Signs There Are Tree Roots in Sewer Lines

Root growth is problematic, and there may be several reasons why tree roots can create an issue for your property. Tree roots can easily encroach upon your home’s foundation, causing damage to the sewer lines due to impacted plant and tree roots, erosion, leaking, sewer water backups, and various other damages.

Once the roots enter the sewer pipes and grow web-like, a complete blockage may occur if they’re not removed. Signs you have roots in sewer lines can include: 

  • Strange Smell: Unpleasant smells coming from your drains or yard could indicate tree roots blocking sewer pipes and causing waste to back up.
  • Water Draining Slowly: If multiple drains in your home are slow, it could be a sign of roots blocking the flow in the sewer line. 
  • Toilets Don’t Flush Efficiently: If toilets aren’t flushing as well as they used to, the pipes are likely being invaded by roots. 
  • Gurgling Sounds: Unusual noises coming from drains or toilets when using water suggest airflow disruptions caused by tree roots. 
  • Increased Water Bill: A sudden spike in your water bill could suggest leaks or damage from tree roots in sewer lines. 

 

How Do Tree Roots Get Into Sewer Lines?

Tree roots naturally seek out moisture, making sewer lines a prime target. Over time, small cracks, loose joints, or aging pipes create openings that allow roots to infiltrate. 

Once inside, roots can even continue to grow and expand to exert considerable pressure –  it is not uncommon for a pipe to break or collapse as a result. To avoid the need for extensive drain repairs, it is important that your sewer lines be properly maintained.  If left untreated, the tree roots can cause major issues, and the consequences can be very costly.
