Q: Can I cut exposed tree roots without killing the tree?

• <div><p>Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than <b>three inches</b> in diameter won&rsquo;t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-prune-tree.htm">Proper tree pruning techniques</a> and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best time of year to prune a tree?

• <div><p>Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.</p></div>

Q: How do you cut down a tree without a chainsaw?

• <div><p>You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. </p></div>

Q: Can I sue if my neighbor’s tree roots damage my property?

• <div><p>In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor&rsquo;s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it&rsquo;s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner&rsquo;s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.</p></div>

Q: Will a tree live again after it dies?

• <div><p>If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn&rsquo;t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.</p></div>
