Worried about roots under your house? Tree roots near a foundation can cause real problems, or none at all. We help Edmonton homeowners tell the difference and deal with it the right way.
Tree roots near a foundation are a common worry, but the risk depends on the tree, the soil and the distance. In Edmonton's clay soils, large thirsty trees close to a house can contribute to soil movement and, in some cases, foundation issues, though roots rarely break through sound concrete on their own.
The answer is rarely to panic and remove the tree. Often the right move is managing the tree, root pruning, or in some cases removal. We assess honestly and never push a removal you do not need.
