    We have 3 mature Alberta Spruce planted against our home. Do the roots of the tree go deep or are they surface roots. Concerned about roots in the weeping tyle

    Fairly shallow. They won't cause any damage to the house foundations, but might lift paving stones.

    Thank you. We were concerned about the weeping tile if the roots run deep
