Protect Your Foundation with Root Barriers
Root barriers stop tree roots from getting underneath the concrete slab foundation and pulling moisture from the soil, which can cause the foundation to settle.
In places like Dallas-Fort Worth and other parts of North Texas, the soil is typically expansive shrink-swell clay soil. This means that the soil is much more susceptible to changes in moisture — changes which can happen when tree roots suck moisture from the soil under your house's foundation.
Root barriers can be made of concrete or plastic (corrugated vinyl, for instance), but Ace Foundation installs a tough, flexible material designed to resist cracking due to soil movement or new root pressure.
Ace Foundation can inspect your home and install root barriers where appropriate. With over 50 years of experience, we can recognize problem areas before they cause damage to your home. This saves you money in the long run and means other home projects, such as remodeling, are impacted
