A rotating cutting head includes multiple, separate, spaced-apart, parallel loops of chainsaw chains positioned around a central hub. The hub is attached to a spindle of a lawn edger. A safety shield is provided adjacent to the rotating cutting head. As the cutting head rotates, the chainsaw chains cut the tree roots. The rotating cutting head is used for resurfacing exposed tree roots to avoid tripping hazards and tree root strike damage to residential and commercial lawn maintenance equipment.
