Performing a Sewer Camera Inspection Before and After

We use professional video camera inspection equipment that lets us (and you) see where the problem is and how best to correct it. We may use a snaking tool that can cut and drag the roots out, or we may use hydro jetting equipment that blasts very high water pressure focused accurately on the root intrusion. The hydro jet can cut through the roots and clean the inside surface of the pipe at the same time.

A video inspection is done again to see that the pipe is completely clear of roots.

Permanent Solutions to Tree Root Intrusion

There are two permanent solutions to tree root blockage of your sewer lines. Both methods are trenchless sewer line repair techniques. This means that a complete excavation or digging of your yard to expose the pipe is not required. The trenchless methods can be done with minimal digging.

Trenchless Sewer Repair Methods Avoid Root Intrusion

Sewer Pipe Bursting

With sewer pipe bursting, a bursting head is pushed through the existing pipe, creating a new pipe as it travels to the end of the old pipe.

Sewer Pipe Lining

Using pipe lining, a new pipe lining is created using epoxy that results in a stronger, perfectly smooth pipe with no joints.
