Why Tree Roots Invade Drains
Tree and plant roots naturally chase moisture and nutrients. Cracks, joint leaks, or misalignments in older clay or modern plastic pipes give roots entry points. Once inside, they branch out, creating dense masses that trap debris and reduce flow—often leading to fractured pipes or full system failure if ignored.
Our Drain & Root Cutting Process
1. Detailed CCTV Inspection
Our underground pipe inspections in Preston use high-resolution CCTV to map pipe layouts and locate root intrusion.
2. Targeted Root Cutting
Equipped with rotating-blade root cutters, we safely slice through roots inside the pipe, restoring full flow without excavation.
3. High-Pressure Jetting
We follow root cutting with powerful water jetting to flush away root fragments, silt, and debris—ensuring your system is thoroughly clear.
4. No-Dig Patch Lining
If pipe walls are damaged, our trenchless patch lining seals cracks and reinforces the pipe interior, extending its lifespan without digging up your garden or driveway.
