Meadows, trees, shrubberies give a house the beauty that it deserves. In the west, the apartment structures differ from people to people as they stay either in attached or detached, single or multi-unit housing. But whatever may be the type of house, generally garage, basement or a garden area becomes part and parcel of these mighty structures. Lawns are then beautifully decorated with variety of plants, trees, grass and so on. But these structures grow old with time so does the surrounding beauty. Trees which grow with time are apt to cut by owner and while doing so, many huge trees, stumps and roots still remain intact.
What happens to these stumps?
Tree Stumps could become hindrances to the property and ruins the surrounding area. It not only occupies the free space but also makes the area look unpleasant. Also, moving around such stumps becomes dangerous especially for kids as they are potential to tripping which could also lead to serious injuries. In addition, the more these trees dry out they attract termites, wasps and other insects which are further prone to spread to other plants, trees and even one’s house. Further, it creates difficulty in mowing yard as it can cause damage to lawn mowers. The only intelligent solution to such residual logs is stump grinding.
Process and pricing
Earlier this was a big question when term Stump grinding was fancy, but now with awareness and lots of advertisements up by the professional grinder, people prefer them over the traditional ways and means of mowing this log. There are many organisations which take up this activity and involves price which differs depending on the fact whether person grinds it himself or hires a professional. If a professional is involved, pricing is based on different criteria, for example:
- Diameter of the Stump: Where average price for a diameter varies anywhere between $3-$5
- Hours involved: If a large area is given to be cleared it might involve additional hours and charged accordingly
- Number of Stumps: This is one of the common methods used where a flat rate is charged based on number of stumps involved.
Why Professional Grinders
There are few who take this activity onto themselves rather than hiring someone just to save on cost as self-grinding involves bearing charges of grinder alone. But there are few points that these people fail to consider like
- Is the machinery which they hire capable of taking up the tasks or is it too old?
- Is it safe to use them directly without prior experience and so on?
Generally, stumps which are old enough are easier to be treated on own but this doesn’t work with all kinds of stumps. Thus it’s best to hire a professional specialist to ensure quality and safety. Stump grinding helps in preventing roots from sprouting which can be further utilised for planting other plants of interest. Also, in long-term, a well maintained lawn increases the value of overall property and retains aesthetics of the lawn in-whole.
