Trees are the real jewels of every landscape. They are stunning features that shade your property from the heat of Florida. We suggest that you be aware of the safety and health of your family and your property when you maintain trees.

As beautiful as trees may be, their roots can cause structural damage if they're spreading out under the soil too closely to your home. Trees can also cause roof and exterior damages in case they are located close enough to cascade over your home. This and other issues could occur if your trees aren't planted correctly. The problem can be avoided by complying with Lawn Wrx's tree planting guidelines.

 

Poorly planted trees could cause structural damage to your home

If trees aren't cultivated properly they can result in structural damage in various ways. Some of the issues you should be aware of include the following:

 

• The biggest threat to your property comes from tree roots that are massive. Trees are humble giants, but they require the appropriate amount of space in order to grow their large and astonishingly sturdy roots. Tree roots can spread under your soil regardless of how much space they are given. This can lead to structural damages. Trees that are not properly planted can break the sidewalks, driveways, and even the foundations of homes.

• Poorly planted trees can cause roof damage and blockage of gutters. If a tree grows close to your house its branches may hang above your roof. The hanging branches could harm your roof and accelerate the rate of erosion. If your tree sheds branches and leaves then they'll end up in the gutters. This could affect their drainage function and cause damage to your roof. All you need to do is help and guidance from tree removal Georgiatown.
