Living close to swamps in Florida is quite common. Most of the inhabited residential areas in Florida were once swampland. Clearwater, FL isn’t quite swampland anymore, but being part of an isthmus on the west side of Florida tends to surround people with a lot of water. Quite often when the Florida soil here is saturated with water, older trees uproot and fall over or crack into chunks. If the latter happens, you end up with an ugly stump. Stump grinding in Clearwater, FL swamps and flooded areas is challenging, but doable.
Wait for the Water to Subside, If You Can
Grinding equipment can’t float. You will have to wait for the flood waters to recede before stump grinding by Clearwater, FL crews can begin. The ground needs to be a little bit firmer, too, because stump grinders weigh hundreds of pounds and can sink into the mud. While it isn’t ideal, waiting is what is best for the equipment.
Call to Schedule an Appointment When the Rains Slow Down and the Ground Is Firmer
When the weather finally cooperates, call to schedule a stump grinding appointment. It could mean waiting a week, a month, or several months until the less rainy season subsides in Florida and hurricane season is over. The grinding itself will take less than an hour. You can choose what to do with the chipped and ground wood and the holes left by the ground stumps.
