Stump Grinding in Dunbartonshire

Stump grinding describes the procedure in which the stump of a previously felled tree is cleared away. Usually during tree felling a few inches of the trunk and the root structure are kept in the ground, making the surrounding area unusable as well as potentially attracting pests or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your back yard has stumps in the ground, removing them could open up the location, providing you with added space that could be used to extend your lawn size or provide new areas to fit patio or decking. Expert stump grinding businesses can get rid of stumps of any scale. The technique typically comprises trimming the stump as close to the ground as possible utilising a chainsaw, and then employing specialist stump grinding equipment to grind away the stump. Stumps are ground down to roughly 10-12 inches underneath the ground surface to allow for replanting, although sometimes landscaping projects might need the stump to be ground deeper than this. The wood chipping that is produced by the stump grinding can be either infilled back into the hole and used as mulch for other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company could remove it and dispose of it in an eco-friendly way. Additionally, numerous specialist stump grinding companies have specialist slim machines that could be used if there is restricted access to your garden for instance, via a side alleyway.
