While trees add much-needed shade, comfort, and beauty to your home, they can cause trouble with your sewer line. As tree roots grow, they seek water and nutrients, and unfortunately, your sewer line can provide just that. Over time, these roots can infiltrate the pipes, causing clogs, backups, and other issues.
Fortunately, you can take steps to protect your sewer line from tree roots. Discount Drain Cleaning®, your expert sewer line cleaner, shares handy tips:
Plant Trees Away From the Sewer Line
A general rule of thumb is to plant trees at least 10 feet away from the sewer pipes. If you are unsure where your sewer line is located, you can call a plumber to help you locate it.
Conduct Regular Inspection and Maintenance
It’s important to schedule routine inspections and sewer pipe cleaning in Las Vegas, NV. An expert can use an advanced camera to inspect your sewer line and identify potential issues, such as tree roots. Early detection can prevent major problems down the road.
Install a Root Barrier
One way to prevent tree roots from penetrating your sewer line is to install barriers between the roots and the pipe. These barriers are usually made of wood or metal. Set them up at least five feet deep and two feet away from the sewer line. For the best results, you may enlist the help of a tree root removal expert.
You can count on the pros at Discount Drain Cleaning to keep your pipes safe from invasive tree roots. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.

I had the cartridge in my shower go bad and couldn't shut off my water. I called Walter at 6:00 am. He told me to shut off the water main and waited for him to get to my house and he fixed it in a matter of minutes, about 10-15 to be exact. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues one might have.

We received a call from one of our tenants at a commercial retail center that all their toilets and sinks were backing up. We manage the property from out of town and rarely have plumbing issues, but now needed a plumber in a hurry. The tenant runs a childcare center and small children need access to bathrooms! After calling several companies who were too busy, one of them recommended Walter at Discount Drain. Lucky for us! Walter answered his phone immediately. He was friendly and committed to helping us out. He arrived at the property at the promised time and resolved our issue, keeping our tenants happy. His invoice arrived overnight with great detail and the price was reasonable. We won't hesitate to call upon Walter again.

Outstanding service. Was on time, price quoted was price charged, drains open and working in 30 minutes !! No mess to clean up, and was explained everything. Forget the ripoff plumbers in this city, that sell with the fear factor, and work you don't need. This is the only company to call.
