Why an Old Stump Left in the Ground Becomes a Bigger Problem Over Time

Post Copy

A tree removal is only half finished if the stump stays behind. Left in the ground, a stump can take years to break down naturally, and in the meantime it attracts fungal growth, termites, and carpenter ants looking for a new home base near the house.

Stump grinding removes the visible stump and the upper portion of the root system, opening the space back up for grass, landscaping, or a new planting without waiting years for decay. It also removes the pest attractant before it becomes a bigger issue.

ACE Tree Service provides stump grinding across Birmingham, Hoover, Vestavia, Homewood, Trussville, and the surrounding Central Alabama area, whether the stump is from a recent removal or one that has been sitting for years.
