Stump Grinding in Cowes

Stump grinding is the procedure where the stump of a previously felled tree is removed. Often during tree felling several inches of the trunk and the root system are left behind in the soil, making the surrounding area impractical to use together with potentially appealing to bugs or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your garden has stumps in the soil, taking them out can clear the location, presenting you with extra space which you could use to grow your lawn area or add new spaces to install patio or decking. Experienced stump grinding companies can take out stumps of any proportion. The technique typically consists of slicing the stump as close to the ground as possible using a chainsaw, and afterwards utilising specialist stump grinding equipment to grind away at the stump. Stumps are ground down to approximately 10-12 inches below the soil surface to permit replanting, however sometimes landscaping projects might require the stump to be ground deeper than this. The wood chippings that are made by the stump grinding may be either infilled back into the hole and used as mulch in other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company can remove it and dispose of it in an eco-friendly manner. Additionally, numerous experienced stump grinding companies provide specialist small machines that may be employed if there is restricted access to your garden such as through a side alleyway.
