Stump Grinding in Dundee

Stump grinding describes the process in which the stump of a tree that has been felled is extracted. Frequently during tree felling a couple of inches of the trunk and the root structure are left behind in the earth, making the local area unusable together with possibly enticing insect pests or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your back garden has stumps in the earth, taking them out can open up the location, delivering added space which you could use to expand your lawn size or create new spaces to lay patio or decking. Specialist stump grinding businesses can remove stumps of any proportion. The technique commonly consists of trimming the stump as low to the ground as possible by using a chainsaw, and afterwards utilising specialised stump grinding machinery to grind away at the stump. Stumps are ground down to about 10-12 inches beneath the dirt surface to enable replanting, although occasionally landscaping projects may require the stump to be removed deeper than this. The wood chippings that are produced by the stump grinding may be either infilled back into the hole and used as mulch for other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company can remove it and dispose of it in an eco-friendly manner. Furthermore, many professional stump grinding companies provide specialist slim equipment that can be employed if there is limited access to your garden for instance, through a side alley.
