Can Tree Roots Damage Sewer Lines?

Some of the most common and most frustrating blockages come from tree roots (which is where the name “rooter service” comes from!). Tree roots can get into sewer lines through extremely small cracks that form in most sewer lines over time. Once the root gets in, it quickly obtains nutrients and water through the sewage that’s flushed away, causing the root to grow, expand, and quickly fill the entirety of the line. Before long, the whole line becomes completely blocked by a massive tree root that can be difficult to get rid of.

Signs you have tree roots in your sewer line include:

  • Foul odors in or around home
  • Sinkholes in yard
  • Frequent toilet backups
  • Unexplained extra-green patches of grass
  • Slow-flushing toilet

Roth Home offers professional rooter services in Portland, delivering quality results that take care of your plumbing while eliminating your tree root problem. We also offer repairs to keep tree roots out, ensuring that your sewer line remains clear and free-flowing.

Tips for Preventing Clogs

While it’s pretty much impossible to avoid drain clogs altogether, there are certain steps you can take to limit the likelihood that a blockage will form in your plumbing system’s drains.

The best way to avoid clogs is to be careful about what you put down the drain. Avoid allowing any of the following items to be washed down drains:

  • Coffee grounds
  • Eggshells
  • Meat
  • Pasta
  • Rice
  • Flour
  • Vegetable peels
  • Fruit pits
  • Bones
  • Medicines
  • Cooking grease
  • Oatmeal

Additionally, to prevent toilet clogs, you should avoid flushing any unapproved items, such as paper towels, excessive toilet paper, feminine hygiene products, or items that accidentally fall into the bowl.
