Stumps

Most tree companies do not include the price for the stumps, when they give you a price on tree removal. Stumps are usually extra. Although most tree companies do have a stump grinder or someone they recommend.

Most stumps are ground down 4 inches under ground level. Stumps can be a hazard in many ways. If stumps are left up 6 to 8 inches , you can back over it and tear out under your vehicle. If they are left 3 to 4 inches, you could tear up your lawn mower. If you leave 1 or 2 inches, grandma or the neighbor could trip over them.

Grandma might not sue you, but the neighbor might!

You just can’t cut stumps low enough with a chainsaw to keep them from being a dangerous hazard.
I cut trees in Hernando county Florida, Brooksville, Spring hill, and Weeki wachi. I usually spray my stumps with orange marking paint, because we have a unusually high amount of lawyers in hernando county.

When we at Jon Davis tree service & removal LLC remove trees for the county, they have us grind the stumps or leave them up 4 inches to avoid liability. I would always recommend you to have the stumps removed if you have the money on hand. Other then having it ground out or dug out, there is no other quick way for a stump to disappear. Jon Davis Tree Service removes stumps just as USA Tree Company and Service does.

While a small palm stump may rot away in 6 months, a big oak stump may take up to 20 years. There are products they have out to help speed up the process of decay like stump rot. Found out stores such as, Wal- mart, Lowes, and Home depot, ect.

But the best way is just to have it ground out. That will do away with all hazardous liability.
