Tree roots are one of the biggest causes of damage to sewage pipes. Because roots are constantly searching for water sources, sewage pipes become a breeding ground for root infiltration. If pipes are cracked, collapsed, or corroded, it’s much easier for roots to get inside, grow, and cause blockages and other structural issues.
There are two ways tree roots can damage your drains—internal root intrusion and external root damage. Internal root intrusion is when fine hair-like roots enter microscopic holes in the pipe and grow and spread. As they congregate, they develop into a mass that blocks the pipe. External root damage is when the roots don't infiltrate the pipe but rather wrap around it, putting pressure on the pipe and ultimately causing it to collapse.
Sewer Surgeon describes several methods for clearing tree root infiltrations. But first, your drain must be checked for obstruction. To do this, a Sewer Surgeon expert uses CCTV camera equipment to inspect the drain. The camera’s flexible head is fed through the drain, providing a continuous live video feed of the drain and allowing the expert to identify the location of the blockage.
Once located, the expert can either use jet blasting or tree root treatment to clear the obstruction. Jet blasting involves shooting streams of high-pressure water into your pipe to clear it out. It’s an eco-friendly option that not only removes tree roots but also cleans the pipe’s walls. Tree root treatment utilises RootX, an aquatic herbicide that is deposited into the drain to clear it out. Like jet blasting, it is also eco-friendly, reliable, and cost-effective.
Even though tree roots may be cleared, damage to your pipes may remain. To fix this damage, Sewer Surgeon recommends pipe patching, junction repair, or UV pipe relining, all of which they offer in addition to their pipe clearing services.
Keeping your sewage pipes clear of tree root intrusion allows your sewage system to operate at optimal performance, which in turn, can reduce your utility bills and save you money on future repair costs. It can also prevent the spread of contaminants, which if left to fester in your drain, can cause damage to nearby plants and wildlife.
