While trees provide your home with much-needed shade and comfort, they can wreak havoc on your underground pipes. That is because tree roots are attracted to the moisture and nutrients found in your sewer lines. These roots can force their way into the pipes and grow further inside, causing leaks and clogs. Leaving them untreated for too long can completely break the pipes, leaving you with a flooded basement.
Besides regular inspection and maintenance, trenchless sewer repair in Tucson, AZ, by Ram Plumbing, Inc. can help you prevent tree root intrusion. Here’s how:
What Is Trenchless Sewer Repair?
It is a minimally invasive and disruptive pipe restoration method. Unlike traditional methods, it doesn’t involve major excavation. Instead, trenchless pipe repair only needs access points where we can inspect your pipes via a specialized camera and insert our epoxy-impregnated liner to restore the system.
How Does It Protect Your Pipes From Tree Roots?
Trenchless solutions provide a fast, safe, and effective way to safeguard your sewer lines from intrusive tree roots. Trenchless sewer replacement and repair can reinforce your existing lines by creating a new pipe within the existing pipe. It also seals any cracks, gaps, leaks, and other flaws, so they’re better able to withstand tree roots.
How Do You Remove the Tree Roots From the Sewer System?
At Ram Plumbing, Inc., we use a hydro jet, which blasts highly pressurized water to break down tree roots in the pipes and flush them out of the system. It also scours the pipe interior clean and leaves no trace of dirt, allowing us to efficiently perform trenchless pipe lining. Hydro jetting is safe and eco-friendly and works on all types of pipes.
Invasive tree roots can lead to severe clogs and costly damage. At Ram Plumbing, Inc., we can help you combat their repercussions with trenchless pipe replacement and repair. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
