Root Removal in North Jersey
Tree roots are the number-one cause of sewer backups in older North Jersey neighborhoods. Roots seek out the moisture and nutrients in your sewer line, slip in through tiny joint gaps, and grow into a dense mat that traps everything flushed down the drain. FlowMaster removes them, and tells you how to keep them out for good.

What is Root Removal?
Root removal mechanically cuts tree roots out of your sewer line and flushes the debris away. We then camera the line to find the entry points, and recommend permanent solutions, from a maintenance schedule to relining the affected section.
Our Root Removal Process
- 1
Cut the roots
A root-cutting head clears the mass and restores flow to the full pipe diameter.
- 2
Hydro-jet clean
Jetting flushes out the fine root hairs and debris that cutting alone leaves behind.
- 3
Camera the entry points
We find exactly where roots are entering so you can make an informed decision.
- 4
Stop the regrowth
We recommend the right long-term fix, scheduled maintenance, treatment, or lining the joint.
