Tree root intrusion inside the drain pipe
The drain pipe at this property in Ponsonby, Auckland was blocked by tree roots. The tenants were experiencing slow wastewater flow across kitchen sinks and shower drains. We were called to inspect what was causing the slow drain. Our crew conducted a CCTV inspection and found a tree root intrusion 2 meters away from the gully trap. After showing the footage to the tenants and property owners, we used our hydro jet to cut the tree roots. We then further inspected the drain with CCTV to find any potential blockages or tree roots. Once the inspection was finished we then ran a water flow test to make sure the drain flow was back to normal usage.
