Tree roots are naturally attracted to sewer pipes with leaks or excess moisture as they search for water and nutrients. If you're dealing with root-related sewer line issues, Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Greater New Hampshire can help. Roots often enter plumbing and sewer lines through small cracks, gaps, or holes in pipe sections. Once they find moisture, they grow quickly and fill the pipe, causing more damage over time. As more roots invade, they can enlarge the openings and block the flow, eventually leading to a burst pipe. Common signs of this serious issue include toilets or bathtubs backing up, toilets making gurgling sounds, slow-draining tubs, or an empty toilet bowl. Our highly skilled and friendly team provides many expert solutions to these problems. Below are examples of the popular services professionals will use to address sewer line issues from tree roots:
