Root Intrusion in Godalming
Haslemere Based Specialists Clearing Root Intrusions in Guildford and All Surrounding Areas

Root intrusion occurs when the roots of a tree or a shrub grow around and in the drainage or sewer systems on a property. The expert team at R.J.F Drainage Services are highly experienced at clearing root intrusions for commercial clients and domestic customers. From our base in Haslemere, our team completes clearances on properties in the local area and builds in Guildford, Godalming and all of the surrounding areas.

Root intrusion in a drain or an inspection chamber can and will cause problems. It can cause flow restriction and eventually blockages which will impact the performance, hygiene and functionality of properties.

Causes of Root Intrusion

Roots can enter drainage systems in many ways. Our expert team are accomplished at clearing all types of intrusions in all scale of properties. Some of the most common reasons for root intrusions are: 

  • Broken Pipes

  • Cracked Pipes

  • Broken Manhole Covers

  • Uncovered Gullies

Roots grow towards the drainage systems on properties in and around Haslemere, Godalming and Guildford because the roots are attracted to the moisture in the drains and pipes. The moisture can act as a type of natural fertiliser for the roots. When roots are left unchecked, more severe cases can occur. These cases include the roots causing structural damage to the pipes and chambers, meaning large scale and costly repair work may be required. 

Inspection and Solution

Serious damage from root intrusion can be prevented with early detection. The experts at R.J.F Drainage Services can undertake a prepurchase property survey for buyers so any issues can be established early on and fixed. Once clients start having problems with their drains, we recommend calling our reliable, friendly and professional team who can clean and inspect the drainage issue before it becomes a bigger problem.

We provide both visual inspections and can use a CCTV drainage camera to undertake thorough surveys.

Once the survey has been completed and root intrusion has been discovered, our team will assess the extent of the growth and the damage. We will then deal with the intrusion by cutting the roots out and high-pressure jetting. Our experts can also install a structural liner to repair the damage or in more severe cases, excavate the area and repair the damage.
