Foundation Repair and Concrete Work: Dannegger Brothers Contracting, Inc – https://danneggerbrothers.com/ (Maryland Heights, MO)

We get asked this often because sometimes tree root systems can tear up the foundation of a home, sidewalk, or driveway.

What really causes foundation or sidewalk damage is changes to the soil. A drought would cause the soil to shrink as well as the tree roots to push through areas to look for more water. A lot of rain would do the opposite and cause some soil to swell and maybe even tree roots as well. These changes are what causes concrete to shift and crack. These shifts can cause problems in your foundation that you’d want the knowledge and experience in waterproofing and foundation repair that Dannegger Brothers Contracting can perform for commercial and residential projects.

Leaf Removal: Horstmann Brothers – https://www.horstmannbrothers.com/about-us/ (St. Louis, MO)

These guys are very helpful also family and locally owned like us.

Gutter Cleaning: Scott-Lee Guttering – https://www.scottleeguttering.com/st-louis-gutters

They have been owned by the same folks for 35 years and are local to St. Louis and St. Charles.

Those beautiful large oak and maple trees, just to name a few, that are all over the St. Louis area tree-lined streets do shed those leaves every fall. A lot of debris and can make it’s way into your gutter causing overflow or blockages. Overflows can harm the roof, foundation, lawn or landscaping. A regular clean out is highly recommended.
