When is a Stump Grinder Necessary?

The Importance of Professional Stump Removal

After tree felling, a tree stump is usually left behind. This leftover part of the tree may not seem like a big issue, but if left unattended, it could lead to various problems. Here at Essex Tree Brothers, we recommend removing the stump through stump grinding. Let’s look at when it is necessary, its benefits, and why you should work with the providers of the stump grinding Essex property owners trust.

The Need for Stump Grinding

Suckering is a big reason for stump removal. Suckers are shoots that sprout from the base or roots of a cut-down tree. They can consume valuable nutrients meant for other plants in your garden and make maintaining the space more challenging. On a superficial level, it can simply make your outdoor space look less appealing!
Another concern is fungal root rot, which can affect tree stumps. Decaying wood attracts pests and fungi that thrive in damp environments. These organisms can spread to nearby healthy trees, causing further damage. By getting rid of stumps, you can reduce the risk of spreading decay and disease, helping to keep the other trees and plants in your garden healthy.
