Tree roots can cause significant damage to your property, making it more vulnerable to flooding and water damage. The roots of trees can grow up to 10 feet deep into the ground, creating a network of hidden tunnels that can cause problems for nearby buildings and structures.
What are tree roots and how do they impact my property?
Tree roots are the underground stems of trees that store water and nutrients. As trees grow, their roots can extend far beyond the canopy into the soil, creating a network of hidden tunnels and channels.
When tree roots grow too close to buildings or structures, they can cause problems such as:
- Flooding: Tree roots can cause water to accumulate around buildings, leading to flooding and damage to the structure.
- Cracks and splits: Tree roots can cause cracks and splits in nearby buildings and walls.
- Structural damage: Tree roots can weaken the foundation of a building, making it more susceptible to damage from earthquakes or other natural disasters.
