Protect Your Property from Hidden Dangers of Tree Roots

What are Tree Roots and How Do They Affect Residential Plumbing Systems?

Tree roots can cause significant damage to residential plumbing systems by compromising the integrity of pipes, valves, and fittings. As tree roots grow deeper into the soil, they can exert pressure on the surrounding structures, leading to costly repairs or even complete system failure.

Signs of Tree Root Damage

• Water leaks from pipes and fixtures
• Moldy or mildew growth on walls and ceilings
• Musty odors and dampness in attics and crawl spaces
• Poor drainage and water accumulation around the foundation

Protecting Your Property from Tree Root Damage

The good news is that tree root damage can often be prevented by hiring a professional arborist to inspect your trees before they start growing roots. A thorough assessment and treatment of the roots can help prevent costly repairs down the line.
