Default Cotoneaster roots causing structural damage?

The message
from Gordon H contains these words:

When I removed a very mature Cotoneaster shrub (bugger of a job!) the
roots did not appear to be tough enough to damage property.


It's hydraulic pressure that causes the damage - even mushrooms will
break through asphalte to have a breather.
