A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore Offering Sewer Root Maintenance Special

July 1, 2012 - PRLog -- Right now, A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore is offering a sewer tree root maintenance special for only $275 to homeowners who have a cleanout on the inside of their home. If you are experiencing a slow draining sewer system because meshes of tree roots have grown in your pipes, A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore will come out to your house every 4 months and chop up the roots with a special 31/2 cutting head affixed to an electrical auger, which they feed through the cleanout. The periodic maintenance will extend the life of your sewer allowing you to put off indefinitely having to pay for a replacement.

According to Byron Graham, owner of A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore, right now the tree root invasion is very bad in the Baltimore area because trees haven’t been getting enough water this summer and so their root systems become very sensitive to any source of moisture. Frequently, they grow through tiny openings in local sewers though which they can contact the fluid within. Once in sewers, the roots grow rapidly, thicken, and widen the opening they came in through. In time, if not cut up the roots can literally break apart older clay sewer pipes forcing the homeowner to get a new sewer replacement.  

Not every sewer can be saved by the maintenance .Before beginning the treatments, A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore passes a video camera into the outdoor drainage pipe to determine the overall patency of the tube so they can advice the homeowner whether or not the plan will help.
