yes , the roots will spread in time ( if not already), I am surprised that it was allowed to be built so close as the roots can interfere with drains + foundations, regards Terry.

Hello If the house foundations were taken down to the appropiate depth and ground heave precautions were put in place there should not be a problem and if its a new build this should have happened The builder should have all the relevant information. Hope this helps, Rowan Groundworks Ltd
