Frequently Asked Questions About Pipes and Root growth
What Happens When Roots Get Inside Water or Sewer Lines?
If they're not disturbed, roots will continue to grow into your pipes will multiple hair-like root masses at every point of entry. The roof masses then cause the pipes to clog with tissue, grease, and other debris, which can be a huge problem for your entire plumbing system. A complete blockage may occur if the roots are not removed and root growth is not impeded.
Once roots have entered your Boston home's pipes, they continue to grow and expand, exerting considerable pressure at the crack or joint.
