Benefits of Installing a Root Barrier with Cablelock
  • Environmentally Friendly Solution
    At Cablelock, we prioritize sustainable solutions that protect both your property and the environment. Installing a root barrier offers an eco-friendly way to address invasive roots without harming the plant or the surrounding soil. Root barriers create a natural defense against invasive roots, without the use of harmful chemicals, allowing trees to grow while maintaining the balance of the ecosystem.
  • Long-Term Protection Against Root Damage
    Root barriers are the most effective long-term solution to preventing roots from damaging your home or building’s foundation. With rapid urban development, trees are often planted too close to structures, which can lead to structural issues. A root barrier installed by Cablelock alters the path of root growth, protecting your foundation from damage by redirecting invasive roots, ensuring the stability of your property.
  • Moisture Retention for Healthy Growth
    Unlike other root control methods that deplete the soil’s moisture or rely on chemicals, root barriers preserve the natural moisture in the soil. This allows trees and plants to thrive without compromising the environment or damaging the soil. The root barrier system ensures that both your landscape and your foundation are protected while promoting healthy plant growth.
  • Simple and Efficient Installation
    Root barriers are easy to install and cause minimal disruption to your landscape. At Cablelock, we use high-density polyethylene (HDPE) root barriers, which require only shallow digging—typically 1 to 2 inches deep. Our installation process is quick, ensuring minimal impact on your property while providing maximum root control.
Best Materials for Root Barriers

To ensure long-lasting protection, Cablelock uses top-quality materials like low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheets. These materials are lightweight, durable, and resistant to moisture, making them ideal for harsh weather conditions. They provide superior strength and flexibility, ensuring your root barrier stands up to the test of time and environmental factors.

Choose the Right Solution for Root Control

Physical barriers can be ineffective over time as they are too dense to break down or allow roots to penetrate. At Cablelock, we recommend chemical barriers with growth-stunting compounds that safely and effectively control root expansion. This allows roots to grow properly without penetrating waterproof membranes or causing damage to surrounding structures.
