Root Removal & Root Barrier Installation FAQ's

How do I know if tree roots are causing damage to my property?

Cracked or lifted sidewalks, foundation cracks, and slow drains near tree root systems are all common signs of root-related damage.

Is it safe to remove roots without harming the tree?

In many cases, yes, though it depends on the size and location of the roots; we assess this carefully to avoid destabilizing the tree.

What is a root barrier, and how does it work?

A root barrier is a physical barrier installed underground that redirects root growth downward or away from a specific structure or area.

Can root barriers be installed around an existing mature tree?

Yes, root barriers can be installed near existing trees, though the process requires careful planning to avoid damaging the tree's current root system.

Will removing roots near my foundation solve the problem permanently?

Root removal addresses the immediate issue, but pairing it with a root barrier helps prevent the same problem from recurring in the future.
