Root removal or stump grinding?
Stump grinding is the most economical option, the stump is ground to below ground level and the roots are left to decompose naturally. This is suitable in most cases where the roots do not cause active damage.
Full root removal is necessary when roots are actively threatening foundations, drainage pipes or paving, or when the area needs to be fully prepared for building or paving. We advise on the right approach after a free on-site inspection.
When is root removal necessary?
- Roots under paving: lifting paving slabs, driveways and patios
- Foundation damage: roots growing into or near house foundations
- Drainage problems: roots blocking drainage or sewage pipes
- Resprouting stumps: stumps sending up new shoots
- Before building: area needs to be root-free for new construction
