Sewer backups in your home can lead to costly damage and serious health risks for your loved ones and visitors. A major culprit behind these messy and hazardous backups is tree root intrusion. Roots can enter sewer lines through tiny cracks, gaps, or openings. Once they reach water, their growth speeds up, expanding the cracks and eventually causing blockages or even a burst pipe. Other frequent causes of sewer backups include the following:
- Faulty pipe installation
- Objects lodged in drains
- Ground shifting from weather changes
- Cracked or ruptured pipes
