Just been watching Sarah Beeney;s house falling down again and it got me thinking. We've got a pale green acacia tree growing outside our conservatory, its getting pretty big now, its about four years old. Do the roots of the acacia do damage to a house ?

No idea jomifl, you probably know more than me. Is it safe to leave it there or will the roots be a problem ?
