Tree stumps can pose serious hazards to your home, business, or other property if not properly removed. Unfortunately, some people choose to use chemical treatment for tree stump removal at their peril; others go to Tree Removal Companies. Potassium nitrate, sulfuric acid, and even nitric acid are all known to be potentially dangerous substances when misused. Chemical treatment should only be undertaken by people with experience who use proper care and supervision, following appropriate label directions.

 

Before tree stump removal can be performed safely, it is important to understand the severity of the situation. If the stump has only a superficial wrinkle on its surface, it may only be necessary to use a sander and a rotary drill bit. This will expose the wood to extreme temperatures and speed up the decay process. A thorough rotary cut may be needed to dispose of the mass.

 

To determine what tools you will need to remove a tree stump, you must know what tools will be required to remove it safely. The three main tree removal tools include a stump pick, a stump ax, and a stump hoe. Stump knives are often used but are generally unnecessary due to the rapid nature of the decay.

 

Tree stumps should not be moved unless the professionals have permission. Even then, only in large amounts. Stump removal requires specialized equipment and tools; any attempt to move large amounts could prove fatal. For these reasons, you should never attempt the removal yourself; contact a professional tree service like Callaway or Plano for your tree stump removal needs.

 

A good strategy for any tree stump removal job is to cover the area with mulch. Many companies that specialize in yard work will also offer various options for mulching your yard, including chemical options that will help the process go more smoothly. The method by which the stump is removed depends on a few factors. The most common way is for a worker to climb up onto the tree, lift it with a strap or rope, dig a hole, and scoop out the roots.

Once the stump has been removed, it can often be replaced with a plastic tarp. The plastic tarp should be kept closed at all times to avoid rain or accidental drainage. If the tree stump poses a danger to your home, you should contact a contractor specializing in tree removal.
