Rooting Services for Clear, Unblocked Pipes
Remove invasive roots and restore your plumbing’s flow.
Why Roots Invade Pipes
Tree roots are naturally drawn to moisture in the soil, and underground plumbing provides the perfect source. Sewer and drain lines carry warm, nutrient-rich water, which attracts roots—especially in older systems with cracks, joints, or loose connections. Even the smallest opening can release enough moisture to trigger growth in the surrounding soil.
Once roots enter the pipe, they expand quickly, feeding on the constant flow of water. Over time, they can cause serious blockages, slow drainage, or complete system failure. If left unaddressed, root intrusion can lead to major clogs, recurring backups, and even structural damage to your pipes. That’s why early detection and professional removal are key to protecting your plumbing system.

How Rooting Works
When tree roots invade your sewer or drain lines, they can cause serious blockages and long-term damage. At NJ Drain Master, we use mechanical augers and high-pressure hydrojetting to safely remove roots without damaging your pipes. Once the line is clear, we conduct a camera inspection to assess the condition of the system and determine whether any repairs or reinforcements are needed.
Our process is safe, thorough, and minimally invasive. We fully remove the roots—not just clear a path—and use cleanout access or low-impact entry points whenever possible. Most jobs are completed quickly, and we make sure your system is flowing properly before we leave.
