Trees, Root Growth, and Foundation Damage
Hi there,
I am planning to plant some tress in my backyard. I'm worried though about eventual damage by roots growing into my house's foundation (we do have a basement). Specifically, I'm considering planting a Japanese maple. I'm thinking of planting this 20 to 25 feet away from the house. Is this sufficient? I would like to keep an open mind about other trees. Are there particular species I should be worried about in terms of their roots damaging my house's foundation?? (eg. Oak, Maple, etc.)? I can plant as far away as 60 feet away from the house. Thanks so much for the help! |
