FAQs
If roots get inside the underground pipes, we send our camera down & check where it is & how much the roots have protruded into the pipe, if possible, we can jetter them to break them up. Once this is done we recommend replacing the pipe because the problem will continue to occur again, until there is no more room for the roots to get in.
In the worst case scenario where the roots have completely taken over the pipe, a significant portion of the line would need to be replaced.
