Stump grinding involves removing the tree stump from the ground by using a powerful stump grinding machine with rotating cutting disks that chip the wood away. It is the natural second step to take after having trees in your property removed. Tree Change NQ - Townsville Tree Care, we offer comprehensive stump grinding services.

Dried out tree stumps are perfect breeding grounds for pests and fungi. The longer you keep rotting stumps, the more you risk surrounding trees and plants to infection. Moreover, the stumps will turn into eyesores over time and will begin to smell, attracting bacteria-carrying flies.

Complete Stump Grinding Services

You need special machinery to completely remove a tree stump, it can’t be done with chainsaws or axes etc, it is a very specialised and skilled service that requires planning and experience. It isn’t just a question of grinding the stump, the machinery must be able to access the stump, often near other trees which mustn’t be harmed. Before we begin grinding, we may need to dig around the stump to remove soil so we can get to the roots.

After the stump has been satisfactorily ground down to a pulp, we will then clear up the loose woodchips and take them away and fill the hole so it can blend back in with the topsoil in the surrounding area. Stump grinding is often included in our tree removal services but is also available on its own.

Benefits of Stump Grinding

Here are just a few reasons to consider a professional stump grinding service:

More Space: Stumps means roots are left above or near the surface meaning there’s a lot of ground around the stump you can’t use for a lawn or tarmac etc. this can be reclaimed with stump grinding and removal.
Environmentally Friendly: Digging out the whole root system (including stump) is possible for some trees but it’s very invasive. Stump grinding also leaves natural organic chippings which can be used as valuable mulch for your garden.
No Pests or Fungus: Over time, nearly all stumps will begin to rot and break down, but this attracts pests and fungus which can affect other plants and trees nearby, as well as become a health hazard to humans. Carpenter Ants and Termites can set up home and start to cause damage to surrounding areas. Fungus smells and has human health issues but also attracts more insects so grinding the stump is the best way to avoid all these issues.
