Stump Grinding in Isle of Tiree

Stump grinding is the process in which the stump of a felled tree is removed. Often after tree felling several inches of the trunk and the root system are kept in the earth, making the neighbouring area unusable along with potentially appealing to bugs or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your back yard has stumps in the earth, having them taken out could open up the location, providing you with more space to improve your lawn size or produce new areas to lay patio or decking. Specialist stump grinding firms can get rid of stumps of any size. The method usually comprises cutting the stump as low to the ground as possible using a chainsaw, and then utilising specialised stump grinding devices to grind away at the stump. Stumps are ground down to about 10-12 inches below the soil surface to permit planting, although in some instances 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 compost in other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company could remove it and dispose of it in an eco-friendly way. Also, numerous professional stump grinding companies have specialist thin machines that could be employed if there is limited access to your garden such as through a side alleyway.
