Don't know if roots are the cause of your plumbing problems...
Common signs of roots in the main line:
Reoccurring drain problems.
Ground settling along the pipe line.
A
South East Total Service technician can determine if you have
roots in the line.
ROOT X is a safe, simple and effective solution to pipeline root
intrusion without hurting the tree or plant itself. The active ingredient
in this product will kill only the roots with which it comes in contact and
prevent their re-growth for up to one year. The environmentally safe chemical
combination helps speed up the natural decomposition of roots. When mixed
with water, ROOT X creates a foam that fills the entire
pipe and leaves a
residue above the water line to inhibit new growth.
The
South East Total Service technicians will add the product and
water to your
system through the outside clean out access. Some
situations, such as root blockage, require mechanical root cutting equipment to
be most effective. The use of this equipment alone is only a short term
solution because, as with pruning, the new growth comes back bigger and
stronger where it was cut. The bigger, stronger roots will eventually
destroy the line. An excavation and line replacement is the only way to
completely solve that problem. An annual treatment or maintenance program
will always cost less than replacing a broken line.
