Residential Sewer System Back-Up Services in Columbus, OH

The underground pipes that are part of your home's plumbing system are vulnerable to being invaded by tree roots. Roots can easily slip into the tiny cracks, seams, and sections of your pipes, searching for nourishment. Their growth continues to increase, eventually damaging or bursting your pipes. Some common signs you’re experiencing tree root intrusion include your toilets or bathtubs backing up, gurgling noises coming from your toilets, bathtubs not draining properly, or a lack of water in your toilet bowl. Our service professionals offer the following solutions for residential tree root intrusion:

• Hydro Jetting – This highly effective solution utilizes high-pressure streams of water to thoroughly blast away any tree roots, debris, or grease build-up from your sewer line.
• Pipelining – Our team can effectively resolve sewer line damage permanently by lining and sealing sewer pipes using a sleeve to eliminate water leaks. Pipelining is an effective solution that avoids digging trenches, so there’s no need to tear up your property.
• Maintenance – One of the best ways to avoid sewer line damage is by scheduling preventative sewer line maintenance services with the team at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Columbus. We’ll thoroughly inspect your drains and clean them to ensure they’re kept clear of any grease build-up or debris.
• Rooter Work & Drain Cleaning – Our rooter work services involve punching through tree roots to clear out your sewer line while restoring its functionality. Then, our team will inspect the extent of the tree root intrusion problem and recommend permanent solutions.
• Pipe Bursting – We use hydraulics as an effective, permanent solution. We can break apart your current piping and install a new seamless pipe in the old one's place.
