Common Signs of Root Intrusion

Tree roots can be relentless, pushing through tiny cracks in your sewer line and expanding until they completely block wastewater flow. Here are early warning signs before they cause serious damage:

Recurring Drain Clogs

If plunging or using drain cleaners only provides temporary relief, it could mean tree roots have infiltrated your sewer line, growing thicker each time they absorb moisture. These roots trap debris, causing repeated clogs that won’t go away with DIY solutions.

Slow-Draining Sinks, Tubs & Toilets

When roots partially block your sewer line, wastewater struggles to pass through. This leads to sluggish drainage in multiple fixtures. It may be a sign that sewer line root intrusion is restricting flow deep within your pipes.

Gurgling Sounds in Pipes

Roots create uneven blockages inside your sewer line, trapping air pockets that force gurgling or bubbling sounds when water drains. If you hear these noises from your sinks, showers, or toilets, it’s a sign that root intrusion can be disrupting your system’s airflow.

Sewage Smells or Backups

As tree roots spread inside your sewer line, they can cause wastewater to back up into your drains, toilets, or even your basement. If you notice foul odours or raw sewage seeping up, your pipes could be at risk of complete failure. Get expert sewer line root removal immediately to prevent damage to your home and plumbing system.

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, AtlasCare provides fast, professional solutions to remove sewer line root intrusion before it leads to costly repairs.

What’s Included in Our Root Intrusion Solutions

Step 1: Drain Inspection & Root Detection

We start with a sewer camera inspection to pinpoint exactly where sewer line root intrusion has occurred and assess any pipe damage. If roots are in the early stages, we may be able to clear them using hydro jetting or mechanical root cutting before they cause serious blockages or structural issues. 

Step 2: Professional Root Removal

Once we confirm sewer line root intrusion, we remove the roots using the best method for your situation. Hydro jetting blasts them away with high-pressure water, while mechanical root cutting slices through stubborn growths inside the pipe.

Step 3: Pipe Repair & Reinforcement

If sewer line root intrusion has cracked or weakened your pipes, we use trenchless pipe lining to seal minor damage and create a root-resistant barrier inside the sewer line. For more severe damage, we offer pipe bursting, which replaces the broken section with a new, stronger pipe—without the need for major digging. Spot repairs are also available for localized damage.

Step 4: Preventive Maintenance & Future Protection

Keeping roots out of your sewer line requires ongoing maintenance. Regular sewer camera inspections help catch early regrowth, while scheduled hydro jetting keeps pipes clear. We also install root barriers to prevent trees from growing toward your sewer line, reducing the risk of future sewer line root intrusion.
