good news,bad news,,,
camera says sewer line is in good shape, no cracks or defects,its clay tile once I get a few feet from house. Good news is it is NOT orangeburg which I was told most these houses of this age were.
Bad news is it is not deep enough to allow below basement line level. other bad news is the line has LOTS of tree roots the camera guy said needs removing. Then he said to use root-x
I have never rented a sewer cleaning machine,does it clean tree roots effectively? Does removing them help get rid of them or would the root x take them out?
its an easy 30-40 foot straight run to middle of street,,,any other options? Access is best possible too,basement end off for construction so unobstructed straight shot in,not even a cleanout to fight.
last piece of pipe in basement is cast so that is coming off and plastic installed for line thru new to yet be built basement block wall,,,about waist high from floor. Stainless steel clamp with rubber inside to transition from plastic to clay tile?? Guess I get out the trusty dusty spade and start digging
