WARNING SIGNS

Drain Problems Caused by Tree Roots

Tree roots can grow into damaged pipework without being obvious from the surface. These common drainage problems can be signs that roots have made their way inside.

Blockages That Keep Coming Back

If the same drain keeps blocking after being cleared, intrusive roots may be catching waste and narrowing the pipe.

Water Draining Too Slowly

Sinks, showers and toilets taking longer to empty can indicate root growth or another restriction further along the line.

Strange Noises From Your Drains

Bubbling or gurgling sounds can occur when water and air struggle to move freely through affected pipework.

WHY ROOTS GET IN

What Brings Tree Roots Into Your Drains

Tree roots are naturally drawn to moisture. Small cracks, loose joints and ageing pipework can give them a way in, where they continue growing and interfere with your drainage.

Cracked drain pipes Loose pipe joints Ageing pipework Leaking pipes Ground movement Damaged pipe sections Nearby trees and shrubs Moisture around pipework Deteriorated pipe joints Existing pipe defects

ROOT REMOVAL SOLUTIONS

Solutions for Tree Roots in Your Pipes

Getting rid of tree roots is only part of the job. We locate where they have entered, remove the intrusion and assess the pipe condition to help reduce the chance of the same drain problem coming back.

CCTV Root Detection

A CCTV drain inspection helps locate tree root intrusion and shows where roots have entered or affected the pipe.

Tree Root Cutting

Our tree root cutting service removes roots growing inside drain pipes to reopen the affected section and improve water flow.

High-Pressure Water Jetting

High-pressure water jetting helps flush cut roots, debris and build-up from the drain after the affected area has been identified.

Drain Pipe Repairs

If roots have entered through cracks or damaged joints, repairing the affected pipe can address the entry point and help prevent further problems.

Pipe Relining

Where suitable, pipe relining can repair damaged sections from the inside without digging up large areas around the property.

FAQs

Tree Root Removal FAQs

How do tree roots get into drain pipes?

Tree roots are attracted to moisture and can find their way into vulnerable drain pipes. Once inside, continued growth can restrict flow and contribute to blockages.

How much does tree root removal cost?

Tree root removal cost depends on the location, extent of the root intrusion and condition of the affected pipe. The cost of tree root removal can also vary with access and the repair required. We assess the problem first and provide upfront pricing before approved work begins.

Can tree roots damage drain pipes?

Yes. Roots can grow through existing cracks and weak joints, potentially worsening pipe damage and contributing to recurring blockages.

Can tree roots grow back after removal?

Roots may return if the pipe defect that allowed them in remains unresolved. A CCTV inspection can help identify damaged sections and whether further pipe repair is needed.
