Professional Tree Root Removal From Drain Pipes
Tree roots are one of the most common causes of recurring blocked drains. They naturally seek out moisture and can enter even the smallest cracks in your pipes, causing slow drainage, repeated blockages, and long-term pipe damage. At AIM LOCAL, we provide professional root intrusion removal services across Sydney, the Central Coast, and Newcastle to restore proper flow and protect your plumbing system.
Our licensed plumbers use proven methods to locate, cut, and remove invasive tree roots without unnecessary digging. Whether the issue is affecting a residential property or a commercial site, we act quickly to minimise damage and prevent future blockages.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do tree roots get into drain pipes?
Roots enter through small cracks, joints, or weakened sections of pipes in search of moisture and nutrients.
Will removing the roots damage my pipes?
No. We use controlled cutting and jetting methods designed to clear roots safely without harming the pipe structure.
Can roots grow back after removal?
They can if the pipe is already damaged. We inspect the pipe and may recommend relining or repairs to prevent regrowth.
Do you need to dig to remove tree roots?
In most cases, no. Our CCTV inspections and internal cutting tools allow us to remove roots without excavation.
Is root intrusion an emergency?
It can be. Severe root blockages can cause sewage backups and flooding, which require urgent attention.
