𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 Tree roots that have invaded may be the reason for multiple sewage backups or clogged drains. Roots are drawn to sources of water and nutrients, and they will eventually grow into and around a sewer line. A sewer pipe can collapse due to the strain produced by roots and soil. However, there are a few different ways to avoid the growth of roots in a sewer line. Install PVC Pipes A plastic pipe is more resistant to tree roots if it is free of splits and cracks. During installation, all connections and joints need to be sealed. A contractor must glue pipe sections together, using enough to cover any gaps, to prevent roots from growing in the sewer line. Plant Trees with Limited Root Growth Trees with smaller roots are better to plant next to a sewer pipe. Instead of using trees with more invasive roots such as sycamore, willow, oak, maple, elm, aspen, birch trees, and shrubs. Large root systems are also seen in mulberry, poplar, beech, and eucalyptus trees. Create a Barrier You can prevent tree roots from growing into sewer lines by installing an inaccessible barrier. It will direct their growth in the direction of areas without pipes. Landscape firms sell several kinds of tree root barriers. Panels or sheets can be found depending on the product. In addition to buildings, these barriers can protect concrete, driveways, landscaping, and foundations.
