Root Barriers - Lee Sprinkler, Drainage, and Foundation Preservation

DO TREES AFFECT YOUR HOME’S FOUNDATION IN CARROLLTON? ABSOLUTELY!

A skillful installation of root barriers in Carrollton can yield a substantial impact, potentially postponing or even negating the necessity for foundation repairs. These barriers can effectively collaborate with corrective piers, ensuring their enduring effectiveness.

When trees flourish in close proximity to a foundation, they possess the ability to significantly modify the moisture levels within the underlying soil. Their root systems extract significant amounts of water from the soil, leading to noticeable volume fluctuations such as shrinkage and expansion. As a result, portions of the foundation lacking proper support could undergo settling. To address this issue, various solutions are at your disposal, including adjusting watering schedules, removing the tree(s), or contemplating the implementation of root barrier(s) to mitigate the influence exerted by trees or shrubs.
