Stump Grinding in Sidcup

Stump grinding is the process in which the stump of a tree that has been felled is extracted. Generally during tree felling a couple of inches of the trunk and the root system are left in the earth, making the local area unusable together with potentially attracting pests or harbouring tree diseases such as honey fungus. If your garden has stumps in the earth, removing them can open up the location, offering extra space that you could use to broaden your lawn area or create new areas to install patio or decking. Professional stump grinding firms can extract stumps of any size. The method frequently calls for slicing the stump as low to the ground as possible using a chainsaw, and afterwards utilising specialised stump grinding equipment to grind away at the stump. Stumps are ground down to approximately 10-12 inches underneath the ground surface to permit planting, although occasionally landscaping projects might need the stump to be removed deeper than this. The wood chippings that are created 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 for you and dispose of it in an eco-friendly manner. Additionally, numerous specialist stump grinding companies offer specialist slim equipment that may be used if there is restricted access to your garden such as via a side alley.
