Tree roots and your sewer lines — what to know

Tree Roots and Your Sewer Lines — What to Know

Tree roots are a leading cause of sewer line damage, especially in older homes. As roots grow, they naturally seek out moisture, making your sewer pipes a prime target. Small cracks or joints in the pipes allow roots to infiltrate, eventually leading to blockages, slow drains, and even pipe collapse.

Signs of Root Intrusion in Your Sewer Line

• Frequent drain clogs or backups
• Gurgling sounds from toilets
• Unpleasant odors coming from drains
• Slow drainage across multiple fixtures

Ignoring these signs can lead to severe plumbing issues, including costly repairs or complete pipe replacement.
