access tight spaces and work around existing landscaping features without causing damage to your property.
We grind the stump well below the surface, typically 6-12 inches down, which is deep enough to plant grass or other vegetation. The grinding process creates wood chips that we can remove completely or spread as mulch in your landscape beds if you prefer. We fill the resulting hole with soil and clean up all debris, leaving your yard ready for whatever comes next.
