Roots in Pipe New York. Have you had the unfortunate experience of having roots in your sewer and drain pipe cause a backup in your New York home? Roots will enter a pipe through the joints, cracks or any breaks in the pipe. Roots enjoy the moisture they find within the pipes – especially when the rest of the earth is dry. The picture below shows the extensive damage roots can do to pipes, and most of the time the damage is unknown until a backup happens. If you live in New York, we strongly suggest at least having your sewer and/or drain pipes televised so you know what’s going on below the surface. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to call or emails us at any time!
