Tree stump stuck.

[m Ransley]

The neighbors sewer is old that is their problem. Your tree did not cause it. A good pipe a tree will not damage. You should not have cut it for that. Your neighbor could have just trimmed it off his house at his expense. The cutting also should have been the neighbors expense. If the tree was healthy your responsibility ends. If it was dead then yes you are responsible. Next time dont be so nice.Make him pay for the stump removal, he had no right to complain.

a lawyer could

as to the issues, seems "neighbor law" applies, and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction

the root invasion, if a reality, could have been repaired and the invading roots stopped with bio barrier

branch invasion is generally the responsibility of the owner of the property being invaded, but i don't hink it lends itself to open and notorious use" such that the tree owner could gain ownership of the "airspace" over the invaded property

the 1/3 or so size tree/hole in the pic you reference looks like it was at the corner of a house, feet away from the foundation, not a good location for a tree, if your tree was that near your house foundation, good idea it was removed

First to get the stump out of the ground. If it will move a little and you then can run a chain around the roots and around the whole thing to attach it succurely to the chain. Then attach the chain to your truck and start pulling with small jerks and work up to big jerks. You can pull one way the un hook from it and pull from the other way. You can work it out of the ground and when it comes loose it will come out of the ground.

Now to get it in you truck. Buy you cheap come a long from the hardware store or borrow a come along and drag the stump over to a tree with the truck and then run the chain up and over a limb and the use the come a long to pull it up and then drive your truck under it and then let it down in your truck.

large pile of mulch.>>>

The guy I hired to take down some trees did this for me. Grind them down, cover with potting soil, throw down some grass seed and it's done. I used the mulch to tame an overgrown corner of the yard.
