The Risks of Untreated Tree Root Invasions
Tree roots fixing, also known as root clearing or root excavation, is a common practice used to repair plumbing issues caused by tree roots in sewer lines. However, many plumbers and water treatment plants do not properly treat tree roots before attempting to clear them, putting homes at risk of costly repairs and property damage.
What Happens If Tree Roots Are Not Treated?
- Tree roots can grow up to 1-2 inches per year, causing damage to pipes and infrastructure over time.
- Untreated tree roots can lead to costly repairs, including replacement of damaged pipes and excavation of the affected area.
- Property damage can result in lost income and reduced property value due to necessary repairs.
