Root Barrier Repair & Replacement in Arlington, TX

Root Barrier Repair & Replacement in Arlington, Texas

Old liners in Arlington fail at the joints and at the top edge. We replace shallow, brittle sheet instead of stapling it.

Arlington’s trees are not all HOA live oaks. Fielder and south Arlington still have pecans on original laterals and city sidewalks that were never isolated. Viridian is the twelve-year parkway story. Lake lots add cypress and a water table that keeps surface roots active in August.

I-20 is the south run. We stock 24- and 36-inch HDPE because almost every HOA walk is that depth class; original ranches often want the deeper lateral panel.

2000s landscape liners are in the ground all over Plano and North Dallas. They are brittle. Roots went over or through. Replacement is a new trench, not a staple.

Bamboo jobs fail when the lip was buried in mulch. We reset the lip and close the loop.

If the original run was in the wrong place — too close to the flare, too far from the walk — we move it. Repeating a bad line is how you pay twice.

Why this is a Arlington install, not a copy of another suburb

Arlington mixes original Mid-Cities ranches, apartment loops, and commercial pads along 183 and the Tollway. ADA walks out of tolerance are a commercial ticket. Ranch streets are pecan laterals and cedar-elm heave.

Soil. Blackland Prairie clay through most of the city; wetter lots toward Lake Arlington

Trees. pecan, live oak, cedar elm, hackberry, bald cypress on lake lots

Houses. 1960s–80s brick ranches, south Arlington two-stories, Viridian new-build walks Typical damage: original city walks, pecan aprons, lake-lot cypress, HOA notices in Viridian

We restore the parkway or yard when the trench is closed. If Arlington has city sidewalk rules or an HOA spec, we follow it. 811 locates run before every cut.
