How We Remove Root Ingress
We utilize a comprehensive range of industry-leading equipment to resolve all types of root ingress issues:
-
High-Pressure Water Jetting: Our powerful, van-mounted jetting units are the ultimate solution for tough external root blockages. By blasting water at extremely high pressures, we can effortlessly cut through and flush away tree roots, scale, and silt, clearing your pipework completely.
-
Electro-Mechanical Equipment: For internal root intrusions (such as in toilets, baths, and kitchen sinks) where water jetting isn't suitable or safe, we use specialized mechanical cutters and coring machines. These flexible steel cables navigate through complex indoor pipework to safely break apart and extract root masses without causing any mess or water damage to your property.
Post-Removal CCTV Inspections
Removing the immediate root ingress is only half the battle. Once your drains are flowing freely again, we don't just pack up and leave.
Where possible, we carry out a CCTV drain inspection using our specialized, high-definition waterproof cameras. This allows us to look deep inside your underground pipework to determine exactly why the root ingress occurred in the first place. Whether the issue was caused by minor cracks, displaced joints, or a collapsed pipe, we will identify the root cause and provide expert recommendations for remedial works to prevent the issue from ever happening again.
