What Is A Stump Grinder?

5 Reasons Why You Should Remove a Tree Stump
When you hire a professional Sydney tree removal company to remove a tree on your property chances are you will need to decide whether or not to pay to remove the stump. If you’re having a hard time deciding consider these factors when deciding what to do with the tree stump!
1 – Stumps aren’t pretty. Aesthetically speaking, the sight of a stump definitely isn’t appealing. If you’re meticulous about your yard and landscaping, stump grinding is well worth it. Alternatively just stick a pot plant on it or bury it with mulch!
2 -Stumps are hazardous. Tree stumps can be a trip hazard, especially for children & elderly. And if a neighbor trips, it may be a liability that falls into your hands!
3 – Stumps can re-grow. Sometimes leaving the tree stump behind will cause the tree to re-shoot and possibly turn into a full size tree again. Paying to remove the same tree twice isn’t fun 🙂 Alternatively you can apply lots of poison to kill the tree stump if its a species that will grow back!
4 – Stumps can attract insects. When you leave stumps in your lawn, the decaying tree takes a long time to rot away completely. While it’s decaying, the stump may attracts beetles, termites, ants and other wood-boring pests that could attack your house. We don’t recommend people stress about removing a stump for this reason as insects such as termites can fly from miles away to eat your house but sometimes it’s better to be safe than sorry!
5 – Stumps take up precious yard space. Especially if you don’t have a very large yard, the space you lose from the stump and roots may occupy a lot of space. Just think, you can use that space for a vegetable garden!
Typically, you’ll spend extra money stump grinding, but it just might be well worth it. Call us today if you have any questions about stump grinding!
Difficult Access Stump Removal Sydney
In areas such as Sydney access becomes a major problem for machinery. Many tree stumps are in raised gardens beds or down hundreds of stairs on waterfronts etc. Many Sydney tree loppers will tell you that these stumps can’t be removed as these difficult access stumps are usually a nightmare to remove and most importantly many tree companies don’t own the right equipment.
We have recently purchased an Alpine Magnum Stump Grinder which is the answer to these difficult access stump grinding jobs in Sydney.
The Alpine Magnum stump grinder is basically a large chainsaw with a rotating cutting disk attached. It can be carried by one person and fit just about anywhere.
