In Maple Ridge the larger lots and mature trees mean two things for drainage: more root intrusion into older drainage and sewer lines, and more surface area to drain. The combination of clay soil and established trees is a common cause of both blocked drains and failed perimeter systems. We camera the lines to see whether the problem is cleanable root growth or a structural failure that needs repair.

Roots keep blocking my Maple Ridge drain. Do I need to cut the tree?
Not usually. If the pipe is structurally sound, root cutting and jetting on a schedule can keep the line clear. If the roots have come through a crack or the pipe has collapsed, a repair or replacement is needed — but removing the tree is rarely the answer.
