Root Barrier Installation Houston

Concerned about your foundation moving? You may need a root barrier. Many homeowners may have trees that are close to the foundation and structure of their home. While it may be visually appealing, it could lead to a costly issue: foundation movement.

Trees have extensive root structures underground that could extend for many feet all around their base. Sometimes, these roots are extensive enough to reach areas that are directly underneath your home’s foundation. If these roots continue to grow, your home’s foundation could start to shift and crack. As a result, you could be looking at thousands of dollars in foundation repair. However, there is a preventative measure that homeowners can take called root barriers. Nature’s Tree Removal is Houston’s local root barrier installation expert. We have helped tons of homeowners all over the Houston TX area protect their foundations from intrusive tree roots.

What Is A Root Barrier?

Root barriers are essentially like a wall that is installed in the soil around trees or around the foundation of the home or business to protect certain areas of your property from tree root damage. Nature’s Tree Removal uses root barriers that are made of geotextile fabric or eco-friendly plastic, depending on the situation. These materials help change the course of root growth while not preventing natural root growth and not having an adverse effect on other plant or tree life on your property.

Root barriers can be installed on residential or commercial property. Root barriers offer two key benefits. For one, root barriers help tree preservation. The other major benefit is that a root barrier can help prevent damage to your foundation, driveway(s), and/or sidewalk(s). If you are looking for a way to protect your home or business from the damage that tree roots can cause, call Nature’s Tree Removal today to learn more.

Are Root Barriers Safe For Trees?

Absolutely! We wouldn’t offer them if they weren’t. Our entire business is based around preserving trees as much as possible while also taking safety and property protection into consideration. Our root barriers simply direct the tree roots to grow in a different direction, away from your home or business rather than causing any harm to the tree itself. Trees can stay healthy while their roots grow, getting the moisture and nutrients they need without damaging your foundation.
