SURFACE ROOT CLEANUP

Review Exposed Roots Before Disturbing Them

Exposed roots can interfere with mowing or using the yard but roots connected to a living tree are not simply disposable debris. We distinguish roots around a removed stump from roots that may support a tree that remains.

Brookhaven’s tree canopy resources require property specific tree review. Public stormwater reporting is separate from a private yard service estimate.

LOCAL PLANNING NOTES

Review The Brookhaven Work Area

Document the proposed tree work and visible condition rather than assuming a damaged tree is exempt from review.

The property address determines the governing jurisdiction. Discuss the project scope before work is scheduled.

THE WORK INVOLVED

Identify The Roots That Affect Yard Use

An exposed root beside a mower route or walkway needs a different discussion from a remaining stump. Explain where the root is and whether the tree is still standing. Cutting roots can affect a retained tree so the proposed limits need review.

  • Retained Trees
  • Work Limits

YOUR PROPERTY AFTER THE WORK

Balance Yard Access With The Trees That Remain

Improving a surface should account for living trees nearby. Ask how much root material can reasonably be addressed and what finish is practical. New soil or a changed walking route may need consideration alongside any root work.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

Brookhaven Surface Root Cleanup Questions

Can every exposed root be removed?

No. Roots supporting a living tree require particular care. The condition and connection to the tree must be reviewed first.

Is this the same as stump grinding?

No. A stump is one part of the old tree. Exposed roots can extend beyond the grinding area and need separate discussion.

Should I cut the roots before you arrive?

Leave them in place for review. Cutting roots first can affect the remaining tree and change the scope.
