Trees and other woody vegetation are capable, in specific soil types, to cause indirect damage to built structures through the removal of moisture from the soil, causing seasonal expansion and contraction of soils resulting in foundation movement and cracking of buildings.

Far too often the damage is assumed to be caused by trees leading to unnecessary felling or reduction work. Through detailed survey and monitoring Tree Research are able to determine the true cause and make appropriate remedial management solutions.
