Stump Grinding

Forest Stump are a professional tree stump and root removal business with plenty of experience removing stumps with specialist stump removal equipment  

Although tree stumps can be left in the ground after felling this can lead to problems with suckering where new shoots arise from the trunk and roots  

Dead stumps can play host to root diseases like Honey fungus which can spread to other plants and trees in the garden and prove be very difficult to eradicate - see Tree Disease  

The most effective way of completely removing a stump is by using a stump grinder

The stump grinder we use has a large cutting wheel with teeth which is placed on the stump and lowered progressively until the stump is ground out

The machine is capable of grinding any size stump and can grind to a depth of 24 inches below ground level or can remove the whole stump if necessary

The stump grinder we use is 29 inches wide which is usually sufficient to accommodate most garden gates  

Chippings can be left as mulch for the garden or removed from the site

The stump hole is then back-filled and the garden left to high standard of tidiness.

Tree Disease

Forest Stump are happy to check your trees and shrubs for disease  

One of the most common diseases to infest trees is Honey Fungus

Honey Fungus (armilloria) is a fungus that frequently exists on dead plants but can become parasitic on living roots of many other plants in your garden

Tree stumps act as reservoirs of infection for diseases such as Honey fungus and should therefore be removed if possible before spreading occurs
