Tree Root Intrusion in Sewer Lines: Drain Cleaning Services in Newmarket
Tree roots, which are always looking for sources of water, may find their way into a sewer line and eventually block it up. In Newmarket, Ontario, where many of the streets are lined with mature trees, this tends to be a rather common problem. Drain cleaning services in Newmarket can help people detect tree root intrusions into sewer lines.
Key Signs of Root Intrusion
Do not ignore these telltale signs—slow-draining sinks, toilets, and showers; gurgling drains; foul odours coming out of drains or your yard; and lush patches of grass growing in your lawn—all of which may signal that there are tree roots in your sewer lines. To a thirsty tree root, your sewer system is an open invitation.
Our Advanced Detection Methods
Using state-of-the-art equipment, we can diagnose tree root intrusion in your sewer lines through high-resolution video camera inspection, which allows us to inspect the interior of your pipes visually and locate the exact section of pipe affected as well as the depth of the invasion.
We also employ advanced sonar technology to check for potential obstructions and assess pipe integrity in specific locations where it can be difficult to see what is happening above the sewer level. In combination with our close-circuit television visual diagnostic, we can provide you with an accurate understanding of the issues affecting your sewer system and prescribe the most effective means to resolve your root intrusion problem in the shortest possible time.
Effective Drain Cleaning Solutions
Hydrojetting, which is essentially powerful water-based jets cutting through the roots and debris to restore the original flow of your pipes, is one of the methods we at Volkov Plumbing typically rely on to address sewage root intrusions. For larger, more deeply rooted blockages, we have mechanical augers, which are specifically designed to cut through and remove tough root systems before they can start clogging your pipes.
