While a tree stump on your property may not seem like such a big deal, tree stumps can be dangerous for not only the health of your yard but also the safety of your family. Tree stumps are a major tripping hazard for children and pets, and can cause serious injury. They also prevent your lawn from getting the maintenance that it needs because they require maneuvering around them while mowing and frequent weeding to prevent overgrowth. On top of this, they simply look unattractive. Whether you’ve just had a tree removed and want the stump eliminated as soon as possible or you’ve had a stump in your yard for a while and are finally ready to get rid of it, Melbourne Tree Removal Guys can help.

In this blog post, our tree service experts will discuss the two main methods of eliminating a stump: stump pulling and stump grinding. Read on to learn about the pros and cons of each of these techniques, and contact our arborists today to learn how we can help keep your yard beautiful, manageable, and safe.
Method 1: Stump Grinding
First, it is important to note that homeowners should never attempt to grind or remove a stump on their own. Both of these methods of stump elimination are relatively intricate and require the use of professional machinery. Stump grinding involves the use of a powerful machine to grind the stump down to its desired height so it seamlessly matches the rest of your landscape. While this takes care of the visible remains of the tree, it does still leave the tree’s roots behind, which may cause sprouts, fungi, or the stump itself to grow back up. While the roots will decay eventually, the process can take up to ten years.

Method 2: Stump Removal
Sometimes referred to as “stump pulling,” stump removal involves eliminating the entire tree from the roots up. Stump removal can be intrusive and requires the use of heavy force, so hiring a qualified arborist is essential. While stump removal does eliminate the stump altogether, it also creates a big, unattractive hole in your yard, which can be even more hazardous than the stump was. At Melbourne Tree Removal Guys, we are happy to help you fill in the hole, should you opt for stump removal.
