Why do tree roots keep clogging my Van Nuys sewer line?

Older the San Fernando Valley neighborhoods have mature trees whose roots invade the joints of aging clay and cast-iron sewer laterals. Hydro jetting clears them; lining or replacement stops it for good.

What's the difference between snaking and hydro jetting?

Snaking punches through a clog; hydro jetting scours the whole pipe wall clean with high-pressure water, which is far better for grease and tree-root buildup.

Why do my drains keep clogging?

In California, repeat clogs usually mean tree roots in an old clay sewer lateral, grease, or a cracked pipe — a camera inspection finds the real cause.

Are store-bought drain chemicals safe to use?

Not really — they corrode pipes and rarely clear the full clog or roots. Mechanical cleaning or jetting is safer and more effective.
