Tree Roots Lead to Broken Pipe and Water Damage in San Ysidro Home?

We restore water damage 24 hours a day in San Diego.

Our local Otay Mesa/San Ysidro team responds to water damage emergencies often throughout the year in San Ysidro, and sometimes tree root intrusion is the cause of pipe failure. In San Diego County, eucalyptus, sycamore, and some oak tree species have root systems that can intrude underground into plumbing systems, infiltrating pipes and causing blockages and pipe failures leading to flooding and water damage.

Any tree with an extensive root system can pose a risk to underground pipes, so if you have trees growing near any plumbing pipes you may want to take preventative measures and install root barriers or seek professional advice for the management of root growth near your pipes. To minimize the risk of flooding from broken pipes, it's important to regularly inspect your plumbing system and address any issues before they become a bigger problem.
