Question: Should I invite construction crews to work around my trees?
Answer: Construction is a tree's worst enemy! Invite construction crews in to work around the tree and, by all means, let them trench. Trenching causes serious root damage and can only be minimized by using soil aguers.
Other construction damages occur during grading, raising the soil level, stabilizing slopes, lowering the soil level, and excavating for a building.
