While trees can add beauty and ambience to any property, when chopped down they leave behind unsightly stumps that can pose several hazards to homeowners. An unexpected stump in your yard can be easy to trip over, especially for kids at play, and can be disruptive if you want to do any sort of landscaping or adjustments to your yard, like installing a driveway, a pool, or just gardening generally. They can even attract termites to the area around your home. The removal of termites can be difficult, time consuming, and expensive, and their presence can put your home at risk for long term structural damage.

 

This is why stump removal is often the best option to consider when dealing with a stump. However, the removal of a stump can be a long and difficult process on one’s own. Not only is stump removal potentially several days of work, it requires a large quantity of tools such as chainsaws, hoes, and axes. And this is not to mention the difficulty of getting to the roots of the tree and removing them, which often go so deep that you run the risk of ruining your yard. Instead of going through such an extensive and difficult process, why not work with your local Syracuse NY tree removal service Stumpbusters? Not only do we cut back on your labor, but we also bring in a specialized machine called a stump grinder to cut down on time spent in the removal process.

 

Essentially, the stump grinder wears away at the stump until it’s nothing more than sawdust, allowing it to be easily removed and creating eco-friendly, minimal waste. What might take several days is cut back to just a couple hours, after which your yard will be pristine, stump free, and even easier to enjoy and relax in.

The next problem is just how you are going to get rid of it. Deciding to do it by yourself does not only take so much of your time, as it might take you a day or two and money, as you would certainly need a slew of tools like chainsaw, hoe, and ax. It also takes so much effort hacking and picking and digging, not to mention staying under the harmful heat of the sun. And more often than not, nobody has ever been very successful about do-it-yourself stump removal since the roots of most trees are buried so deep that you might just end up ruining your yard.
