DeepRoot Tree Root Barriers are patented mechanical guides that redirect tree roots down and away from hardscapes, preventing costly root damage while preserving the health and beauty of mature trees.
Are root barriers bad for trees?
A root barrier effectiveness will only redirect the growth of tree roots, so they do not grow and damage foundations, gas pipes or water lines. … The only con to a root barrier is if it isn’t correctly installed, it won’t work. The chance of trees being damaged by a root barrier is very unlikely.
How far from the tree should a root barrier be?
A root barrier can only be used when the available space is sufficient. As a rule of thumb: the distance between the barrier and the tree trunk should be at least 2 metres, this will depend on the diameter of the mature tree trunk.
