Tree Root Problem Root problems tend to occur in the older areas of the City where trees are more established and the systems servicing these areas consists of older asbestos cement and clay tile pipes which usually do not have permanent seals at the joints, and roots can penetrate the pipe over time. Air and nutrient-rich water can seep from the pipes, creating an ideal growing medium for roots, at any depth. Any roots that manage to contact this habitat will grow faster and proliferate quickly. The roots can penetrate the pipe joints and cracks, then fill the pipes with a root mass. If the roots are allowed to continue growing, they may exert enough pressure to spread the cracks of the joint or point of entry, increasing the problem. The use of plastic pipes can help eliminate root problems, as long as the pipes joints are properly sealed.
Cutting the roots out of the pipe is a temporary fix. Like pruning it can encourage even more growth. Treating the roots and filling the holes with special grout or relining the pipe is the most effective treatment to help prevent re-growth.
