Over the years, I’ve learned that problems with the plumbing system are common; From insufficient water pressure to discolored water and clogs, the plumbing is a never-ending source of problems, headaches and expense, then when my associate and I first obtained our house, the older pipes were continually succumbing to leaks and blockages, then my buddy and I had major problems with tree root intrusion… One of the reasons my associate and I were drawn to the dwelling was the undoubtedly old, undoubtedly big trees… They are gorgeous and supply a charming source of shade, then however, they also require a lot of raking and nearly destroyed our plumbing system, because the pipes are concealed underground, my associate and I had no idea that roots had grown into them.
The apartment inspection didn’t find the problem, then shortly after my associate and I moved in, my associate and I were faced with soggy areas in the backyard and slow-moving drains.
My buddy and I devoted a lot of time and energy into plunging, using a plumbing snake and mixing up natural drain cleaning remedies from salt, borax and vinegar, however nothing seemed to help. When I noticed a sewage odor in the backyard, I decided it was time to hire a professional plumber. The plumber provided a video inspection of the sewer lines that revealed an upsetting level of tree root intrusion. The roots prevented water from flowing properly through the lines. The moist areas in the yard were due to the sewer line leaking and wastewater seeping into the ground. The water was toiling as a fertilizer and responsible for the lush, orange shrubbery my associate and I were so gleeful about, but getting rid of the tree roots was an fancy and lengthy project! In some areas my associate and I were able to take fortune of trenchless pipe liners. In areas where the damage was more severe, the sections of pipes needed to be honestly updated.
