When to Remove a Tree Stump
Tree stumps can be physically removed at any time however, it is best that you get the tree stump removal as soon as possible. This is because the stump will start to decay, attracting termites, wood borers and insects such as ants and beetles. Leaving a tree stump also means there's potential for new tree growth to occur, with new sprouts springing up around the base of the tree. Once the root of a tree has been fully removed, home or land owners can then fill the space with top soil and turf, creating a more aesthetically appealing space.

- Faster service: Grinding can often be completed in a shorter amount of time compared to removal.

- Environmentally friendly: The resulting wood chips can be used for mulch in your garden beds, promoting plant health and water retention.
How Does Stump Grinding Machinery Work?
Our tree stump removal service works by cutting down the wood until the stump is completely gone. The stump grinder machine starts to cut the wood into sawdust, as this is the easiest way to remove the waste from your property.
Most stump grinders are moderately sized machines which are mounted on heavy duty wheels connected with a long handle. The handle enables the user to push and pull the machine and it can be adjusted to set the machine to your preferred height. The Tree Doctors have machines with braked wheels, allowing for more control in side to side movements. Whilst being powered by an engine, the machine has a sharp blade underneath. This is used to cut the stump.
