Not only is the root system usually massive, but roots are incredibly persistent and can push through the toughest of material in the ground. Unfortunately, this includes home foundations.<\/li>\n<li class=\"none\">When trees planted near the home spread their roots, they can come in contact with your concrete slab or foundation walls if you have a basement or crawlspace. <\/li>\n<li class=\"none\">Although concrete is a sturdy and rigid building material, tree roots can put enough pressure on your foundation to crack it. In worst-case scenarios, this can result in costly structural damage that puts your home at serious risk.<\/li>\n<li class=\"h52header\">\n<h5>Persistant Issue After Removal:<\/h5>\n<p>If you are looking for a solution for a root system potentially growing into your foundation, cutting down the tree may be your first thought. Unfortunately, dead roots will eventually decay and pose additional risks to your foundation.<\/li>\n<li class=\"none\">As the wood rots, it will eventually collapse and leave a void in the ground. If this void is beneath your foundation, you may experience severe damage or even structural instability where the foundation is no longer supported.<\/li>\n<li class=\"contentcomments none\">\n<ul class=\"post4 dash line hheader\">\n<li class=\"h52header\">\n<h5>How to Identify This Issue:<\/h5>\n<p>If you have trees growing near your home and you are concerned about the roots threatening your foundation, you can head into your crawlspace or basement to look for signs of damage.<\/li>\n<li class=\"none\">If you see horizontal cracks or wide vertical cracks on the foundation walls inside where the tree is planted, you may have an issue with intruding tree roots.<\/li>\n<li class=\"none contentimg\">\n<div class=\"column115\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/treeroots_sm_01.jpg\" alt=\"ways tree roots are costing you money\" width=\"752\" height=\"501\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-38076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/treeroots_sm_01.jpg 752w, https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/treeroots_sm_01-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 752px) 100vw, 752px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"creditimage\">copyright image by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twenty20.com\/photos\/94e24f67-15b8-43e9-b312-e6ffa46e125c\/?utm_t20_channel=bl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">twenty20.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"none content\">\n<div class=\"paragraph-row\" style=\"margin-top: 15px !important\">\n<div class=\"column12\">\n<table id=\"tb2SPEC2\" class=\"dataGrid bloginside wide\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"tabletitle\">\n<td colspan=\"3\" class=\"novwhite tabletitle\">Tree Root Damage <em>(from google images)<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"spacershim\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"spacershim\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"spacershim\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite proimage top mobile\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"subtitle answer\">Foundation Damage<\/td>\n<td class=\"answer\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=tree+root+house+foundation+damage&amp;tbm=isch&amp;ved=2ahUKEwirxt2HlLb0AhXXrXIEHRt-AxIQ2-cCegQIABAA&amp;oq=tree+root+house+foundation+damage&amp;gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQAzoHCCMQ7wMQJ1CXEli1GWC9G2gAcAB4AIABQ4gB1QKSAQE3mAEAoAEBqgELZ3dzLXdpei1pbWfAAQE&amp;sclient=img&amp;ei=IOSgYau2ONfbytMPm_yNkAE&amp;bih=967&amp;biw=1920\">view<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite proimage mobile\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"subtitle\">Driveway Damage<\/td>\n<td class=\"answer\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=tree+root+driveway+damage&amp;tbm=isch&amp;ved=2ahUKEwip5oy6lbb0AhUMhHIEHXlrAycQ2-cCegQIABAA&amp;oq=tree+root+driveway+damage&amp;gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQAzIICAAQCBAHEB46BwgjEO8DECdQ8xRY0SRg-CZoAHAAeACAAT-IAcADkgEBOZgBAKABAaoBC2d3cy13aXotaW1nwAEB&amp;sclient=img&amp;ei=luWgYanDPIyIytMP-daNuAI&amp;bih=967&amp;biw=1920\">view<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite proimage mobile\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"subtitle\">Sidewalk Damage<\/td>\n<td class=\"answer\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=tree+root+sidewalk+damage&amp;tbm=isch&amp;ved=2ahUKEwi2iNTplbb0AhXnqHIEHYp5BpkQ2-cCegQIABAA&amp;oq=tree+root+sidewalk+damage&amp;gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQAzIECAAQGDoHCCMQ7wMQJzoICAAQCBAHEB5QgRFYmClgvytoAHAAeACAAUqIAcoDkgEBOZgBAKABAaoBC2d3cy13aXotaW1nwAEB&amp;sclient=img&amp;ei=-uWgYbajLOfRytMPivOZyAk&amp;bih=967&amp;biw=1920\">view<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"none\" style=\"margin-top: 70px !important\">If you have a slab foundation, you&#8217;re more likely to notice signs of instability inside your home.
