In the video you will see how Darius, one of our top dogs, has visited the site and has examined the rooted drain. With the help of a CCTV for inspection along with a high-pressure water jetter, he has cleared the roots inside the drain.
We all know that roots start to grow in the area where their moisture, hence they start to grow inside the drains and creating excessive damage to the property. Darius has many years of experience and makes clearing the roots look easy.
Inspecting the blocked drains
Darius found that there was another issue to consider. Due to the bad fitting, the pipe changes from the urban wear (clay pipes) to the PVC and it is not aligned properly. After further inspection and water jetting, he found more locations where the tree roots have penetrated inside the drains. This is a huge benefit of CCTV inspections. If the job was only half done properly and the drains appeared back to normal, you’d be calling a plumber back out in no time.
