It appears some tree roots busted my sump discharge pipe and I'm having a rough time getting through the roots to repair the pipe. Don't make fun of me, But I did dull the chain on my saw (As I figured would happen, just not so quickly) in about 1 minute and almost cooked my Sawzall. What is the best way to remove these roots?? Wife won't let me use dynamite!
Thanks for any help, I know the answer is to dig around the root and cut it out, but I'm hoping for a shortcut!!
