Tree Roots in Drains or Pipes

Tree roots in drains or pipes are the most common cause of a blocked sewer system. While DIY or chemical methods can provide a quick fix, it is a routine maintenance task and expense. Trees are magnificent wonders of nature. If cast by a dry spell, the roots can go up to 20 metres searching for water.

Then they can detect the tiniest of cracks on drains and pipelines and slither inside. While this phenomenon portrays the beautiful wonders of nature, it can cause serious plumbing problems. Of course, you can flush rock salt or sulphuric acid down the toilets or dedicate a weekend to digging, chopping, and removing tree roots.

But these quick fixes can either harm the environment or make the problem more severe in the future. Thus, your plumbing system needs to be tackled professionally to detect blockages, fix the problem, and offer preventive measures. Well, fret not because Same Day Trades has got you covered. Be it plumbing, electrical, cooling or heating problems; we offer top-notch services for your everyday problems.

I’m so happy with the worked completed by James, I would recommend him to anyone. He made an easy to understand quote. He arrived in a timely manner and was very thorough. He even helped reset my dad’s VHS, so he could watch his old German videos. James went above and beyond our expectations.
