Root Barriers - Lee Sprinkler, Drainage, and Foundation Preservation

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

The strategic implementation of root barriers in Keller offers the potential to yield a significant impact, potentially postponing or even eliminating the need for foundation repairs. These barriers can collaborate effectively with corrective piers, ensuring their ongoing effectiveness.

When trees thrive in close proximity to a foundation, they possess the capacity to significantly alter the moisture levels within the underlying soil. Their root systems extract substantial amounts of water from the soil, leading to noticeable changes in volume, such as contraction and expansion. As a result, sections of the foundation lacking sufficient support may experience settling. The integration of root barrier(s) can help mitigate the influence exerted by trees or shrubs.
