Rooter Services & Tree Root Infiltration Solutions in Fort Myers, FL

Tree root infiltration is a common and serious problem that can lead to significant issues for your plumbing system. As trees grow, their roots naturally seek out moisture, often invading sewer lines and causing blockages that disrupt the flow of water and waste. This can result in slow drains, backups, and even pipe bursts if not addressed promptly.

For over 30 years, our licensed, certified, and background-checked technicians have provided the same-day service solutions that Fort Myers families trust to keep their systems flowing smoothly.

Signs of Tree Root Infiltration in Your Sewer Lines

Identifying the signs of potential tree root infiltration is the first step in preventing lasting damage to your plumbing system. The following are some of the most common signs of tree root infiltration to watch out for:

  • Slow drains: Persistent slow drainage in sinks, tubs, or toilets can indicate that tree roots are obstructing the sewer lines.
  • Frequent backups: Regular backups in your plumbing system, especially in the lowest drains of your home, can signal tree root infiltration.
  • Gurgling noises: Unusual gurgling sounds from your drains or toilets may be caused by tree roots disrupting the normal flow of water and air in the pipes.
  • Foul odors: A persistent foul smell emanating from your drains or yard could indicate that tree roots have damaged your sewer lines.
  • Lush patches: Unexpectedly lush and green areas in your yard can be a sign that tree roots have infiltrated and broken the pipes.
