Marietta, GA – For many Marietta homeowners, unexplained cracks in driveways or recurring plumbing issues are a frustrating mystery. The culprit is often the invasive root system of a nearby tree.
Trees Plus LTD is educating residents on this common problem, explaining that professional tree removal is often the only permanent solution to protect a home's vital infrastructure.
"Roots are powerful enough to destroy concrete and pipes," says Nick Sanchez, Owner of Trees Plus LTD. "Homeowners see the crack in their walkway but don't always connect it to the tree ten feet away. Our job is to make that connection and provide a definitive solution."
Identifying the Signs of Aggressive Root Damage
Trees Plus LTD advises homeowners to look for key signs of root damage. An expert tree service assessment is needed if homeowners notice:
- Cracks in driveways, sidewalks, or patios originating near a large tree.
- Buckling or lifting of paved surfaces creates significant tripping hazards.
- Recurring plumbing backups are often caused by roots invading sewer lines.
- Visible cracks in a home's foundation, especially near mature trees.
Why Pruning Isn't a Permanent Solution
A common misconception is that cutting the offending roots will solve the problem. However, root pruning is a temporary fix that can destabilize the tree and make it unsafe. The roots almost always grow back, continuing their destructive path. For aggressive root problems, the tree service provided by Trees Plus LTD often concludes that removal is the only permanent solution.
"Cutting a major root can make a tree unstable, and the roots almost always grow back to continue the damage," Sanchez explains. "For severe infrastructure conflicts, removal is the only way to eliminate the problem for good."
An Investment to Prevent Catastrophic Repairs
Ultimately, homeowners should view the cost of removing a problematic tree as an investment against future expenses. The expense of a professional removal is minor compared to the potential cost of repairing a cracked foundation, replacing a main sewer line, or repaving an entire driveway.
A professionally managed tree removal is a smart financial decision to safeguard a home's most critical components.
"Repairing a cracked foundation or replacing a sewer line is a massive, expensive project," notes Sanchez. "The cost of removing the tree that's causing the problem is a small fraction of that. It's a proactive measure that protects the core value of your property."
