Commercial Tree Root Removal

Pipes are commonly used for commercial water systems. Since our pipes are under ground, we don’t usually pay attention to or notice the condition that they’re in. It used to be that we couldn’t detect any problems before they occurred, but now new technologies have made pipe inspections easy, and regular video inspections are therefore recommended.

Tree root problems in pipes are very common. Most pipes are now made of plastic PVC and this material is very strong and not too prone to tree root problems, but they can occur. Older pipes are more likely to have problems with tree root invasion.

Pipe Blockages and Leaking

Tree roots in pipes can cause blockage and can also cause your pipes to break down over time. It is a good idea to check for and take care of tree roots on a regular basis. To get rid of your tree root problems, Rooter-Man can quickly determine where the leak or the blockage is with video imaging systems. Once this is known, our licensed professionals will remove the tree root and repair the damages to your pipes.

Tree Root Removal

The most common way to fix tree root problems is to use a drain snaking rooter. This tool uses a rotating auger to cut the roots and get rid of them temporarily. The roots are going to grow back eventually so it would be wise to get your pipes snaked regularly. Another solution that is commonly used to remove tree roots from pipes is water jetting. This is a highly pressurized stream of water that will flush the roots out of your pipe system.

Depending on the severity of the root damage we may also suggest that you repair your pipes. New technologies allow us to install a new pipe inside the existing pipe. This can create a pipe that tree roots will have a harder time getting through, and can be a good option if you want to minimize future problems or if your pipes are significantly damaged.

It is always better to prevent the problem instead of waiting for it to be full blown. Rooter-Man can check and determine what the problem is for you.
