Whether they are maple, oak, pine, or other desirable species, having trees in the yard of your New York home can add considerable beauty and value to your property. But trees can also pose a threat to your plumbing. Tree roots can grow into any defects in your sewer lines, searching for moisture and nutrients, and in the process, they can cause slow drains, recurring clogs, or even full sewer backups.
When you need a qualified professional to remove tree roots and repair any damage to your sewer lines, talk to our team at Isaac Heating & Air Conditioning. We have served western and central New York for over 80 years, including Rochester. We are here to help with all your plumbing, drain, and sewer needs, including tree root infiltration services.
Avoid the mess and cost of a sewer backup. Call Isaac today to request tree root infiltration services anywhere in Rochester or the surrounding areas.
Signs You Have Roots Infiltrating Your Home’s Pipes
Tree roots often take months or years to grow into a sewer pipe, so it can be easy to miss the signs of a problem until you have a significant clog or a backup on your hands. To catch the problem as early as possible, look for the following indications of tree root infiltration:
- Recurring clogs:Â If your drain or sewer lines clog frequently, it may indicate that tree roots are partially obstructing the main sewer line.
- Clogs in multiple drains:Â If more than one drain clogs at once, it is a sign that the clog is in the main sewer line itself, possibly caused by tree roots.
- Damp spots in the yard: If your yard is damp or flooded near the sewer lines, the pipe may have developed a major leak due to tree root damage.
- Foul odors:Â A sewage smell in your yard or your home may indicate that a sewer backup is occurring.
- Wastewater backups:Â If sewage and wastewater start spilling out of drains installed relatively low, like floor drains or bathtub drains, it is a sign that your sewer line is completely blocked and backing up.
Our Diagnosis Process & Repair Services
If you suspect a tree root problem at your Rochester home, call our team at Isaac. We will complete a video camera inspection to examine the inside of the sewer line and determine the cause of your clogging issues. If tree root infiltration is the culprit, we will recommend the best solution for your budget.
Removing minor tree root infiltrations with a hydro jet system or a power auger might be possible and cutting away roots so your pipes flow freely again. But this is only a temporary solution, and when the tree roots grow back, you must repeat the service.
For a more permanent solution, we offer sewer line replacement and repairs. Our team will dig up the affected pipe, replace that section, and ensure your sewer line works appropriately once the repairs are complete.
