Stump Grinding in Wales

Stump grinding is the procedure where the stump of a tree that has been previously felled is taken out. Usually during tree felling a few inches of the trunk and the root structure are retained in the earth, making the neighbouring space impractical to use and also potentially appealing to pests or harbouring tree diseases like honey fungus. If your back garden has stumps in the soil, extracting them could open up the space, providing you with more space to improve your lawn area or add fresh spaces to fit patio or decking. Competent stump grinding businesses can extract stumps of any size. The procedure typically involves slicing the stump as low to the ground as possible working with a chainsaw, and then making use of specialist stump grinding equipment to grind away the stump. Stumps are ground down to about 10-12 inches under the dirt surface to permit replanting, although sometimes landscaping projects might need the stump to be removed deeper than this. The wood chipping that is 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 can remove it for you and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way. Furthermore, many skilled stump grinding companies offer specialist small machines that may be employed if there is restricted access to your garden such as through a side alley.
