Professional Tree Root Removal Service
Elite Rooter offers a wide range of services to keep your home’s plumbing in perfect shape. Our team of professionals are aware of the issues that homeowners face and are equipped to tackle them. One of these issues is tree root intrusion that not only damages pipes by poking holes in them, but also cause blockages leading to poor drainage.
Elite Rooter offers multiple services to help you tackle this problem efficiently. From removing the tree roots using snaking and hydro jetting, to repairing the damaged pipes and lines through trenchless repairs, certified professionals at Elite Rooter take care of it all for you.
Common Problems Caused By Tree Root Intrusion
Tree root intrusion can cause various issues across your entire house. If left unchecked, it can manifest in the form of slow drainage of water throughout the whole house. It can also cause an unpleasant odour because of stagnant water. Since water is not draining properly, toilets and drains can also get backed up causing further problems. Tree root removal can also damage sewer line and pipes causing holes and cracks in them that need to be replaced or repaired.
How Do You Get Rid of Roots in Pipes?
Tree roots can infiltrate and grow within pipes and sewer lines causing blockage, leakage, and damage to pipes. But how to get rid of them? Tree roots can be stubborn and if left unchecked for a long time, can be quite difficult to remove. Elite Rooter deploys modern techniques to clear pipes and sewer lines.
Hydro-Jetting
Hydro-jetting involves inserting a hose into your home’s pipes and using highly pressurized water to remove roots and dirt and debris buildup. If you are curious to learn more about hydro-jetting, check out this article to learn more about what it is.
With hydro-jetting, a plumber will flush out any debris left behind once the roots are destroyed. Hydro-jetting is an effective way of removing roots, and a professional plumbing company should only complete it.
Snaking Your Pipes
Eletric Snaking: A specialized drain auger is one sure method of killing and removing roots from your pipes. The end of an auger has a specialized mechanical saw or cutters which a plumber can operate to destroy any invading roots in your pipes. This process is also called snaking and can cost a few hundred dollars.
Auger tools are special tools all plumbers in the Los Angeles area carry. You may have a plastic drain auger in your home for bathroom clogs.
How Elite Rooter Handles Tree Root Removals
Elite Rooter has several options when it comes to picking the right method for tree root removal. Our team follows a thorough and perfected procedure to rid you of the problem from start to finish. From locating the problem to fixing your sewer lines afterwards we take care of it all.
Locating The Root Intrusion: This involves finding out where in your pipes or sewer line the blockage is. The entire process is trenchless which means access is gained through a small hole dug in the ground through which a camera is inserted. The camera is guided to the area of blockage.
Removing The Tree Roots: Various methods are available for tree root removal. Hydro jetting, eletric snaking, and rooter machines are used. Picking the right one for your job depends on the plumbing professional based on your budget, the extent of blockage, and the condition of the pipes at the time of tree root removal.
Repairing The Damage: When the root is removed, the cracks and holes in the pipe need to be repaired. This repair is also trenchless, meaning only two small access points are required to install new pipes or put in a new lining to close up gaps and cracks in the existing pipes.
Why You Need Tree Root Removal
Tree roots can spread out underground up to three times farther than a tree’s branches. Removing the roots, even if a tree has been cut down, can prevent:
- Further growth that can endanger the same pipe or other sewer/water lines.
- Roots from lifting sidewalks and other pavement, causing safety hazards.
- Damage to foundations due to root intrusion or soil subsidence as roots absorb moisture.
- In some species of trees, roots grow close to the surface and can be exposed through soil erosion, freezing and thawing, and human activities. Removing them can eliminate trip hazards or obstructions that can damage lawn mowers.
- Sometimes, roots can wrap around the trunk of a tree, restricting the supply of water and nutrients. Being proactive can both protect the tree and prevent tree root intrusion.
Hiring a plumber to check plumbing lines for possible root trouble can prevent issues later on. Through proper maintenance and repairs, you can avoid major issues that would otherwise cost more money to fix.
