In Alpharetta, GA, Action Septic Tank Service repaired this septic line that was completely blocked by tree roots. Take a look at the before-and-after photos.
Roots from trees and shrubs seek moisture found inside your pipes. They enter through cracks and joints in pipes and spread. This causes sewage backups into the home and blockages inside the septic tank. These blockages can eventually destroy an entire septic (or sewer) system.
Some ways to prevent tree root intrusion include:
1. Avoid planting fast-growing trees in your yard.
2. Keep trees from being planted near your septic system.
3. Have your septic system inspected annually and your septic tank pumped every 2-3 years.
4. Check your pipes. Older septic and sewer pipes made of concrete or clay are most likely to attract tree roots.
5. Be aware of the signs of leaking pipes, such as patches of greener grass, damp ground and odors.
