Sewer Root Removal in New Athens — what matters locally
At a median build year of 1972, New Athens laterals are old enough for joints to have opened and the street trees are old enough to have found them. Root intrusion is among the most common calls we take in Harrison County.
Silver maple, willow and poplar are the most aggressive offenders. A sixty-year-old specimen has a root system that comfortably reaches a lateral under the front lawn.
When New Athens properties need sewer root removal
- Repeat backups in the same line, several times a year
- Gurgling toilets or slow drains across multiple fixtures
- Unusually lush or soggy grass along the sewer route
- A camera showing root mass at a joint
- Mature trees within reach of the lateral — most of New Athens's established streets

Answers
Sewer Root Removal in New Athens — FAQs
Will the roots grow back?
If the defect stays open, yes — typically within one to three years, faster with willow, poplar or silver maple. Cutting manages the symptom. Lining the pipe removes the opening entirely, and that is what ends it.
Do I have to remove the tree?
No — and we would advise against it. The next tree's roots behave identically. Fix the pipe and the tree stops being a problem.
Do chemical root killers work?
They have a limited place. Nothing poured down a drain repairs the crack the roots came through, so treat them as maintenance rather than a solution.
