Tree root intrusion is one of the most common reasons sewer lines become damaged. Sewer lines contain a steady supply of water and nutrients which make them an inviting environment for tree roots.
Unfortunately, roots can find their way into your plumbing through cracks or fissures in your pipes causing issues such as slow drains, frequent clogs, and sewer system backups.

Preventing Tree Root Intrusion
Once you have your sewer line cleared of invasive tree roots, you want to keep it that way. We help our customers prevent future tree root intrusions with:
- Physical root barriers: Installing metal or thick wood barriers around the pipe help to keep it inaccessible to nearby tree roots
- Chemical root barriers: Chemicals such as copper sulfate and potassium hydroxide discourage roots from approaching the sewer line
- Drain camera inspections: Regular camera inspections ensure that your pipes remain free of tree roots and allow you to identify problems early on
