If you’ve ever had a tree removed from your property, you might be left with an unsightly stump remaining in your ground. Stumps not only pose a hazard to your property but they can also affect the aesthetics of your landscape. To find out more about how stump grinding works, please read on.

What Is Stump Grinding?

Stump grinding is a process used to remove tree stumps by grinding them into small wood chips or sawdust. It reduces the stump to ground level or below, eliminating any visible trace of the tree.

Stump Grinding Process

Assessment and Preparation

Before beginning the stump grinding process, our professional arborists will assess the size and location of the stump, as well as any potential obstacles that may interfere with the grinding equipment. After that, our team cleans the debris, rocks and any other obstructions that could damage the grinding equipment or cause injury.

Grinding

We use the latest equipment to grind away the stump, starting from the outer edges and working inward. The grinder’s rotating blade chips away at the wood and gradually reduces the size of the stump. If a stump grinder cannot access your stump, we use ECO plugs to degrade the stump and stop regrowth. This kills the stump without causing damage to the surrounding areas within your garden.

Cleanup

Once the stump has been ground down to the desired level, we collect the remaining wood chips and sawdust, leaving behind a clean and level surface.

Trees require care and attention to thrive. Tree pruning is one of the essential aspects of tree care and maintenance. It’s a nuanced practice that requires knowledge, skill and a deep understanding of trees. In this blog post, we at Watson & Price Tree Services Ltd will discuss this service in more detail along with its importance and different techniques.

What Is Tree Pruning?

The systematic removal of particular tree parts, including branches, buds or roots, is known as pruning. This is mainly done to enhance the appearance, health and shape of the tree. It also eliminates weak or overhanging branches and reduces the risk of property damage or personal injury from falling foliage. This also encourages robust growth and can desirably shape the tree to prevent overcrowding.

Tree Pruning Techniques

Crown Thinning: This involves selectively removing branches throughout the canopy to reduce density and enhance light penetration and air circulation. It’s highly beneficial for trees with dense foliage.

Crown Raising: In this technique, pruning professionals raise the lower branches of a tree to create clearance beneath the canopy. It allows for better pedestrian or vehicular access and enhances visibility.

Crown Reduction: This technique involves selectively reducing the size of the tree’s canopy by cutting back branches to lateral growth points. It’s done to reduce the tree’s overall size and mitigate structural issues.

Shaping: Shaping gives a tree an aesthetic shape that allows it to maintain its natural form or in some cases, to achieve a desired shape.
