Tree roots are one of the most common—and damaging—causes of drain and sewer blockages. Over time, even small cracks in pipes can invite aggressive root intrusion, leading to backups, flooding, and pipe damage. 911 Plumbers provides expert Root Removal Hydro Jetting in Pretoria, using powerful water pressure to safely eliminate roots and restore pipe flow without digging.

Why Tree Roots Invade Pipes

Roots are naturally drawn to moisture and nutrients. When underground pipes develop leaks or cracks, they attract nearby tree roots, which then grow inside the pipes. This can:

• Slow or completely block water flow

• Cause repeated backups in toilets, sinks, or floor drains

• Lead to costly structural damage if left untreated

How Hydro Jetting Removes Roots

Our hydro jetting process uses extremely high-pressure water (up to 4000 PSI) to:

• Cut through root blockages: Water is blasted with enough force to slice and flush out roots.

• Clean pipe walls: All remaining debris and root fragments are cleared from the system.

• Prevent regrowth: Jetting removes the buildup that roots cling to, delaying future intrusion.

Signs of Root Intrusion in Your Plumbing

• Frequent clogs, especially in multiple drains

• Gurgling toilets or slow flushing

• Water backing up in showers or tubs

• Unpleasant odors from drains

• Overflowing exterior drains or inspection ports
