Stump Grinding in Merthyr Tydfil

Stump grinding is the process in which the stump of a previously felled tree is cleared away. Usually during tree felling a couple of inches of the trunk and the root system are kept in the earth, making the close-by space impractical to use as well as possibly enticing bugs or harbouring tree diseases like honey fungus. If your back garden has stumps in the ground, having them taken out could open up the garden, offering additional space to grow your lawn area or add fresh spaces to fit patio or decking. Expert stump grinding firms can clear away stumps of any scale. The method typically calls for slicing the stump as low to the ground as possible by using a chainsaw, and then using specialised stump grinding machinery to grind away at the stump. Stumps are ground down to roughly 10-12 inches beneath the ground surface to enable replanting, although occasionally landscaping projects may 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 compost for other areas of your garden, or the stump grinding company could remove it for you and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way. Furthermore, lots of specialist stump grinding companies have specialist narrow equipment that can be employed if there is limited access to your garden for example, via a side alleyway.
