Stump Grinding in Alva

Stump grinding describes the process where the stump of a tree that has been previously felled is extracted. Frequently after tree felling several inches of the trunk and the root structure are left in the earth, making the close-by space impractical to use as well as potentially attracting pests or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your garden has stumps in the earth, taking them out can clear the space, providing you with additional space that could be used to maximise your lawn or produce new areas to fit patio or decking. Competent stump grinding firms can get rid of stumps of any proportion. The procedure frequently demands slicing the stump as close to the ground as possible working with a chainsaw, and afterwards utilising specialised stump grinding devices to grind away the stump. Stumps are ground down to roughly 10-12 inches underneath the soil surface to enable planting, although in some circumstances landscaping projects might need the stump to be removed deeper than this. The wood chippings that are produced by the stump grinding can be either infilled back into the hole and used as compost in other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company could remove it for you and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way. Furthermore, lots of experienced stump grinding companies provide specialist thin equipment that can be employed if there is restricted access to your garden such as via a side passageway.
