If you have a stump in your yard, there are good reasons to remove it:

• Make room for new plantings
• Eliminate possible hostc to infectious diseases, endangering healthy trees
• Reduce pest problems (i.e. carpenter ants and termites)
• Eliminate an unsightly stump and reclaim that portion of your yard
• Remove a possible trip hazard

Note: We only perform stump removals, not tree removals, but we can provide alternate tree service recommendations
