Q 1 In next doors garden, right at the left hand side, at the bottom, is a tree, whose roots are pushing up the final 2 paving slabs of the path that runs to our back gate.
If I lift the paving, how can I cut back the roots to let the paving down a few inches to allow me to open the gate? I have already taken about 3 to 4 inches off the wooden gate.
Q 2 A similar problem, I have had some of those dreaded Leylandii cut down earlier this year and there are stumps about 2 to 3 inches sticking out of the ground (about 4 inches in diameter.) How can I cut these down, or should I just put a membrane down with pebbles on top to match the rest of the garden and let nature take its course?
