Root Intrusion Removal

Tree Root Intrusion Removal in Saskatoon

Saskatoon’s older neighborhoods (with clay tile pipes and big poplar trees) are notorious for sewer root problems. Roots sneak into tiny cracks, expand, and block your line. Drainrite’s team clears them fast and keeps them from coming back.

When Roots Invade, We Clear the Way! 🌳🚰

Tree roots are one of the most common—and destructive—causes of sewer line blockages in Saskatoon homes. Even a small crack or joint in an old clay or PVC pipe can attract thirsty roots searching for moisture. Once they get in, those fine roots grow fast—creating a tangled mess that slows drains, causes backups, and can eventually collapse your sewer line.

At Drainrite Sewer & Drain Cleaning Co., we specialize in professional tree root intrusion removal. Using cutting-edge RootBlaster equipment and decades of local experience, we safely clear roots from your drains and help prevent future growth—without unnecessary digging or costly pipe replacement.

Signs of Tree Root Intrusion

If you’re noticing any of these warning signs, you may already have roots in your sewer line:

💧 Slow drains throughout the house

🚽 Frequent toilet backups or gurgling sounds

🏡 Sewage smell or soggy spots in your yard

🔁 Recurring clogs even after snaking

📉 Older homes with original clay or cast-iron sewer pipes

Don’t wait until the line fully collapses—call the Saskatoon root removal experts at Drainrite today.

Our Proven Root Removal Process

We combine technology, experience, and precision to fully restore flow in your sewer system:

Video Camera Inspection:

Our DrainSight camera inspection locates exactly where the roots are entering and how severe the blockage is. You see what we see—so you know exactly what’s going on underground.

Mechanical Root Cutting:

Using our GrindRite™ flex-shaft cutting system, we mechanically grind through roots, scale, and debris—restoring full pipe diameter without damaging the line.

High-Pressure Hydro Jetting:

For stubborn or thick root masses, we use Hydro -DrainBlast high-pressure water jetting to blast away leftover roots and flush the line clean.

Preventive Treatments:
We offer root control maintenance that inhibits regrowth and extends the life of your sewer system—keeping roots from returning soon.
