But have you covered all your bases in order to prevent an expensive sewer line repair?
Check聽outside because you may be聽overlooking聽the most聽destructive聽problem of all: tree roots.

Most of time, tree roots will leave聽strong,聽undamaged聽sewer lines alone. They聽usually聽only聽occupy聽leaking,聽cracked, or damaged lines buried within the top聽couple feet聽of the聽soil. When this聽happens聽the聽original聽damage聽does not only get聽worse, the tree roots can聽completely聽clog the聽sewer pipes聽and聽decrease聽the water flow,聽resulting in聽overflows and聽possibly聽flooding your home or building.
