Stump Grinding in Letchworth Garden City

Stump grinding refers to the process in which the stump of a tree that has been felled is taken out. Generally after tree felling several inches of the trunk and the root system are kept in the earth, making the adjacent space unusable and also potentially appealing to insect pests or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your back garden has stumps in the earth, having them cleared can open up the location, providing you with added space which could be used to broaden your lawn area or create fresh spaces to lay patio or decking. Experienced stump grinding businesses can take out stumps of any scale. The process frequently includes trimming the stump as low to the ground as possible using a chainsaw, and then employing specialist stump grinding machinery to grind away the stump. Stumps are ground down to about 10-12 inches beneath the soil surface to allow replanting, however in some situations landscaping projects might need the stump to be ground deeper than this. The wood chipping that is created 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 can remove it for you and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way. Furthermore, numerous professional stump grinding companies provide specialist narrow machines that may be employed if there is restricted access to your garden for instance, via a side alley.
