After having a tree cut down, you might be tempted to leave the stump behind. While it may seem harmless at first, that leftover stump can cause more problems than it’s worth. At Roberto Affordable Land & Tree Service, we provide expert stump removal in the greater Watertown, MA area. Here are five reasons why it’s worth eliminating stumps from your property. They Attract Pests A decaying tree stump becomes an open invitation for pests like termites, ants, and other wood-boring insects. As the wood decomposes, it creates a hospitable environment for these pests to thrive. Over time, these insects might spread to other parts of your yard—or worse, to your home. Eliminating the stump cuts off the source and helps prevent potential infestations from getting out of control. They Can Become Safety Hazards Tree stumps can easily turn into tripping hazards, especially if they’re located in areas where children play or where people frequently walk. Even if you’re familiar with your yard, guests might not be as careful. Accidents involving tree stumps can lead to injuries and potential liability issues for homeowners. Removing stumps helps create a safer outdoor space. They Can Interfere with Landscaping Tree stumps can disrupt your landscaping plans and limit how you use your yard. Whether you're planting a garden or installing a patio, a stump in the middle of the space gets in the way. Removing stumps gives you a clean slate, making it easier to design and maintain your landscape the way you want. They Detract from Curb Appeal Even a neatly trimmed lawn can look unkempt if there are old stumps scattered around. Stumps break up the natural flow of a yard and draw attention away from the more attractive parts of your landscaping. If you’re planning to sell your home, potential buyers might see stumps as a sign of neglect or an added task they’ll have to handle. Removing them improves the overall appearance of your property and adds to its visual value. They May Cause Regrowth or Fungus Issues In some cases, tree stumps can start to sprout new growth, leading to unattractive shoots and unwanted maintenance. These shoots can be persistent and may require repeated trimming. Stumps can also promote fungal growth, which not only looks bad but might spread to nearby plants. Removing the stump completely helps stop these problems at the source.

Big, healthy trees add value to your property, but when they begin to show signs of decline, they can pose serious safety risks. Deciding to remove a big tree is never easy, especially if it’s been part of your landscape for years. However, there are certain warning signs that indicate it’s time to consider tree removal for the safety of your home and loved ones. At Roberto Affordable Land & Tree Service, we provide expert tree removal in the greater Watertown, MA area. Here are four signs that your big tree may need to come down. The Tree Is Leaning Dangerously While some trees naturally grow with a slight lean, a sudden or severe lean can signal structural instability. If a tree begins leaning toward your home, driveway, or another area where people or property are at risk, it could mean that the root system is failing. Soil erosion, storm damage, or disease can cause the roots to loosen, increasing the chances of the tree falling. A leaning tree should be inspected promptly by a professional to determine if removal is necessary. Major Trunk Damage Is Visible The trunk is the backbone of the tree, and when it shows significant signs of damage, the entire structure may be compromised. Deep cracks, splits, or large cavities in the trunk can indicate internal decay. A weakened trunk increases the risk of breakage, making it unsafe to leave the tree standing. The Roots Are Damaged or Uplifted A healthy root system is essential for the stability and nourishment of a big tree. If you notice that roots are lifting out of the ground, appear rotted, or have been cut due to nearby construction, the tree may no longer be securely anchored. Damaged roots can also lead to nutrient deficiencies and tree decline. A tree with a compromised root system is more likely to fall during strong winds or heavy storms. The Tree Is Too Close to Structures Sometimes, even a healthy tree becomes a hazard simply due to its location. Large trees that are growing too close to your home, garage, or power lines can cause serious problems as they grow. Their roots can damage foundations, while their branches may scrape roofs or interfere with electrical wires. In these cases, removal is often the safest solution.
