What Are Tree Roots and How Do They Affect Properties?

Tree roots are the underground structures that support a tree's growth. However, they can also cause significant damage to properties if left unchecked.

• Roots can grow up to 3 feet per year in some cases, leading to soil instability and erosion.
• Rooting can also damage pipes and foundation systems, causing costly repairs.
• Affecting drainage systems, roots can lead to water accumulation and property damage.

Signs of Tree Root Damage

A homeowner may not notice tree root damage immediately, but it can become apparent over time. Look for signs such as:

• Water accumulation around the property line.
• Sidewalks and driveways becoming uneven or collapsing.
• Crawling mud or slime on pavement.
• Rooting growth visible through walls or windows.
