Why That Pesky Stump In Your Backyard Needs Professional Attention
Posted on: 10 August 2022
Australians love to take care of their yards, whether that be with special lawn mowing equipment or spending their weekends finely manicuring their lines, you will find a green thumb in nearly every household. However, there are some tasks that even your most dedicated arborist will struggle with, and spending the money to buy the proper equipment to deal with it just isn't worth it. That is where a stump grinding service comes in. Here are a few reasons why you should always leave stumps to professionals and not try to remove them on your own or risk much worse problems.
Stumps Will Beat You Down
If you do try to take out a stump on your own, then be prepared to potentially break your tools or worse yet, injure yourself. Not only are stumps exceedingly tough to remove with any material, even a tow truck, but they are also so solidly placed most of the time that unless you fully dig all around them, several feet or even metres deep, you will struggle to move them an inch. Even after all that effort, often it can take days, or even weeks to finally pry it free at which point you will have dozens of small cuts and bruises not to mention blisters at a minimum if you haven't thrown your back out.
Grinding Them To Oblivion
Stump grinding is the most cost-effective way to hide a stump from view and create a more perfect garden for your family to enjoy. While there are removal services available for stumps, unless you intend on extending your home ever the top of the stump, there really is no need to consider that option. Stump grinding buries the stump below the earth, and allows grass to return while completely obscuring the stump and spending way less time while also taking less of a toll on your back pocket.
Not Worth It To Buy Equipment For One Job
If you are a green thumb you might be tempted to buy the special grinding equipment needed to get rid of a stump, but that is simply not a good use of money. You only have one, or maybe two stumps at the most and generally, you will not see anymore in your yard for the duration of your occupancy. The grinders and machines used to destroy stumps are very expensive, and not particularly practical for any other role, which is why they are used by professionals only, who not only save you money but time too.
