Root cutting work generally involves the removal or trimming of underground roots from trees or plants to manage their growth, prevent damage to structures, or facilitate landscaping projects. The process may include excavating around the root zone, using tools such as saws, pruners, or specialized machinery to cut roots at appropriate depths and locations. When evaluating requests for root cutting, details such as the type and size of the plant, the extent of root removal needed, the purpose of the work, and potential impacts on the plant's health or nearby structures are important considerations to ensure appropriate and safe execution.
