The Cost of Keeping a Tree Stump: More Than Just an Eyesore

That old tree stump isn't just an eyesore; it's a silent threat to your property's aesthetics, safety, and value.

At MHicks Tree Service, we transform these dormant problems into opportunities for a cleaner, safer, and more beautiful landscape, swiftly and safely.

The Unseen Dangers and Lingering Problems:

Safety Hazard A prominent stump is a prime tripping hazard for family members, pets, and visitors. The potential for injury is very real, especially in low light.
Pest Magnet Decaying wood invites termites, carpenter ants, and beetles. These infestations can easily spread from your yard to your home's structure.
Landscape Blight A decaying stump disrupts the flow of your landscaping, making a pristine yard appear neglected, which directly impacts property value in Oxford.
Space Invader Freeing up the real estate occupied by a stump opens a world of possibilities for patios, gardens, or expanded lawns.
Persistent Re-growth Dormant root systems can sprout new, unwanted shoots and suckers, leading to endless weeding and maintenance.
Mowing Obstacle Navigating a mower around a stubborn stump can damage blades, tires, and engines, leading to expensive repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What factors determine the cost of stump grinding and removal in Oxford?

The overall cost varies based on the size of the stump, tree species, depth of grinding, root system complexity, and accessibility on your Oxford property.

How long does a typical stump grinding or removal job take?

Most residential jobs for an average-sized stump are completed within 1 to 2 hours. Larger projects or root extractions naturally take longer.

Do you remove the entire root system when you grind a stump?

Grinding focuses on the visible stump and major root flare (6-12 inches deep). For full network extraction, we offer a specialized complete removal service.

What will happen to the wood chips and debris after the grinding is complete?

The chips can be used as mulch for your garden or we can haul them away as part of our comprehensive cleanup service.

I'm worried about damage to my delicate landscaping. How do you protect my property?

We use protective mats over sensitive lawn areas and carefully plan the approach to avoid existing plants and structures.

Do I need to be home during the stump removal service?

Your physical presence isn't strictly necessary as long as we have clear access to the work area and have already performed the initial assessment.
