Tree Roots Can Harm Your Foundation

Are your trees planted too close to your homes foundation?

• Trees are searching for water and they will be drawn to the moisture under your home. A medium size tree drinks around a 100 gallons of water each day. At this amount it doesn't take many days to dry the soil under your foundation. This is where most foundation problems start by changing from moist to dry in soil. When it goes from wet to dry you get shrinkage in soil. If it goes from dry to wet you get expansion in soil pushing on foundation.
