Sewage backups from root intrusion in older lateral lines
Why it happens here
Oakwood's mature trees send roots into clay and cast iron sewer laterals, cracking the pipes and creating blockages. When the line backs up, sewage flows into the lowest part of the home, usually a basement or crawl space. This is contaminated water and requires full protective measures.
Our approach
We scope the line with an inspection camera to find the intrusion, extract and dispose of the contaminated water, and disinfect with Benefect and Fiberlock. We also HEPA vacuum affected surfaces and document everything for your insurance claim.
