Will, I know from experience that root kill can badly affect the tree which has the roots into your pipe-line. If the offending roots belong to your valued birch tree, you might damage it with root kill. I made our apple tree very sick using root kill.

Old clay pipes fracture at the joints, they start to seep out water, the tree roots finger their way in and start to grow. I know you understand all that.

Having the line roto cleared then a plastic liner fitted will stop leakage and the roots go looking somewhere else for moisture.

JMHO

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
