What Is A Root Removal Service?

Root removal services target those pesky tree roots that have invaded your sewer lines, causing blockages and damage. It's not just about removing the existing problem; it's about preventing future headaches.


The Drain Doctor utilizes advanced techniques, including video camera inspection to pinpoint the intrusion's exact location and assess the severity. We then use specialized equipment to cut and remove the offending roots, followed by the application of RootX—a powerful, environmentally friendly herbicide that inhibits future root growth.



Addressing root intrusion promptly is essential to prevent further damage to your sewer system, which could lead to costly repairs or even replacement.

What is a “No Dig” Pipe Repair?

We believe in a thorough and effective approach to root removal to ensure long-lasting results and peace of mind. Here's how we tackle those pesky invaders:

Inspection: We start by using a specialized video camera to inspect the interior of your sewer lines. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location of the root intrusion, assess the severity of the damage, and determine the best course of action.

Root Cutting: Once we've identified the problem areas, we utilize powerful, specialized cutting tools to remove the existing roots from your sewer line. This process is designed to be minimally invasive, ensuring minimal disruption to your property.

Herbicide Application (RootX): To prevent future root growth, we apply RootX, a professional-grade herbicide specifically designed for sewer systems. RootX works by creating a dense foam that expands throughout your pipes, reaching even the smallest root tips. This foam targets and kills root tissue on contact, providing long-term protection against future intrusions.

FAQs About Professional Root Removal Services in Connecticut

  • What are the signs of tree root intrusion in my sewer line?

    Tree roots can be sneaky, but they often leave clues. Slow drains are a common early sign. You might also notice gurgling sounds coming from your drains or even experience sewage backups. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to call in a professional plumber sooner rather than later.

  • How often should I have my sewer lines inspected for root intrusion?

    If you have mature trees on your property, especially near your sewer lines, we recommend having your sewer lines inspected annually. Older homes are also more susceptible to root intrusion due to the age of their pipes.

  • Is RootX safe for my plumbing and the environment?

    Yes, RootX is specifically formulated to be safe for your plumbing system. It targets root systems without damaging pipes. It's also an environmentally responsible solution, unlike some harsh chemical alternatives.

  • How long does the root removal process take?

    The timeframe for root removal can vary depending on the severity of the intrusion. However, in most cases, we can complete the job within a few hours.
