Tree roots lifting driveway — Lodz, Łódź
Tree roots growing beneath a driveway, sidewalk, or patio can crack and lift concrete slabs, creating trip hazards and costly damage. A tree service or arborist can assess whether roots can be safely pruned without killing the tree, or whether the tree needs removal.
