Reasons for tree removing include: 

• Threat to building or property utilities
  This is the most common reason. Trees and vegetation in our area grow at a rapid rate in height and mass they are quickly over towering and consume the space around them left for too long ,severe structural damage to buildings and cars and property utilities may occur. 
• Storm damage
  Due to heavy rainfall, high winds or storms, trees can become damaged and their root stability undermined , canopies can be snapped out and large branches left hanging , causing a high potential for damage to anything in its drop zone.
• Infection, Disease Or Infestation 
  Trees that are infested with pests like borer and termites, pose a health and safety threat. A termite-infested tree has a high chance of collapsing.
• Underground Damage 
  Overgrown root systems can damage underlying areas of your home, such as your foundations, plumbing and septic systems. In this instance, root excavation and stump grinding could be necessary.
• Dead/Dying Trees 
  Is a common threat in our area, dead and dying are a health and safety risk to people, buildings and vehicles. It is best to remove them before they collapse due to storms or winds and cause damage or injury. 
• Invasive Or Overpowering Trees 
  Trees, which extract too many nutrients from the ground, can cause surrounding plants to suffer from stunted growth and ill health. They could also be a species of invasive plant, which could overgrow and multiply extensively. 

Stump Grinding

After removal, a tree stump can’t be left there, because of the risk of regrowth from the stump. Hart Tree Service is your stump removal solution.

Have A Stump To Grind? Then Contact Us Today

When a tree is removed from your residential or commercial property, the stump must also be removed. If the left behind, it could become an expensive problem in the future. Hart Tree Service is your stump grinding and removing solution.

Why Remove A Tree Stump?

Why do we have to remove tree stumps after felling a tree? There are some species of tree which will continue to grow if the stump and root system have been left in the earth, even though the tree has been removed! Stumps should be removed to prevent rotting and attracting pests or infestation such as termites and disease. Also, if the stump, along with the root system, is left behind it can interfere with future construction projects you might perform – such as paving, laying foundations or extending the building. A stump protruding from the ground might even be a tripping or injury risk.

Quick, Convenient Stump Removal

Hart Tree Service provides the labourers, expertise and equipment necessary for grinding unwanted stumps away after a tree has been felled. The stump grinding machine we use is large, fast and effective. The tree trunks are crushed into smaller, more manageable chips that can be used in the garden for landscaping and decorative purposes. If the stump is in an area that is tight, small and difficult to access, we’ll use a smaller stump grinding machine. We’ll also clean the area thoroughly when the job is completed, and remove all chips and debris. For quick and easy cleanup, we use a skid steer machine with a 4-in-1 bucket so that all waste materials are removed as effectively as the stump.

Let Us Do The Job For You

At Hart Tree Service we pride ourselves on providing professional, expert and trustworthy stump grinding and removal services. We don’t use chemicals or hazardous substances to kill the stump when we begin the process of removal and grinding. Dangerous chemicals are bad for the environment, your garden, home, animals and loved ones. We remove the stump and root, clean the area, and remove excess debris.
