Remove Eyesores and Tripping Hazards Thanks to Stump Grinding Services
After having a tree removed from your property, all that remains is its stump. While stumps in your yard might not seem like an immediate issue, they aren’t the most aesthetically pleasing for those concerned with the look of their property. Stumps can also impact the health and safety of your property in different ways, and not for the better. However, getting rid of a large stump can be challenging and time-intensive. Fortunately, homeowners and businesses turn to Tree View Outdoor Services when it comes to professional stump grinding in Mattoon, Windsor, Shelbyville, and across Central Illinois. Call today!
How Stump Grinding Can Help
Directly pulling a stump out isn’t worth the intensive excavation work this requires. Instead, our tree experts specialize in stump grinding services. We use heavy-duty equipment to grind down and cut a stump into smaller pieces, allowing us to safely and more efficiently remove it. But why bother with stump grinding and removal at all? Here’s how your yard can directly benefit from this unique service:
- Improve the Look of Your Lawn – While large trees are a sight to behold, the stumps they can leave behind are less impressive, hence why you might consider stump grinding. We can remove stumps to enhance your yard’s visual appeal so that nothing can detract from its beauty.
- Create a Safer Outdoor Space – Although one large stump might be easy enough to avoid, multiple stumps can become a tripping hazard. Left behind stumps make it risky for anyone to traverse across your lawn, be they family, friends, or guests. Thankfully, stump grinding can flatten your landscape once more.
- Prevent Pest Infestations & Disease – A leftover stump can make for the perfect buffet for termites and wood-burrowing pests. Worse yet, stumps from diseased trees can still impact the health of your yard and other plant life if left unchecked. Stump grinding is the only reliable solution to stopping the spread of pests and disease.
- Make Property Maintenance Simpler – Having to mow and weed-eat around an intrusive stump continually can be a pain when it comes to lawn care. Furthermore, stumps can sprout and regrow, leading to sprouts and new tree growth you don’t want or can’t manage. Stump grinding eliminates these headaches.
Our Process
Tree View Outdoor Services’ tree professionals make quick work of any stump grinding job. We possess the right tools and equipment for fast and safe removal of stumps of varying sizes. Rest assured, when you trust our team for assistance, you can expect property care that goes above and beyond your expectations. As such, our stump grinding process entails:
- Site Preparation – Our team begins by carefully evaluating the stump and the surrounding area to ensure a safe and efficient grinding process. We clear any obstructions and discuss any concerns you might have.
- Grinding – When the site is ready, our team gets to work! We thoroughly grind the stump using machinery with rotating blades, and chip away at it until all that’s left is several inches below the surface.
- Root Cutting – Once we get low enough, we can begin cutting up large surface-level roots. Although we can’t reach roots deeply embedded into the ground, these roots will deteriorate without additional roots or a stump to connect to.
- Clean-Up – Finally, once grinding and cutting are complete, we carefully dispose of any wood chips and debris. Additionally, we can seed over the spot left behind by your stump, or simply level the surface and prepare it for future planting.
