Is within an powerful obstruction one can buy to maintain neighboring tree roots from encroach on one's property? My neighbor just planted a giant maple tree on the property line...
My neighbor just planted a giant maple tree on the property line right away behind my sun garden. Maples are notorious for roots rising to the surface - surrounded by a few short years this will ruin my garden. Ruin my garden = ruin my life - HELP!
Answers: Though the sensible solution would be to physically remove the encroaching roots next to a saw and shovel, this seems to be more feasible:

Whether you ask your neighbors to put that or not, its your choice. I show, a root will grow where ever it extends to.
