Something many Skykomish property owners may not think about until there is a problem is whether or not their outdoor piping is at risk for root infestation. Whenever root-infested pipes become apparent, North Hill Sewer & Drain is here to provide you with quality services to get them running smoothly again.
About Root Intrusion
Anyone knows that roots grow in the direction of water so they can feed the plants and trees they are connected to. Unfortunately for homeowners, this often means underground piping connecting water or sewer outlets. Any small opening in a pipe from a jostled joint or fracture means that roots can start to invade. Once this happens, it can create a blockage that spells trouble.
Know the Signs
Several signs that any property owner can look for may indicate a looming blockage in the pipes. Some of these signs include:
- Sewage backup
- Sewage puddles on the lawn
- Bright green patches of grass
- Slow drains
- Lawn indentations
- Sediment in your incoming water
- Lower water pressure
- Odors coming up from your drains
- Recent insect or rodent infestation
