There are a variety of things to consider when deciding whether or not to remove a tree stump. Let’s take a look at some of these factors.

Methods of Stump RemovalStumps can be removed from the ground manually, or through chemical processing. Manual removal involves a variety of tools including a shovel, digging bar, chainsaw, axe, among other machinery. This means that you’ll definitely want to have a licensed professional from our team there to help you get rid of your stumps without any issue. This method is especially good for smaller tree stumps with a relatively shallow root system, or even dead or old tree stumps.
 
The chemical method is quite time-consuming and requires waiting so that the stump can become soft and then be removed. If you’re looking to get your stump out as soon as possible, this probably won’t be the most viable option for you.

When Should I Remove a Tree Stump?There are a few indicators that can help you determine if removing a tree stump is right for you. Some reasons you may want to remove a tree stump:

• It ruins the aesthetic of your yard or landscape. Decaying stumps are not usually the most visually appealing things to look at, and can even devalue your property if they are prominent in your yard.
• Can cause damage or injury. If someone is unaware of the stump, it can cause injury. Also, if you mow your lawn and miss the stump, it can cause damage to your mower or weed wacker.
• Can bring pests. Sometimes when the stump begins to decay, pests and rodents find a new home. Termites, ants, and other small animals may start to frequent the stump.
• You want to plant new trees. If you still have the old root systems of your previous plants, they can affect the success of planting new trees in that area. If you want to start to grow new plants or start a new project in that area, it’s better to remove the stump completely.
