You want 12" blades for what you're doing (cutting roots in the dirt). A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words. Especially In The DIY Chatroom.
Roots pushing up bricks on patio - DIY Home Improvement Forum
网页2010年7月19日 — Cut the roots and install a root barrier 24" depth to keep the roots from growing again under the patio. A clean cut on the roots will heal better than a ragged cut. If you are cutting large roots - 2-3" in diameter or more- you may damage the tree. The further away the cuts are from the tree, the less likely you are to cause damage. These are ...
Walkway near big trees--how to deal with roots!
网页2008年6月22日 — The problem is the walkway from the gate to the concrete steps. This area is shaded on the left by a very old Magnolia tree with large roots, many that have risen above ground.

Moss/roots around toilet flange - DIY Home Improvement Forum
网页2019年2月8日 — Moss/roots around toilet flange. I pulled up a toilet I had set maybe 10yrs prior due to a leak at the wax ring. There is a 1/2" clearance gap around the toilet flange where the tile is cut back, and this gap had a bunch of fine mossy roots growing in the standing water from the leak. I can't see the origin of these roots but it may be coming ...
My Septic drainfield must be filled with roots, what do I do?

Inspecting a septic tank is VERY DANGEROUS, since the tank may be filled with toxic gases, and even after pumping entering the tank requires special training, and special …
Oak tree roots under concrete driveway - DIY Home Improvement …
网页2020年8月20日 — Is this lifting just on the edge or farther under the driveway? Maybe a picture or 2. The extreme would be to remove a section of the concrete, make the repairs, then replace the concrete as needed. If the root is just along the edge you might be able to cut it and remove it from the side. Guessing without pictures.
Is it OK to cut Maple Tree small surface roots?
网页2021年10月2日 — But even they won't do their best fighting maple roots. I think, honestly, you'd be better to do without them, and stick with nice decoration of non-plant types. Other trees with deeper roots, like many oaks and walnuts, are much better to garden under. If the maple is nice and you like it, I'd leave it there, and do as I initially suggested.
