How Roots Can Damage Your Foundation

O Qv 2D 11W 2L Jie Od NSU Wcn 2Xxsk X Uppcsw

Tree roots can cause significant damage to your home's foundation, often without homeowners even realizing it until it's too late. This is primarily due to their growth pattern and natural search for water and nutrients, which can lead them to interact negatively with your home's foundation. Here are some ways in which tree roots can cause damage:

Physical Pressure: Tree roots can exert considerable pressure on your foundation as they grow. Even though roots aren't typically strong enough to crack a solid foundation, they can exploit existing cracks, widening them, and causing further damage.

Soil Displacement: As roots grow and spread, they displace the soil around them. This displacement can lead to uneven soil levels, causing your home to settle unevenly and potentially damaging the foundation.
Moisture Absorption: Tree roots absorb moisture from the soil. In areas close to the foundation, this can result in the soil shrinking away from the structure, leading to movement and possible damage.

Root Intrusion: In some cases, roots can penetrate the foundation directly, especially if it's made of a softer material like brick or has pre-existing damage. This intrusion can weaken the foundation and lead to structural problems.

It's essential to regularly check for signs of root damage and take preventative measures, such as installing root barriers, to protect your home's foundation. Remember, the cost of prevention is far less than the expense of repairing extensive foundation damage.

How Are Root Barriers Installed?

As a professional foundation repair company, we frequently install root barriers to protect foundations from tree root intrusion. Here’s a concise guide on how root barriers are installed:

Assessment and Planning: We start with a thorough property assessment, identifying tree species, root system extent, and proximity to structures. This helps us determine the optimal location for the root barrier.
Excavation: A trench is excavated between the tree and the structure to be protected. The trench depth typically ranges from 30 to 48 inches, depending on tree type and soil conditions, and is about 2 inches wide.
Installing the Barrier: The root barrier material, usually high-density polyethylene (HDPE), is placed vertically in the trench, extending slightly above ground to prevent roots from growing over it.
Securing the Barrier: The barrier is securely anchored in the trench. Edges are sealed or overlapped to create a continuous, impenetrable wall against root growth.
Backfilling the Trench: The trench is backfilled with the excavated soil, which is compacted to eliminate air pockets and ensure stability.
Final Inspection: A final inspection ensures the barrier is properly installed without gaps or weaknesses, verifying its effectiveness.

Why Professional Installation Matters:

Professional installation ensures the barrier is correctly placed and secured, providing long-term protection for your foundation and other structures.
