Leaks or condensation in your home’s sewer pipes can attract tree roots in search of water and nutrients. At Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Rhode Island, we’re here to tackle sewer line issues caused by invasive roots impacting your sewer lines. Tree roots can enter your pipes through small cracks, gaps, or holes in the pipe sections. Once they access the water, the roots will start growing rapidly. Over time, more roots enter, widening the gaps, clogging your pipes, and eventually causing them to burst. Common warning signs include sewage backups in toilets or tubs, gurgling sounds from your toilet, slow-draining bathtubs, or toilets with empty bowls. To address these issues, our skilled service professionals provide effective solutions. Below are examples of methods industry professionals use for this problem:
