The root barrier for garden bed are specifically designed to keep roots confined to a designated area within the landscape, ensuring they don't spread and cause harm to surrounding plants or the environment. Without a root barrier in place, roots can often damage driveways, walkways, hardscapes, home foundations, and septic systems.

We provide two distinct types of tree root barriers tailored to meet your specific site needs.

Panel Barrier: Our panel barrier features integrated vertical guides designed to direct tree roots downward, minimizing the risk of stability issues caused by constrained roots. This barrier consists of a series of panels connected using 4-way joint strips, which ensure a secure connection and allow for either straight connections or 90-degree turns.

HDPE Sheet Barrier: This style is made from thick, 80 mil plastic with a smooth surface, offering excellent retention of tree roots. Available in 80’ and 100’ rolls (depending on the width), this barrier’s continuous length reduces installation time.

Connecting HDPE Pieces

There are two ways to connect multiple pieces of HDPE together. One method is to overlap the HDPE and use our double sided seam tape to connect the two pieces. The other method is to butt the ends together and use our 17 mil single sided seam tape to create a solid connection.

Overlap Method
(for underground installations)

The overlap method is best used when connecting two pieces of HDPE in a buried application. Due to the overlap, a ridge is exposed which is not ideal when installed in exposed vertical or flat installations in high traffic areas as there is a possibility of an object catching on the ridge and pulling the two pieces apart.

In a below ground installation, the large overlap area provides a more water resistant connection as well as enhanced protection against tree and plant root intrusion.

End to End Method
(for exposed installations)

When installing HDPE on a wall, floor or anywhere that is exposed, the end to end method provides a secure connection and does not leave any ridges exposed to potential catching by a person or object.
