Signs You Have Tree Root Intrusion
Tree roots are drawn to the moisture in your sewer line, and older or deteriorated piping materials are especially vulnerable. Left unchecked, tree roots can lead to extensive damage. Call us if you notice any of these signs:
- Sewage backups: If sewage is backing up into your sinks, tubs, or toilets, this is a strong sign that something is blocking your sewer line.
- Slow drains: Multiple slow drains in your home can signal a blockage caused by tree roots. If only one drain has an issue, you may only need drain cleaning.
- Gurgling noises: Gurgling sounds from your drains or toilets may indicate trapped air caused by roots obstructing the pipes.
- Foul odors: Persistent sewage smells often result from sewage backups or sewer gas leakage. Tree roots trap waste, contributing to these odors.
- Lush patches of grass in your yard: Areas of unusually green grass or standing water can indicate a cracked or broken sewer line with roots growing inside.
What To Expect When You Need Rooter Service
Len The Plumber Heating & Air offers comprehensive rooter services to restore your sewer line quickly and effectively.
Our process begins with a detailed inspection to accurately assess the problem and recommend the best solution. Here’s what you can expect:
- Video pipe inspection: We use advanced camera technology to inspect your sewer line and pinpoint the location and extent of root intrusion.
- Main line clog removal and drain cleaning: Depending on the severity of the blockage, we use specialized tools to clear the roots and restore proper flow.
- Sewer line repair or replacement: If the damage is significant, we’ll determine whether your sewer line needs repair or replacement. We offer both trenchless and traditional trench methods to suit your needs.
Preventing Tree Root Infiltration
Preventing tree root infiltration can save you from extensive repairs and keep your plumbing system running smoothly. Regular maintenance and strategic landscaping choices can help reduce the risk of tree roots entering your sewer line:
- Regular sewer inspections: Schedule preventative plumbing video inspections to catch early signs of root growth.
- Strategic tree planting: Avoid planting trees close to your sewer line to minimize the risk of root intrusion.
- Root barriers: Install physical barriers between tree roots and your sewer line to block roots from reaching your pipes.
- Routine drain cleaning: Regular professional cleaning helps prevent root buildup and keep your sewer line clear.
