We can solve the root problem and protect your home against future problems
Tree roots are a major cause behind the blocks in your drainage system and sewer backups. These are often not only damaging to your home and property but can also potentially cause serious health issues for the inmates. Luckily, we are here to help you with the right technology, expertise, and intervention that will give you long-lasting results for root invasion problems in your property.
Root cutting
When you call us to report blocked drainage, we arrive at the location with expert technicians and modern technology and machinery that helps easily scan, locate and remove blocked tree roots. Our equipment includes machines that can penetrate deep with the help of cables and cutting blades, and prune the roots to clear the blockages.
CCTV camera inspection
Another method to detect and gauge the tree root invasion in the drain pipes is to use a CCTV camera. The camera is attached to a flexible cable which is later inserted into the pipe. The device captures the scope of the damage afflicted on the pipe and accurately locates the source point of the tree roots entering. The captured footage is reliable leverage you can use to quote a reasonable price for the repair work as well as serve as reference material for any future drain repairs.
If tree roots have managed to infiltrate your drains once, chances are it will happen again unless you remove the trees from the vicinity which is not always a good solution. The most ideal solution is to invest in a good network of strong and long-lasting PVC pipes or get pipe relining done with the help of our trusted team.
We can help install or upgrade your current pipeline and also set up a review point at the risk spot. This will enable easier access to the underground assets and rectify future tree root intrusion or other leakage issues. On top of all this, CCTV inspection also helps to identify damages or weak points in the structure and layout, which was way more difficult to identify and fix in the olden times. Based on the CCTV report, we can recommend whether you will have to repair or replace the drain pipes.
Hydro Jetting Process
Hydro jetting is the process of using highly pressurized water to eliminate built-up grease, sludge, and tree roots entangled and growing inside the pipes. The concentrated pressure breaks up even the thickest of roots and grime to restore normal functionality in the pipes. It gives the same ASMR satisfactory finish to the insides of the pipes like power washing of exterior surfaces.
Hydro jetting services can be used for clearing debris and tree roots in:
- Industrial pipes
- Household sewer and drain pipes
- Storm water pipes
- Ditches and trenches
How it works
The hydro jetting procedure is not very complex. All it needs is a lot of water, a machine that helps build and control pressure to the required amount, a hose, and a nozzle. Hydro jetting is done after a thorough CCTV inspection and assessment of the condition of the pipes. At the location, the technician accesses the damaged part through a section of the pipe called clean out. The hose fitted with the nozzle is then inserted into it. When the nozzle faces a block, the technician of the jetting system initiates a session of pressurized water until the blockage breaks up and clears.
