Root Barriers - Lee Sprinkler, Drainage, and Foundation Preservation

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

A proficient installation of root barriers in Frisco can make a notable impact, potentially delaying or even obviating the need for foundation repairs. These barriers can effectively collaborate with corrective piers, ensuring their enduring efficacy.

When trees thrive in close proximity to a foundation, they have the capacity to significantly alter the moisture levels in the underlying soil. Their root systems draw substantial amounts of water from the soil, resulting in noticeable volume changes like shrinkage and expansion. Consequently, sections of the foundation lacking support might experience settling. To address this concern, several solutions are available, including adjusting watering schedules, removing the tree(s), or considering the implementation of root barrier(s) to mitigate the influence exerted by trees or shrubs.
