Tree root removal clears invasive roots from sewer lines to restore flow and prevent recurring blockages and backups.

Signs you may have roots in your sewer line

• Clogs that keep returning even after cleaning
• Slow drains throughout the house
• Gurgling drains or toilets
• Sewage smells outside near the foundation or yard
• Backups during rain (roots can trap debris and worsen restrictions)
• Roots visible on a camera inspection

Why it’s common in Hamilton + GTA

Many homes have:

• mature trees close to the line
• older clay tile pipes with joints that roots can penetrate
• seasonal ground movement that opens small gaps roots exploit

How we do it (the right way)

1. We typically confirm root intrusion with a TV inspection
2. We remove roots using the appropriate cutting method
3. We flush and clean the line to clear root debris
4. We recommend next-step prevention:
   • routine maintenance
   • sewer lining when appropriate for long-term protection

Seasonal note

Roots grow aggressively in warmer months, but backups often occur in spring/fall when water flow increases and debris accumulates.
