Stump grinding, also known as "burning the roots" is the process of removing trees that have become damaged by an earthquake, hurricane, or other disaster. Tree removal specialists are people who can help you remove trees that you have injured or who have fallen on your property. Sometimes they can help you with removing stumps, too, if you have a difficult tree to move.
There are a variety of reasons to remove tree limbs. You may want to make room for a house you're building. Maybe you have trees that are dangerously close to power lines or other structures. Perhaps you are tired of seeing dead trees in your yard. Regardless of your reason, it's important to know how to remove tree limbs so your home is safe and will stay healthy.
A good tree removal company will first assess the problem. This includes assessing whether there are any live, visible parts of the stump that could cause safety problems. They'll also check the density and health of the stump. If it's more than an inch thick, it may be too much to remove on your own.
Once the density and health of the stump is assessed, your tree removal services provider will discuss how to remove it. If they are experienced, they should be able to remove the entire thing (including all limbs and roots) from one fell swoop. In some cases, they may only need to cut branches to reach the stump. They can even access places that you wouldn't be able to otherwise.
When the job is complete, your tree removal company will usually give you detailed instructions on how to remove the stump. You may need to fill some of the holes with a filler such as polyethylene to fill up the hole and protect it from future damage. If they are familiar with the area, they should know whether or not the ground is suitable for excavation. Most companies do have a checklist of the types of excavation tools that are appropriate for your situation, but it's always a good idea to confirm this with them before the work begins.
The average cost of removing trees using this method isn't terribly expensive. This is especially true if you are dealing with mature, strong trees that are large enough to be removed safely. You can use a chain saw, an axe, or a pickax to accomplish this task. Using power lines is definitely an option, but it will add to the total cost of your project and increase the likelihood that you'll need to call a professional service to finish the job.
