How Root Infiltration Affects Your Sewer Pipes

Sewer Pro offers innovative sewer repair services that help you stay ahead of costly mistakes. Underground pipelines transport unhealthy wastewater away from homes and businesses, and failure of these systems could cause a health crisis in your area.

Uncovering the Root of the Problem

Trees typically frequent areas where sewage systems persist because trees provide shade and other benefits to neighborhoods. However, problems start when pipes start to break down. Tree roots interfere with the function of wastewater pipes in several ways. First, sewer lines on your property may crack and create leaks. This causes water and organic materials to seep out of the line and attract tree roots. A simple trenchless pipe repair will stop this outward flow and help keep roots away and avoid a costly sewer line replacement.

If not repaired, tree roots will grow into the source of the leak and pipe. This will create one or more blockages that will eventually cause your toilets, tub, and sinks to backflow. You may need to replace sewer line system components at this stage.

Trenchless Repair Services Save Money

Extensive and costly sewer pipe line repair may be avoidable. For example, a leaky sewer line will permeate the soil with moisture and organic material, and you may detect an odor on your property. This is the best time to call in Sewer Pro and trenchless experts. We use a minimally invasive approach to inspect pipes and seal leaks, cracks, or other imperfections before it is too late.
