Stump Grinding Boca Raton

More than just removal, stump grinding is an involved process that begins with the base of a tree being cut down approximately 4 to 6 inches below the ground, depending on the customers need. Grinding down and removing a stump entirely allows for new planting in the same area, while simply grinding it down below ground level - a less invasive process - allows the stump to remain without becoming a hazard. Heavy machinery is used both for grinding and removing, and when performed improperly by untrained hands, can result in serious injury. Professionals like East and West Boca Raton Landscaping have the right equipment and the necessary training and experience to make stump grinding or removal easy and efficient.

Another service that we perform is root pruning. The roots of a tree can extend out from the stump as much as 40 to 50 ft. in diameter, depending on the age and size of the tree. These roots can do serious damage to the structure of a home or building, damaging water mains and also impeding the growth of other trees and shrubs in the surrounding the area. When pruning the roots of the tree it is essential to stay at least 6 ft. away from the stump in order to not the damage the tree itself, as these roots are responsible for providing nutrition to the tree. If they are cut to close to the tree, the tree may die. With proper pruning so vital to the health of your trees, and with regular pruning vital to the maintenance of your home, why trust anyone else?
