DO TREES AFFECT YOUR HOME’S FOUNDATION IN GRAPEVINE? ABSOLUTELY!
Strategically introducing root barriers in Grapevine holds the promise of generating a substantial impact, potentially delaying or even obviating the necessity for foundation repairs. These barriers can work in harmony with corrective piers, ensuring their ongoing efficacy.
When trees flourish in close proximity to a foundation, they possess the capability to significantly modify the moisture levels in the underlying soil. Their root systems draw considerable quantities of water from the soil, resulting in noticeable changes in volume, such as contraction and expansion. Consequently, sections of the foundation lacking adequate support may encounter settling. The incorporation of root barrier(s) can assist in mitigating the influence exerted by trees or shrubs.
