What is Tree Root Ingress?

Tree roots naturally make their way through the soil looking for nourishment, so if they encounter a drainpipe, they will attempt to breakthrough. If this happens, it can be detrimental for your drainage system, as roots will continue to grow through your pipes. This can cause severe blockages as well as structural damage to your drains that will render them useless.

There are some key indicators to take note of that will let you know if tree root ingress has happened in your pipes. The following signs are similar to those that suggest a drain blockage has occurred:

• Slow drainage
• Low water pressure
• Unpleasant odour
• Resting Water

The key is to catch tree root ingress early on to prevent catastrophic damage from occurring. If the roots manage to break through your pipe, the only solution is complete drain replacement, which is both time-consuming and can be costly. It is imperative that a professional drainage team such as No1PHD handles the problem, as they will have the tools and procedures required to carry out effective repairs. The sooner you catch the problem, the less disruption you’ll have to endure.
