Stump Removal
Tree stumps and their roots can pose continued problems and even damage your property. ArborDocs safely removes unwanted and dangerous stumps restoring your property’s beauty. But not all stumps can or should be ground. Whether your stump is new or old, ArborDocs knows when stumps can be safely removed and helps guide you in making the best decision.
Does grinding remove the whole stump?
The definition of a tree stump is “the base of a tree that remains after the tree has been felled or cut.” Stump grinding focuses on removing this portion of the trunk down below surface level. For some trees, we recommend treating the stump before grinding to prevent aggressive species from growing back from the roots.
Are old stumps dangerous?
They can be. Besides being unsightly, stumps can pose a tripping hazard. As they decline, they become attractive to insects such as ants, roaches, and termites. Unremoved stumps also can attract fungal diseases.
Will removing my stump ruin my lawn?
Our highly-skilled and experienced team grinds over the stump and down 8-12 inches below the surface, turning your stump into mulch. Upon request, ArborDocs can also remove surface roots.
