Root Barriers - Lee Sprinkler, Drainage, and Foundation Preservation

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

Strategically implementing root barriers in Mansfield holds the potential to yield a significant effect, potentially postponing or even eliminating the need for foundation repairs. These barriers can synergize with corrective piers, ensuring their ongoing effectiveness.

When trees thrive in close proximity to a foundation, they have the capacity to considerably 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 might experience settling. The integration of root barrier(s) can help mitigate the impact exerted by trees or shrubs.
